How to Easily Copy XBOX Games!

By Sam Lockwood

We've learned that finding out how to copy XBOX games has been on a lot of gamers' minds, because we've been receiving tons of questions on this topic lately. Most people have no problem creating copies of music CDs, but don't know how to go about copying their games.

In this article, we're going to show you just how easy it is for you to make copies of your XBOX games. Before we get started, let us make an important clarification.

Our goal in writing this article is not for people to make illegal copies of XBOX games. What we are trying to accomplish is to show you how to make backups of your own games. This is a perfectly legal and legitimate way of protecting your games in case of accidental damage.

Alright, let's get started. And don't worry ? we won't be tossing a lot of difficult and complicated technical jargon at you. Copying your XBOX games is actually much easier than you might think.

In case you're wondering why you can't just use the same CD burning software that is already on your computer to burn copies of your games, the reason is simple.

This is because XBOX games can only be copied using a specially designed software program.

As it happens, most all game discs are encoded with a kind of copyright protection. This encoded information keeps your computer from being able to decipher and copy the information on the disc - unless you have the help of a special program installed on your computer. Without this program, you computer won't be able to make a copy of the game.

A handful of companies have created computer programs designed specifically for making backup copies of your games. After installing the program on your computer, you will be able to override the copyright protections on the disc to make copies of your XBOX games.

After downloading and installing one of these programs, copying your XBOX games is amazingly simple. The program does all the work ? you pop in the game, let the computer program copy it to your hard drive, then put in a blank DVD-R disc and let your computer transfer the data to the clean disc.

It really is just that simple. It's so easy even a baboon could do it...

One last piece of advice ? there is no need to overpay for this kind of program. I have seen these programs priced at more than $100. This is practically highway robbery, since the most highly rated program costs about $30 or $40. Even though some companies charge more and try to promote their programs with fancy marketing, you won't be getting more for your money.

This method describes the easiest way to copy XBOX games on your computer. It's simple, and a perfect way to create back up copies of all your game discs. Happy copying!
