Very good deals there.
I remember when I got my GTX-570, 2 games came with it.
Just Cause 2, and Mafia 2. (or L.A. Noir, don't remember which, I gave it to my gf though)

7970 CF is serious overkill. But yeah, this is an awesome deal, I got the never settle promo with 3 games and sleeping dogs ended up being one of the very few games I actually ended up completing (havent played many games to completion in the past few years) so it actually says alot about the quality of the game itself.

DEFINITELY. If they say no, then return the card, get refund and get a 7950 with the 2 games. They won't do that though so you'll be alright. Just do it asap.
