Every month Telkom Do Gaming publishes an article which highlights the best downloads for that month.

Telkom gives its customers 10 GB's free for every one GB of blended (international and local) bandwidth. This means, for example, that a Telkom customer with a three GB cap will get 30GB local bandwidth for free.

Using all the local bandwidth on gaming media is obviously the best way gamers would want to spend it, and since Do Gaming is hosted locally it's a great place to get some downloads done.

April saw a number of interesting demos emerge, such as the Mount & Blade Warband demo and a demo for the adventure game The Whispered World, plus a demo for Telltale's latest Sam & Max offering, The Devil's Playhouse.

Do Gaming also put the latest Heroes of Newerth clients on the site and the award winning World of Goo demo on the site.

There was more than just that, with even ringtones for Borderlands made available -- take a look.
