Whether your a high end user to a simple mobile user, Nvidia will have you covered with bundles including either; Daylight, the world's first Unreal Engine 4 game, or a £90 cash injection for the free to play titles Heroes of Newerth, Path of Exile, and Warface.

I'll start first with the high end bundle, if you purchase a GTX 660, 760 or higher graphics card you will be among the first to play the upcoming horror game, Daylight form developer Zombie Studios.

Releasing this April, Daylight will be the first title released using Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4. It promises to be a procedurally generated, twisted piece of psychological terror designed to give even the most hardened of horror fans a fright.

On the PC Daylight will also feature many visual enhancements, courtesy of some of Nvidia's GPU accelerated affects like, Physx, HBAO+ and DirectX 11 Bokeh Depth of Field, giving what Nvidia call the "definative experience".

Here is a trailer for Daylight Below;

Alternatively whoever purchases a GTX 650, 650 Ti, 750, 750 Ti desktop graphics cards or other qualifying GTX notebook GPUs will receive £90 worth of in-game credit for the popular free to play titles Heroes of Newerth, Path of Exile and Warface (£30 of credit per game).

These funds will help purchasers progress through the ranks of the army of gamers already playing these titles by offering them a head start when it comes to character customization and loadout options.

As usual there not game bundles just money off stuff for free to play games that i never play.
However a game bundle as never sold a gpu to me before just its price to performance ive been eyeing up a MSI gameing GTX750TI to bilud my steam/streaming box i dont realy care about haveing free stuff for free games.
 
ah god, the whole gamebundle thing disgusts me. why can't AMD and nvidia just compete based on their products instead of freebies.
maybe drop the prices a little instead.
 
I've rarely got use out of a game that's been bundled with some hardware I've bought. Battlefield 4 for instance that I got with the R9 290 which I later sold, I stopped playing since it seemed to ask me to buy DLC every time I played it.

The only exception to that was when I got Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl bundled with a motherboard I got back in 2008 (the original Rampage Formula). That game I quite enjoyed.
 
The in game money for F2P games isn't really much of an incentive.

I like game bundles though, I sold the 5 games I got with my 7950 for £45 and I sold the BF4 code I got with my 290 for £15 :)

Free stuff is free stuff, it doesn't sway the decision of which card to buy for me but i'm not going to turn down free games. Whether you use them or not they are free, worst case is scenario with free games is, well there is no worst case scenario because they were free. :D
Daylight looks like a good game though.

This is one thing where Nvidia just do not compete with AMD on, because atleast AMD give something usefull with there cards, although most of the times I don't actually play the games they give away with them.
