I love playing my PS3 and I consider my games as treasure. That is why I had been keeping them in a "treasure box". The probem was that I had a huge bundle of games and it was very difficult keeping them all organized. Whenever I would decide to play a game I would clutter up my entire room taking all my games out of the box.
I am somehow afraid to lose all these games because I bought them with the money that I saved from my allowance. I would feel disheartened whenever I see the scratches and I can't just let them be damaged after some time. Imagine how expensive the latest and popular games can be. That is why I thought of copying them so I can have backup files. That way, I would feel secured because even if the original copies were damaged, I would still have duplicates.
I made a research on how I can play backup games on PS3. I found out that copying games is not at all difficult. I only need the help of a PS3 copying software. I found a lot of software on the net which I can download for free. On the other hand, I do not want to fall a victim to viruses, spyware and malware; that's why I chose to go for a paid one.
Truly, I spent money on the software but I believe it's not a loss on my part. Besides, I can use it for a long time and I could burn lots of games through it. Instead of buying, I can borrow my cousin's PS3 CDs and burn them.
When I learned how to play backup games on PS3, I started having second thoughts on buying original copies. The price I spent on burning my own game CDs is at least 10 times cheaper compared to buying the original versions from the store.
I used to wonder if what I am doing is legal. I am glad to know that it is as long as the copies I make are intended for personal use. What's illegal is selling these copies.
