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?

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.
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) Hoping that Summer cuts the cost down substantially.

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.
