its like a nero image which is created when u select the option COPY THE CD

it has got info about the boot settings, files and much more..... so that linux cd's are downloaded and can be burned easily......

also, iso image can be burned in a cd by using any cd burning software that u have(most of them support it)

If you got an iso image you can simply burn it in nero by selecting open image and selecting iso filetype in dropdown box of filetypes.
iso is an image of the CD.
ISO files can also be opened using isobuster and alcohol120 degree.
it isn't necessary to make an iso image for copying any type of cd but it usually helps because iso image preserves the orginal format on the CD. Of course ISO files can be easily modified.

I am assuming there was no piracy in here. And just burn the folder contents as it is on a CD. This isn't really related to iso.

no i think if it gives 2 files then most probably it is an iso file..... with a md5 hash check............

@bholu please check if it is a iso file (*.iso) then u will have to burn it on a cd... using nero's write a image option. the game wont work if u directly make a data cd.......

please tell me the extensions of the files that u get after u extract .rar...............

like .iso, .exe, .zip. doc. ,etc etc

champ_rock he's already said that on unarchiving the ra files, he gets two folders not files. Maybe he should give out more clearer description then doubts will go.

No complication. Just use Nero........burn image......select your ISO image.
You can use the cd now.
