No, it copies a large portion of the game, yet the game still needs to be in the game from the start because it allows it to actually play. There are necessary files on the game that are needed to allow the game to play. You can hotswap but you still need the original game disc in the first place.

Necessary files like what? I've checked out several games and it seems to have all of the game's file on the HDD.

Then why won't it start without the disc? It needs to verify the game is in the drive, then it will play off the game file on the hdd and the disc itself will stop spinning.

well when the disk stops spinning it definitely is not reading it. it needs to read the security portion of the disk. wonder if theres a way to create your own copy of the files and then install them somewhere on the hdd so it could be possible to play without the disk
