You can copy xbox games if you have the right program installed

Copying XBOX games must be on the minds of a lot of gamers, because we have been getting a lot of questions about this topic recently!  Lots of people are used to making copies of their music CDs, but aren't sure how they can do the same with their games.

Today, we're going to explain exactly how copying XBOX games is possible.  Before we do this, we should make one thing clear.

We aren't writing this article with the intention of having people make illegal copies of XBOX games.Making backup copies of games you own is completely legal - this is what we're explaining today.

Allright - let's dive right in.  And don't worry - we're not going to throw a lot of technical or complicated instructions at you.Don't worry - this is really easy to do.

You might be asking yourself - Why can't I just use the same software that I use to burn music CDs to make copies of my XBOX games?

Well, because if you want to copy xbox games you need a more technologically advanced program.

Every video game has some form of copyright guard on it.  This protection makes it impossible for your computer to "read" the disc unless you have a certain program installed.  When your computer isn't able to read the disc, it's impossible for it to produce a copy.

There are a few copmanies that have produced software programs specifically for making backups of video games.  Once you install the program, your computer is able to get past the protections on the disc and copying xbox games is made possible.

It just takes a simple installation of a specialized program and then it's smooth sailing.  The program makes it easy - you put in the game, let your computer make a copy on your hard drive, then insert a blank disc (DVD-R) and wait for your computer to transfer the data onto the disc.

I know it might sound overly simple, but that's really all there is to it!  It's so easy a monkey could do it...

One piece of advice - don't overpay for this type of program.  I have seen programs that are over $100 - there's absolutely no need to pay this much.One of the most popular programs is less than $40.  Although some companies charge more and use all sorts of fancy marketing, you won't get anything more for your money.

By far, this method is the simplest way to copy xbox games.This makes making backup copies of your xbox games possible whenever you want.  Enjoy!
