BillyMaysFan59: I don't even have an Origin account, not getting one either. I already use GOG, Steam, Humble, Desura....don't know how many more. (Luckily I don't use GamersGate either.)
GOG, Humble and Steam here. Not in the market for another account, especially one with more DRM to it.

CarrionCrow: I had a few games wishlisted there, but took them all off. Now it's focusing on GOG. I'll wipe out my list, take a long hard look at whatever's left, put together one more list, wipe those out, then I'll be up to date and pick off new releases if they're of interest. Sales won't be of interest after that since I'll have everything I want.

But who knows...maybe I'm being too hard on them. It's not like EA gives zero shits about its audience, instead going down the path of nickel and diming their customer base to death...right?

l0rdtr3k: Hahaha

CarrionCrow: I've run the numbers. After cutting my list in half, the projection is three months paying retail to clear it all.
Hoping that Summer cuts the cost down substantially.

Just looked at the first Origin bundle, and nothing stood out as anything of interest aside from Mirror's Edge.
Still wouldn't sign up to Origin for it, though.
avatar
l0rdtr3k: At least Mirror's Edge is pretty awesome if short,only got the first one for BF3(which is pretty shitty) and Sims 3(which doesn't hold a candle to the second one)
I like Dead Space, Command & Conquer and Dragon Age, but they're not worth it.
If I start backing current EA, I might as well start backing companies like Bethesda again. Not going to give my money to companies I wish would shut down. Seems a bit counterproductive.

I already had an origin account via that damned EA download manager when i boght Red Alert 3 years ago....
I had some expectations on BF3 from the first bundle but it wasn't really good....

I'm hoping for a/the summer sale as well to reduced my wishlist :).

At least Obsidian I can trust and I rather burn money than to give it to EA or Activision.
I hate buying EA games here knowing that it'll go to EA but at least part of my money goes to CDPR.

For me it's minus Desura and plus GamersGate and Uplay (but only for playing...)

You have Uplay? Poor you,that's the worst of the bunch.

Yup. Story was really annoyingly bad...and MP.....

Yeah. But i didn't have many problems with it until i started playing the Co-op missions from Splinter Cell: Blacklist with a friend of mine. Apparently their server hate us....*sigh*

Same here, that's why I didn't have a problem with buying Pillars at retail price.

I have GOG's EA games, they're sitting on a chunk of history so it was worth it to me to get them.
Dead issue now since it looks like they're not going to put out any more old items here.
Got things like Dragon Age, Dead Space and Mass Effect through the local pawn shop on the 360.

All the plot could've been resolved so easily and don't get me started on the plot holes. SuperBunnyHop made a video about it.

They're idiots if they think they're going to get people who want DRM-free to go to their extra bullshit when they could release everything here, including the garbage that is Command and Conquer 4, and make good money off every single entry.

Is not like people are always asking if C&C will appear here,right?

At least C&C (Tiberian Dawn), Red Alert and Tiberian Sun are free...
