So...you are allowed to play those games beyond that Dec 18-23 timeframe, or is that just the time during which you can download the games for free? With my connection speed, I probably won't even be done downloading the games...

The time frame is for getting them via the provided link. They are added to your games and can be played forever. I would also expect that you just have to add them to your account and can download them even after the time frame like which any game from an account (can be removed to free disk space and downloaded again later to be played once more).

Yikes.
Watchdogs is 14GB - I let it download in the background all day - I have no idea how long it actually took.
Assassin's Creed is 25GB. I'm letting it download overnight, and it's currently saying it'll take 12 hours. I have no idea how big World in Conflict is.
I wish (there might be a way, I haven't looked) the installers could be moved elsewhere so they could be re-launched at any point without having to re-download these beasts...
Still, I'm not going to complain about free games - thanks again for the heads-up.

I'd suggest you post this on the Design and Architecture forum: [^], and include content about your design concerns, the type of clients you wish to work for/advertise to. What type of feedback are you looking for ?
If you post on that forum, and add detail, I will respond, there.

Benevolent humanity, recognizing your abuse and dis-enfranchisement at the hands of homosapist oppressors, now will seek to atone for its viricidal history by making you even more deadly [^].Quote: Federal officials on Tuesday ended a moratorium imposed three years ago on funding research that alters germs to make them more lethal.
Such work can now proceed, said Dr. Francis S. Collins, the head of the National Institutes of Health, but only if a scientific panel decides that the benefits justify the risks.
Some scientists are eager to pursue these studies because they may show, for example, how a bird flu could mutate to more easily infect humans, or could yield clues to making a better vaccine.
Gosh, what could possibly go wrong ?

Who was it that was signing up for Flu Camp? No wonder they are offering so much.

Some genetics research companies sell gene editing kits.
The dirty open secret, which everyone knows, is that anyone could get hold of one of these kits and with enough patience and expertise create their own nasty virus, as the mechanism which inserts new genetic material is itself a virus.
As far as I know there is little regulation other than not being allowed to sell these kits to Iran.
So in some ways this is just the government owning up to this already going on...
