Unknown SEGA Dreamcast *.gi images??!!

Hello,

I got a few SEGA Dreamcast CD-images with this extension: *.gi

Bust A Move.gi

sega pack.gi

Last Blade 2.gi

The King Of Fighters 1999 Dream Match.gi

The King Of Fighters 2000.gi

What CD burning program/tool supports this unknown "*.gi" extension?

Nero, CloneCD & Alcohol don't and they're not Disc-Juggler CD-images for sure.

So what are they?

Please any help will be appreciated as I really want to try these games.

Thanks.

Looks like it's a 'Sony CD Extreme' file. Yeah, I know, I've never heard of it either.

yeah... its a "global image" file used by sony's software like it290 said.

I found some software called UltraISO that can deal with .gi images and burn them and also convert them to regular .iso

Here is a link to a place to DL it... but I don't ...

There are other tools out there for converting them... but review I've read talk of some problems with them... like people talking about converting .gi DVD images and it would turn them into images only usable on CDs and well... hard to burn 4 gigs to a CD. But those images aren't gonna be DVD size

In fact it's RecordNow Max format. You can use it to burn them.
