    How ya goin', I may be wrong in hich someone will correct me Im sure but I believe you can back up x-box games to cdr-w if the file size is less than the space on the disc, which wouldnt be many games, other wise there may be a way to segment the game so it will fit on 2 or 3 discs, unsure of that tho. Most x-box's will not read CD-r so CDR-W is the way to go, and make sure it has a dark copy side as the x-box can be very picky about cd's. You will also need a DVD drive in your pc to read the original game b4 backing it up. As i said not entirely sure so someone may wanna correct me

    there are plenty of games that fit on a cdrw, but you cant read an xbox game in your PC. it has to be ftp'd over from the xbox itself.

    thanks for the relies but are there any known methods in segmenting the games so that they may fit onto 2 or three cd-rw's
    thanks again in advance
