How do I rextract cinematics from games?

[The Mighty Wolf]

If there some kind of software that allows me extract the cinematics and intros from PC games and PS2?

I have numerous games that I would to just watch the movie parts, instead of loading up the game every time?

BTW, my games are all legit, so would it also have a copyprotection thingy on the cinematics?

Depends on the game.

Many of the EA sports games just use standard movie files.... you browse the CD and you can find the movies and sounds.

Some you have to copy and change the extension... they'll use ".mo_" and you change it to ".mov" and it plays.

Others use some kind of propretary movie format so it only plays on the in-game player.

Try a program called fraps, it takes pictures and can record videos, we use it im my online hockey league to record our games sometimes. but if you use it, you better have a big harddrive.
