u cannot burn these type of games in its entirety. u have to remove some languages, demos, or some movies to make them actually fit onto a standard dvd-r. there is probably other ways to make them fit but i cant think of any right now. or when u get ur xbox modded u can install the software into ur xbox hardrive that lest u dump the entire game onto the xbox with one simple click on ur controller sraight from the load try to the hardrive in about 10 mins. or so :D i do this to all of my xbox games. it saves me alot of trouble, time and dvd-r discs...hehe

standard dvd-r media is 4.7 gigs but you need a 300mb buffer making the discs usually about 4.4 worth of info.

Its usually pretty easy to remove stuff that will have absolutely no effect on the game.

For example, about 2GB of Max Payne is taken up with foreign languages. Their is usually guides for games that be reduced in size this easily, such as Enter the Matrix.
