What program do you need to view "PGN" games?

any chess playing program should do this - I use 'fritz' - just open a new
game and paste the PGN in, or if you have a whole tournament downloaded open
a new database and import.
Fritz converts the games into chessbase format for storage in a larger
collection.
Hope useful

Any chess program will do this. Winboard is a quick, easy download.
(Assuming you're using Windows; Xboard for Unix; no idea about Macs but
Xboard presumably does the trick for OSX.)

One free option is to download Bookup 2000 Express. Add the PGN file to its
Game menu and you can then search the list.

Bookup will also import the PGN games into an ebook so you can contrast the
openings.

Go to www.bookup.com, click on Videos, and then watch the very last video on
finding and using PGN files.

Notepad is enough but I recommend e.g. chessbase light ;-)
