 Yes there is SCID I have it, but that's a database for your games, where can I get the PGN's of the master games like you can have with the game explorer here ?

Thanks anyway

Thanks all ... It would be interesting to know what is the source of games for chess.com game explorer.  Chesstempo has the same feature.   I wonder if the selection of games is something official or arbitrarily chosen by the chess.com admins ... Is there a standard?
