How to Record PS3 Games
The PlayStation 3 has many new features that make it one of the most advanced consoles in the world. And it just so happens that one of these features makes copying PS3 games quite difficult. You see, the PS3 uses Blu-Ray, which is a new type of disc that uses a blue laser to burn content. These discs are more powerful than standard DVDs, and the bad news is that if you want to burn them, you need a Blu-ray burner. These aren’t cheap, but they are essential for this tutorial to work.
If you have a Blu-ray burner, congratulations, you can burn PS3 discs. To do this, you just need to download a program called Nero. It is available on the Internet and you can download it by searching Google for “Nero Burning Rom”. This software allows you to burn blu-ray discs, which is what PS3 games are.
Once you have downloaded Nero, you should have the game ISO on your PC. An ISO file can be downloaded from the Internet (which is illegal) or “ripped” from the original game disc. To rip a PS3 game, simply put the original game on your Blu-ray burner, open Nero and select “create image file from disc”.
When you have an ISO of the game you want to burn, you need to open Nero and then select “Burn from Image”. A screen will appear where you can select the file to burn to disc, which means you just need to be able to select the ISO of your game and then let Nero burn it to your disc. One piece of advice here is that you should make sure that the write speed of the program is set to around 4X, which is the speed that has the highest success rate from our experience. BR records aren’t cheap and the last thing you want to do is create a coaster.
The trick to this tutorial is to be able to get a working ISO of your game. ISOs for PS3 games can be anywhere from 10 GB to 50 GB in size, which means if you try to copy the game and it’s not that big, you’ve got a problem. While this is the basic way to record PS3 gameplay, there are some other more complex details that also need to be done to ensure that you can play your newly recorded game on your console.
