PopCap Offers Games, Instead of Candy, For Halloween

Are you a parent looking for something better than candy to give out to those Halloween ghosts, gremlins, and ghouls this year? Seattle-based PopCap said today that it is working with the American Dental Association (ADA) to offer up millions of coupons for free copies of the PopCap game Plants vs. Zombies this Halloween. The two said that, through the "Stop Zombie Mouth" campaign, that parents and dentists will be able to give away trading cards and coupons redeemable for the video game. The game normally costs $19.99; the ADA has started distributing coupons to be printed by parents and dentists for the free game for the PC and the Mac.
