The Answer is Yes sometimes and No may times.
Whats the use of dumping installed games in DVD-ROMS? The answer is there are many advantages. Like the games can isolated from virus attacks. The installation process can be skipped when ever you want to play the game after a long time or a format. The hard disk space can be saved. The PC does not get slowed down for istallation.
But there is a problem. The Games generally not only use the files in the installation folder rather they use many files in the windows and other folders. These are generally the .dll files. For the same reason, a user can not run dumped games. It shows an error like "File not found d3dx9_34.dll/d3dx9_35.dll re-installation may fix the problem". These files may not be present in the windows installation and will be installed while installing the game. Also, the Games not only read the files in the installation folders, but also they write something in the files many times. Examples of these files which are written by the game are the profile save files. So this makes it not possible to dump the games into ROMs to access the games later.
But there are many games which does not pose any errors when there are being played. So, these games can always be dumped in to ROMs to play later. The Game when loading will get all the required files in to the RAM. You can play for as much time as you want and you can take the ROM out. The problem here is that, the games releasing in these days are of much bigger size that of normal DVD-ROM. You must have the Dual Layer DVD writable disks to fit these in.
But the games can be surely installed in the Flash Drives which are capable of both reading and writing the data into the files. But the problem with the Flash Drives is that you wont maintain a handful of Flash Drives daily, but you do play more number of games than that. Also, we never store the Flash Drives, they are in daily use.
