Maybe the OP should update the post listing the Steam games that can be activated on Origin. I know Shank activates on the client, and Crysis can be added if you contact support and give them your serial code.
Turn on the controller after you start the game, trust me.

Medal of Honor is going to put me to sleep. Good thing it's as long as a large nap.
Gatling Gears is where it's at.
Anyone know if any of these register on Origin?

It is a brave new world.

Options.
If you mean the class action lawsuit debacle, Origin has the same thing in its TOS.

I just uninstalled steam.
Steam? You mean that copycat DD service? Yeah, it can't hold a candle to Origin, it even makes you pay for the games you buy.

Yeah, I figured it will die soon anyway. It doesn't even have Mass effect 3 or Battlefield 3 on it. What a failure.

If the game doesn't require Origin (like BF3 or Fifa) then you have to go look for patches the old fashion way. Yeah. It won't even download the latest version of a game.

The worst part of these free games is that I need to play single player games for a week or more. And I also bought that Amazon bundle. I need another HDD but not enough SATA port to put it

Is there any way to redownload an installer without uninstalling the game itself? I forgot to turn on the save installer option when I downloaded a few games last night. I woke up to them installed and would like to start playing them, but I want to keep the installers just in case.
I'd like to know if you can redownload installers as well.
What the hell. I bet it has to have sales to even keep people interested, thus devaluing all pc games.

That's just Battlelog, nothing to do with Origin.

But this is way more widespread.
They'll just ban everyone who used the code, it takes too much time to remove specific games.

IGN asked them to revoke the keys. The glitch there was that people were getting content that was supposed to be an incentive to pay for premium IGN content, so they were understandably peeved. Keys for other services were revoked too.
EA didn't care. Plus there were reports of people calling EA and getting the game back onto their account anyway. Not saying they won't revoke some stuff but they're not to blame in your example.

Oh, well I like that then. Origin still sucks I guess.
And then no one will ever use Origin again. It's their loss if they ban people.

Just wondering, besides the typical EA hate, what are the actual reasons so many people are so negative on Origin? Anything I should be concerned about?
Stockholm syndrome is spreading fast.
If most people that installed Origin yesterday stick to the service as an alternative to buy digital games now, the damage caused is actually good.
I mean, a good marketing and publishing action that would've atracted this much attention to Origin would certainly cost A LOT of money.

Seems to be mostly Steam Zealots. I have been using Origin for a while now, and it's like any other game service to me. Even customer service has been good, so I have no complaints. This is coming from a guy who prefers steam to Origin, but the hate is really unfounded, plus Origin is always giving away free games. <3

I missed this. Battlefield 3 and Mass Effect 3 demo will continue to remain being lonely dorks in my Origin launcher.

I was just adding anything 19.99 and under when I heard about it. I missed a lot since they started fixing it soon after. I managed to get a Spore expansion, but not the base game.

lol, ah well still check out Origin, it does have some games I've missed out on and playing them at some high specs will be a visual treat.
