So the new Backup Loader 0.3 came out, and games load a lot better and the compatibility for burnt games is better. I went on a huge downloading spree this past week and here is what I've gotten so far:

WWE Smackdown vs. RAW 2008
- The game works fine until you start a match. I haven't tried other features, but if you can't do a match what's the point?

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
- The game doesn't read at all. I beat this already though on the PS3, just wanted to try out the motion controls. Great game!

Wii Music
- It loaded all the way, and it is fun so far. I like these types of mini games. Nothing to spend over $20 on, but hey, it's a nice time killer.

Guitar Hero: World Tour
- Loaded up good, but I don't have drums or a guitar for the Wii. My Rock Band USB mic from the XBox worked for this though. Good song choices, but I just don't like how they structured the game, and the singing is so weak compared to Rock Band.

Mario Super Sluggers
- Game works flawlessly if you patch it. Great game, I loved it in August when I first played it, now I can enjoy that bad boy for free! HUZZAH!

Madden 09
- Game loaded fast, everything so far has worked, so I'm happy. 07 on Wii was great, 08 was weird but 09 seems to be pretty fun. Can't wait to experiment more on it.

LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga
- Game loads good, everything works, now I can finish where I left off from this past April for free!

LEGO Indiana Jones
- Another game I need to finish, and can finally do it. The game loads quick, and everything seems to work as well, so that's good.

Harry Potter: Order of the Phoenix
- Game loaded up nice and quick, and runs very smooth. I can't wait to play this game, it has been one I've wanted to play for over a year now.


I'm going to try to grab some more games this weekend, and if I do I'll have a blog update telling how the games work and such. Thanks for reading.
