Because I've not tried to play games from a disc using this drive, I don't know for sure. Maybe you can. If you can copy the game from the disc (in the drive) to your computer, I suppose it is possible. However, copy protection might be an obstacle.

I just installed a program that I had downloaded from the internet on to my computer, and it installed properly. This was a (an) CD-R disk. So I would say that one can play CDs with this drive. By the way this program was burned from another CD drive.

Sorry, but I bought this item for a gift, and I have no information of what it will or won't do at this time.

No. You can play cassettes or you can play CD's or you can play the radio. There is equipment that can copy cassettes onto a CD but it is generally in the form of a turntable for the old records or it will clearly state that there is that capability with any advertised eqipment.

It sound a like your computer does not read the disk or something like that. You must have the CD Rom in the computer to play it!

yes I can play back discs that I have burned... I can play playaway audiobooks( preloaded digital players) and of course other CDs that are manufactured by a publisher. The sound is great. Jean

Yes, this system does play cd/DVDs... However I have not gotten a chance to use it.

I don't know. I never tried this. You can probably play the disk in a laptop player. gm

Yes, but it only comes with one program to play them. So, if it is not in the right format, you are out of luck. This is a horrible computer! It has a lot of problems!

I have mine loaded on my computer and play it that way. I do not know whether you can play it any other way.

You can play CDs and tapes through attached devices; e.g., I use my DVD player to play CDs.

I would say Yes, if the game has those connections. The Red, Yellow, White video/audio connections. I can connect my Wii that way, but you have to play it on computer screen.

No, you could use an external HD. Yes, you can play audio CD's the are jacks in the back. The tutorial's on Youtube are very helpful also.

okay, from my experience, you can play DVDs, CDs and burn CDs - I have not yet tried to burn a DVD. It has worked very well for me so far!

No....Once the game is installed on you're computer you can remove the disc and the game will still play.

I have been able to play my cds and install my software from cds and dvds, so you can play them. Remember that you will need a usb port. I am very pleased with this dvd recorder.

It's not a CD player, so no. The CDs you can play will depend on the CD player you use.
