Your recipe seems like not working. I have given the command:-

mount -o loop -t iso9660 rld-dmc4.iso /media/Entertainment/Game/Devil\ May\ Cry\ 4\ Image/

And I got the o/p:-

rld-dmc4.iso: No such file or directory

lawrence - you arent specifying a path for your BF1942_1.iso file.
try
mkdir /mnt/foo
mount -o loop /dir/path/filename.iso /mnt/foo
that should do the trick

what is the path to BF1942_1.iso relative to your current directory?

Should something like

mkdir -p /mnt/disk
mount -o loop /dev/USB/BF1942_1.iso /mnt/disk
... Make any sense?

lawrence@Inf1n1ty:~$ su
Password:
su: Authentication failure
lawrence@Inf1n1ty:~$ sudo -i
root@Inf1n1ty:~# mkdir -p /mnt/disk
root@Inf1n1ty:~# mount -o loop BF1942_1.iso /mnt/disk
BF1942_1.iso: No such file or directory
root@Inf1n1ty:~#

so when i log into root, cannot as it is locked, so use sudo to gain root privileges, Then when I go to mount the image it doesn't find it.
Is there a certain location that I need to place the iso in question?

you need to create the mount point first, i.e. "mkdir /mnt/test"

it also works without "-t iso9660" (mount -o loop file.iso /mnt/test)... When I tried, your command doesn't work at all...

You fail to explain that this command only works for root.
