It looks good, but If you don't want every game, I would suggest building on on your own, or ask him to drop the games, so you get all that for 800 bucks. If you want the games, well it looks good. If not, build one on you'r own, and choose an fx 8350 build. I for instance could forget about 50% of these games, and buy the ones I need on steam sales, or elsewere cheap from the internet. You have many choices, it's up to you if you don't want to build. You could bring him down at 900 for that whole package.

hm... I am thinking from € to $.... Yeah, it's right at 1000 $.

dude i saw that add just make sure that the spec he listed is the same as the pc he selling ok btw i dont think you will be able to play the that comme whit it cause if the games came from steam than you need his acount to play btw i recomend re installing window 7

Yeah, as pl9090 suggest.. these games are probably on his origin/steam account .. not all. But unless he gives you those accounts you wont be able to play them. And if you decide to buy this PC also make sure if the games are not pirated if he counted them into price.

Just winging it from memory (I browse Newegg alot), I'd say the hardware alone is worth close to $1000 new, as long as it hasn't been used much it shouldn't be too bad (with a 660ti and a 3570, how old could it be?). A pretty well rounded build. My guess is this guy packed it with pirated games (and probably OS too) as a selling point, to make it seem like a good deal (that's what I'd do at least, j/k). But unless that build is EXACTLY what you want and the price you want to pay, I'd suggest building your own rig. You could probably cut about 3-4 hundred bucks off that price and still get something that stomps most games (except The Witcher 2, freaking UberMode). Also, who's to say he didn't pack it with viruses or spyware, hoping to steal credit card info or passwords. I'm not saying he's a bad guy, but you gotta protect your interests, and installing your own OS and software is the safest way to go (I even reinstall the OS on store-bought PCs, when I'm not busy defenstrating them from 40 story buildings).
