How do I backup games that I purchased?

Hi all,
I would like to backup a game I bought. Whats the best way?

You need to use a program to dump the umd. I haven't done so in a while, but the last one I used was the Dax Dumper.

I believe you can use fastloader to do this as well.

I'd recommend asddasit's way. I knew you could do it that way I just couldn't remember it. Also, there is a way to do it wirelessly.

Thanks all. USBSSS Worked like a charm. The file is pretty big 1.29GB any way to compress?

asddasit hit it on the nose, but going a little further about google... if you are looking for a particular way to compress a particular game, you should look for the "rip kit" for the game. So in this case if you bought Lumines and wanted to find a way to compress it, you would google "lumines rip kit" or "lumines ripkit" (spaced or non-spaced)
