Heyya all... i was just wondering if i could back up 2 small games on 1 dvd... ie prince of persia and initial D, because dvd-r's are expensive.. and this way i could save some $$. I know that i could just back up the ISO, but could i play them?

also was wondering, how would u backup a game if it were more than 4.7gb

You can back up as many games as can fit but you wont be able to load them. Each game (i thi8nk) needs the boot sector to load, and as theres only 1 per dvd = 1 game per dvd

Games over 4.7gb are backed up by removing video/online component/demo's etc

I suppose if you know how to makes games for the PS2 you could make some kind of menu but it's probably a lot more trouble than it's worth.

I honestly have no idea. Personally I think it'll probably be a few years before anybody figures out how to do this as how it required advanced programming knowledge of the PS2. It'd be cheaper just to put 1 game to a disc if you look at the cost of time you would invest in trying to figure it out. You can get cheaper blank DVD's for something like $.65. Is it really worth it?
