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.
