looking for a complex PGN file for testing PGN parser

Hello.
(I already posted the same question on talkchess.com, got one answer, but looking for more...)
I'm looking for a complex PGN file for testing a PGN parser. Something with complex variations and a variety of test cases.
Anyone with a link to such a test PGN file?
Thanks in advance.
PS: it's for testing the next version of the pgn4web games viewer also used on this site.

I use this game as a quick test for parsers: it has nested comments and variations, as well as NAG codes:
