LikMeBalleFM 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2005 Okay here`s what this whole topic is about Just an hour ago me and a friend had a convo bout piracy noadays and how it`s effecting (in this case) the game industry.Somehow Gran Turismo 4 came up and me being an absolute GT series fan just put up a bright smile and reashured him that Gran Turismo could NOT be copied due to the fact that it`s burned as DVD-R format and there are no DVD-R burners for consumers to buy, am I wrong?Can it be copied and burned anyway ? Or am I right when I say that it`s UNCOPYABLE ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vizskywalker 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2005 There are DVD-R burners, acutually. So they are fully copyable. However, one of the things sony did is modify the DVD-R. If you read the disc carefully, it says DVD-ROM, which is slightly different from a regular DVD-R so that many DVD burners can copy it, but it still isn't necessarily playable. (I think, if I got it wrong I am sure someone will correct me, but I am 95% sure.)~Viz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DVD-R is a format that can be created in the home with a burner and can be played in most DVD players.PS2 uses DVD-based storage and can be copied, but unless you have a special chip in your PS2, it won't play games on burned discs. If you get it modded, you shouldn't have any problems, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
