Any free chess databases to download?

I have installed SCID vs. PC and would now like to populate it with a big database of games. Are there any free ones out there with several million games in them?

Thanks,

Jon

There is a free database of 2.2 million games available here:
http://www.top-5000.nl/pgn.htm

It contains games through 2013.

@thibault just the 2000+ classical games from that collection, that would be a nice thing to have, because i just have 5 GBs volumina per 15 euro :-(

You can try my collection if you like. Consists of 3,5 million games. I update it roughly once a month using the latest TWIC files.
