Alcohol 120% and/or Clone CD/DVD. There's also an app called Clony XXL that is pretty good at identifying the protection used on discs. Also, Google yourself up some forums that deal with this kind of thing more exclusively, as methods can vary from game to game.

Also, drink your orange juice and stay in school.

Remember, fully check the disc after copying to make sure they play!!

There are a number of different protection methods the gaming companies can use to protect their game disks. First you need to determine what is used on the disk you want to copy, then you need the tools.

I found a site that will help you determine the protection method of any given game and they link you to the tools to do it... most seem to be free. They also have a support forum just for game burners.
