Ratchet & Clank and Jak and Daxter are surprisingly compressible once the padding is removed.

Don't chase the smallest file size; chase the most stable format. Use CSO or CHD formats. You’ll save 30% to 60% of your hard drive space, your games will run at full speed, and you won't lose the cinematic experience that made the PS2 legendary.

Games compressed using tools like WinRAR or 7-Zip. These must be extracted back to their full size before playing.
