To my surprise, the drive worked and the disk was recognised by Windows, its name was really imaginative BCES0052 - the Sony code of the (European version of the) game. After installing the drive by forcing it inside the computer's case from the second CD drive spot (bet it wasn't how it was supposed to be done, but it couldn't fit the case when I tried to install it from the inside) and connecting the necessary cables I decided to pop in the RCF:ToD disk and see what happens. I wondered why he brought it because I had already got a fully functioning BD-writer, but then I realised it was one of the drives that could read PS3 disks because of some components that had accidentally been used for that drive as well as the PS3's BD drive. So, today my father brought home a used Lite-ON DH-401S BD drive which he got from his workplace since the drive was worn out so to say and sometimes malfunctioning. That's because PS3's game disks are in some way special which makes them invisible to most BD drives.

I guess those of you who have got a BD drive in their PCs have tried what happens when you set your PS3 disks in it? Nothing. If you want to skip to the more interesting part, you can go straight on to the third paragraph beginning with the word 'So'. Delete the thread if it does violate something or just remove the parts which do so.

*Disclaimer* I made this thread just to discuss the files inside the disk, which shouldn't be against any laws as shouldn't be checking content of a game disk you own.
