Nope, those are called RAR files.  You need to download WinRAR 3.0 (I believe you can get it at winrar.com) and unrar them first.  It is like a volume of books that makes one full story.  You need to 'unrar' the volume back into one iso.  Then in Nero click file>Burn Image>select the iso> then under the burn tab in Nero check the 'Disc  at Once' mode box and burn away!

Yeah, I got that same problem with THPS3!  I unrared it to reveal 26 new files, that is all they consist of, but they all appear to be iso's.  How do I combine them to make one iso?!  I am unable to even get primo dvd to recognize them on any media, let alone, boot?! :angry:

                   You may not be unraring correctly.  WHat you have to do is find the one file out of the bunch that has either .RAR or .001 as it's extension, open it up using WinRAR and extract it to a folder.  It will automatically process all files needed to extract the ISO fully.   unsure.gif

I have downloaded about 30 cd versions of games and i find that i need 80 minute blanks to burn them onto.

Note 2. If you unrar your downloaded games and you do NOT end up with an iso them you can not burn that game.

Also if you try to unrar your files and you get a crc error on all files them you are using the wrong version of winrar and you need winrar version 3

Good luck guys
