If going for games, I'd get a better phone like the 525 rather than sidegrade to the 520.
Don't swap for the 520, get something better like a 820, 730, etc.

Depends on the price. In the U.S., the 635 is going for $80 on Amazon (from AT&T) even before the holiday shopping season deals that usually begin in November. The 630/635 has a 1.2 GHz quad core cpu versus the 1 GHz dual core in the 520. WPCentral tested the 635 a few weeks ago and they found that it was noticeably faster. The 630/635 still only has 512k ram though.

I wouldn't get the 525 as an upgrade to the 520. While the 525 has more ram (1GB compared to 512 MEG in the 520) it runs on the dual core cpu at the same 1Ghz speed.

If you want both increased ram and better cpu performance, you'll have to pay more than $100.

In India Lumia 525 cost ₹8,000 , 630 ₹9700 & 730 ₹15,000 , Lumia 525 cn play games cz of ram but it's same as 520 , 630 is all good except ram, so performance is low, no budget to go for 730 confused. Than. There are devices of companies like micromax & xolo but I doubt thesse companies cz of after sales service & future upgrades
