How to Copy Xbox 360 Games

I’m sure like me, you have thought many times about finding a way to duplicate your Xbox 360 games. After a lot of regular trips to the video game store, having to replace damaged and lost discs. It was time to investigate into finding a method.

The first thing I came across whilst searching the internet, was the use of mod chips inserted into your Xbox 360 console. Yes this can be a great way to copy and play games. But with myself having a low level of technical ability there was no chance I was willing to open my precious Xbox up with a screwdriver, and try and install some mod chip. Then I discovered you could purchase a console with a mod chip already installed. Great! Someone else with a much bigger brain than mine has already done the hard part for me. But the price! No thank you. One, I already have a console, so why would I want a second, and two, having a mod chip installed will void your warranty and possibly stop you from playing online. With the red ring of death a common thing, there was no way I was going to eliminate my consoles warranty.

I then discovered that you could install some kind of software on your computer, insert the game you wanted to copy and burn it onto a blank disc. Just like you would a CD or DVD. I thought this would be worth while looking into as the cost was miniscule compared to the other alternative, and it seemed very easy for the likes of me, people with little or no tech knowledge.

So I got my hands on this software and this is what you had to do:

1. First instal the software on your PC. This is pretty straightforward, and I’m sure all of us have installed some kind of software in the past.
2. Next, open the application, and insert the Xbox 360 game you wish to copy into your computers DVD/CD drive.
3. Using the software, burn a virtual image of the game, onto your computer. You can save this wherever but I usually save it to my desktop for quick, easy access.
4. Then you must eject the Xbox game, and insert a blank DVD into your computers DVD/CD drive.
5. Finally, use the software to copy the virtual image onto this blank DVD. Then your finished!

The wizard that guided you through the whole process was great. Really made it much simpler for me. I did try a few other pieces of software first. But they didn’t perform as well.

When looking at software to use. Remember that it must: Be able to get past the built in copyright protection on Xbox games; have a wizard that will guide you through the simple steps; make good quality copies, with no loss of video or audio; have support available if you need it; perform the whole process in as little time as possible.
