The fact of the matter is there aren't any "universal" methods that will work with all protections and with any burner.
We have all the stickies I listed above to get folks off to a good start and if they encounter problems thay can post here with the methods and settings they've tried and we can help them from there.
Why don't you cut and paste Mentor11's method, go to http://club.cdfreaks.com/, post it and ask them their opinion of it. Those guys are hard core and they'll tell you exactly what they think.
Come back and give me a link to the thread with their responses. If they think it's great I'll formally apologize to all involved. If they think it's as ridiculous as I do then Mentor11 is still an idiot.

Far Cry is protected by SafeDisc 3.15 so the natural choice for backing it up would be Alcohol 120% using the SafeDisc 2/3 profile. This is what I used and set the write speed to 4X. The copy process can be slowed down by the fact that SafeDisc uses a massive amount of errors as part of the protection so when you see those don't worry - it's normal and will stop around 3% into the read.
I also used used BlindWrite5 to make a working copy by first using BW5 Tweaker to skip extracting topology (not needed for SafeDisc) and set the write to 4X. SafeDisc can usually be read at maximum speed but I usually set it lower simply because I like to hedge my bets.
The reads were done in my Lite On 166S DVD ROM and the burns were done in both my Plextor Premium and Plextor PX-708A.

Oh it slaughtered it alright. My Plextor 708A did nicely as well. Copies played in all three of my drives, no emulation. I love those drive more and more everytime I use them.
Good to see you around, boss :)
