This is a clear response to AMD’s Never Settle program

Christmas is coming, so makers of gaming hardware are giving presents in whatever way they can. Right now, it is through free bundled games.

AMD caused this latest episode by releasing the Never Settle drivers and announcing free game bundles.

NVIDIA's OEMs are countering that move as we speak. Micro-Star International, for example, has decided to ship free download vouchers for Assassin's Creed III with every GeForce GTX 650 Ti adapter.

All customers around the world are eligible, except those from Japan and China.

We fully expect NVIDIA's other partners to start announcing similar promotions soon. Advantages like the one AMD currently holds never last for long on the IT market, much like NVIDIA released a special, game-optimizing driver a day after AMD did.
