Whilst i understand that people will hate this. I am on the completely opposite fence. I love Steam and i like the fact that it's finally getting some competition. It takes quite a lot to pull me away from Steam and Origin has done just that (having BF3 and SW:TOR really helped them) to the point where i don't mind look there for games. In contrast, other Digital Services like Direct2Drive, Greenman Gaming etc. haven't ever taken my money unless i can activate it on Steam or Origin. Now that ME3 is an "Originworks" (a la Steamworks) game, i'm happy knowing that i can buy the game from anywhere i want and be able to register it on Origin. |

Origin is evil. EA are evil. Requiring a Windows Live account to save games is evil. I will avoid any and all games that involve these things. PS. Valve FTW. |

What's the big deal with Origin? I have it for BF3, it's no different to Steam. In fact it's good for Steam to have competition. I have no problem with this. Well, the only problem is I have to fit in time to play ME2, that's currently sitting on my shelf, before ME3 comes out. |

Seriously? Is that even legal? Boy am I glad I stopped gaming a long time ago. |

Ah of course, I'd forgotten about that. Although I installed WL I think I played that offline though so I never saved it online. |

If they could possibly come close to being good enough to be considered as some sort of competition to Steam rather than a cynical low-grade copy, you might have a point. |

Very true, I must admit I made my comment more optimistically than realistically. It doesn't fill you with confidence that it's still 'Origin Beta'. ![]() |
