My son has a few games on the Playstation2 that won't play anymore(scratched) so he asked me this and I have no idea.

Can you rip and burn video games?

Not without modifying your console. Take them to a movie rental place and they can fix them, usually for like 5 bucks or less. you could also buy a "scratch doctor" i think they are called, i have had one for ten years. works like a charm

this is the SkipDR same basic design as the one i have

Hold the dvd up to a 60-100watt bulb.

If you see light coming through the Dvd,

junk it. It's not repairable.Once you break the

foil the laser reflects off of, It's not good anymore.

You can do this to Cd's also.You can repair scratches.

But not the foil layer..

forgot to mention, that especially with the old, big body ps2, the lenses get dirty very easily. sometimes they will only play pristine games because of all the junk. clean the lens and sometimes they will play games that they did not before.

thanks fourbizz on the skipDR, not heard of that.

I did clean the lenz day before yesterday and it helped out alot, I held up the disc to a light Jaheff and looks fine, I'll check out the skipDR again thanks fellas
