if its a dvd rip game then its gonna be on 80-min cdr and if its a dvd game then its on dvd and if its a cd game then its on cd...but for the most part when u d/l them if the filesizes of the rars are around 20 megs then its a cd game but if they are closer to 50 megs then its a dvd game

anything above that = DVD
