Hello Mr. Van Heusden: I don't know the particular requirements of your project, but Chessgames.com is an amazingly useful site. It has a database of over 300,000 games, including the best-known games of the strongest players. The games can be "clicked through" online or downloaded in PGN format (some with commentary, some without). Access to the games is free. There are some features (such as the "Openings Explorer" that are only available for paying members, but the most important features are free): http://www.chessgames.com/ For example, here is a recent game between Garry Kasparov and Veselin Topalov: http://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1333504 Hope this is helpful! == Brett "Bishop Berkeley's Phantasmagorical Chess Site" http://www.bbbbbb.org/ folkert van heusden wrote: > Hi, > > I'm lookin for large amounts of games played by humans. > To be usefull for me they should be in full notation (e.g.: e2-e4). > Could someone help with this please? > > > Folkert. > > p.s.
