yeah...i dont know any other way. Just google them, you'll find it. However, Alcohol costs a few bucks (somewhere around 60?) but daemon tools is free. Good Luck.
Alcohol will create an image of the CD and act as a drive emulator (making the computer think a file is a CD drive) while Daemon tools is just an emulator. It does have to bypass the copy protection for most new games... so technically it is in violation of the DMCA.
