subject: How To Copy, Backup or Burn xBox 360 Games – The Complete Guide to Making Perfect 1:1 Copies of Your Games [print this page] How much has your gaming equipment and xBox games cost you to date? I bet in the 000's if not even in the 0000's if you've had to replace lost or damaged games! To help save you money in the long run and cut down on your expenses it is important that you learn how to preserve your gaming investment. For a novice gamer learning how to copy, backup or burn xBox 360 games might seem like a daunting task but it can be as easy as burning a file onto a disk.
Initially people used to customize their consoles to get their games backed up. This was done by installing a MODCHIP' in the Xbox 360 console. Installing this mod is very costly and not something that everyone can do nor is it done at Microsoft. So either you do it yourself or you rely on someone else to do it for you. So the demand to copy xBox 360 games without mod has therefore increased.
To overcome this compatible game copy software is therefore required to easily backup xBox 360 games with no mod chip needed. Standard dvd/cd burner software like Nero will not be able to copy xBox 360 games because all Xbox and Xbox 360 games are copy protected.

Very little computer knowledge is needed to use this software and you'll be able to burn all your Xbox 360 games onto DVDs. Without it, your computer will not even recognize Xbox games placed in your optical drive (DVD burner).
The tools you will require to burn your xBox 360 games are as follows:
1. As already mentioned compatible xBox 360 game copy software installed on your PC.
2. Blank DVD's. I would recommend purchasing good quality discs such as Sony rewritable DVDs.
3. A DVD Drive already comes on most PC's and laptops.
You use the software to copy your xBox game and then burn it to a DVD with the use of your DVD writer. Don't worry this software provides step by step instructions for creating copies of favourite games but it literally only takes 4 mouse clicks and your game is copied.
It is essential to realize that you should only use the copies for your own use - you should not under any circumstances consider redistributing the backups you have made for commercial purposes.
