Yeah, like that. Download the game, burn the image to a CD-R (CD-RW doesn't work) using either discjuggler v4.60 or alcohol 120% and play. Some games that aren't selfbootable needs the utopia boot disc, but these are rare nowadays, and are easily spottable (non selfboot games comes in ISO and BIN/CUE formats, but some of them come in CDI format which are even rare).

If you'd read well instead of just asking...

burn the image files (CDI, MDF/MDS, CCD/IMG/SUB, BIN/CUE, ISO, NRG) with either discjuggler or alcohol 120%

This is what I follow to burn Dreamcast games. Just replace Codebreaker with what ever game you're burning.

codebreaker is a cheat disc. like gameshark and game genie or action replay. you need codebreaker to connect to PSO with the official GD-rom. if you use the auto boot disc you wont need coedbreaker. codebreaker also serves as a boot disc for non VGA games and imports. so its a handy tool to have. you should know it doesn't work with back ups. it only works with the official GD-roms.
