Well I guess it's downloading a game... but when that is finished is that just like the installation disk and i need to burn it or is that the actual set up?

Depends on how the download is packaged. If its a compressed series of file (rar files) you will need to extract the contents. Normally it will form a single ISO file, or a similar image file. After that you can burn those to CD/DVD, or you can get a drive emulating program like Alocohol 120%, Fantom CD, or one of the many other programs.

With the drive emulation software you then mount the disc image onto the fake drive, and your computer thinks its a normal CD/DVD drive that just had a disc inserted. Then you can install as normal.

With most of these downloaded games you will need to read the .nfo file that accompanies the download. It can be opened with notepad etc. It will contain instructions for any cracks that need to be applied, or special install instructions.

Good luck!
