Save big on three popular PC games

Good news, PC gamers: today's the day to score some solid deals on three popular titles, all of them available via download for (near) instant delivery. Here's the rundown:

• Direct2Drive has Ghostbusters: The Video Game for $9.95. It lacks the multiplayer modes of its console counterparts, but the single-player stuff is a blast. It's a must-have for any fans of the franchise.
• Today only, EA is offering The Sims 3 for $29.95--a savings of $20 off the list price. If you don't mind taking a drive or waiting on delivery, Best Buy has it for $19.99--with an exclusive game guide.
• This weekend only, Steam is offering Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - Game of the Year Edition for $23.99. It's one of the top-rated first-person shooters of all time, and it normally sells for $40.

That's it, game fans! Have a happy and safe Halloween, and I'll see you back here on Monday. (But do check tomorrow for a special Sunday deal from your friendly neighborhood CNET staffers!)

damn it man! right when i don't have money, the deal that ive been waiting for on my favorite game COD4 comes out. I don't feel that bad though cuz it doesn't look like it would work on Windows 7. Would it? IDK anyway thanks.

i played it fine on vista, dont see why it wouldnt work for windows 7 as they are supposed to be compatible. In fact, im willing to guess you'll get better frame rates on 7 than vista.

i bought ghost busters a few days ago, took me until yesterday to actually download it. pretty fun game overall. really glad they brought in the original cast as voice actors, as im a huge bill murray fan.

Rick! Right now Team Fortress 2 is only TWO DOLLARS and fifty cents on Steam! This should really be added to this list!! But hurry, they did this a couple days ago and it only lasted a few hours.

Please be aware, I believe the Best Buy deal for The Sims 3 is ONLY for the game guide.

I got the sims 3 for my daughter on November 1st, the deal is still good and free shipping of physical disk! Saved me 36 bucks if you include shipping.
