Dixons selling downloadable PC games

You can choose either Sega Pack 1 (Medieval II: Total War Gold Edition, Condemned: Criminal Origins, Alpha Protocol and The Club) or Sega Pack 2 (Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Sega Mega Drive Collection 1 UK).

The download service launches with a special price promotion for Witcher 2: £25.
