I forgot I already have dead space from a humble bundle. Now it shows up twice in my game library.
regardless of what anyone says about privacy violations: FREE GAMES?!
I'm not going to install Origin, but if I did, I would:
- install Origin in a sandbox so they cant see the rest of my files
- or install Origin in a virtual machine (not sure how well that would work with games though)
- or install it on a dual-OS computer (multiboot), with partitions isolated from one another
- or install it on a clean computer with nothing else on it (a PC dedicated to gaming)
I'm sure there are ways of not being affected by their bullshit. And still enjoy free games
What you can have it twice?!?I forgot I already have dead space from a humble bundle. Now it shows up twice in my game library.
I have started to hate used games little by little when started job and using PC as main gaming device. It's just much nicer to have games much cheaper in first place then keep it as selling them is so much pain and hassle and you may get maybe third of money back and if you ever want to get back to that game you have to re-purchare it. That doesn't even include the fact that makers of the game doesn't get any money when trading second hand copiesHmm, add the ability to resell the games I have purchased/legitimately obtained and we might be good.
Either way though competition is good, hopefully something will go down in flames and amuse me in the process.

Only major problem has been sharing PC titles with family members as where something like PS3 lets you play every game installed Steam has to be logged in as user who owns the game but they now introduced Family Sharing so even that's not problem anymore - and you can actually share games to friends as well which is great.
No issues with this, hate Origin or not, free games are good. And Dead Space is a fantastic game. Already have it from the Origin Humble Bundle a while ago though. Going to be keeping an eye out for future games. Although I bet Dead Space won't be the last Humble Bundle duplicate title.
Oh it usually represents a bad deal to trade in games, however it is an option I wish to have.
On the bold part what have they done to deserve any?
As for sharing, no argument it is a positive move. However it seems like an artificial restriction.
have on steam (humble bundle sale) and now on origin, you cant beat free lol, origin doesn't bother me at all
There's no privacy violation. It's a rumor from anti-EA circlejerks who gave consent for Origin to grab information (just as Valve does) and spew lies all over the internet.Wait, what ? What's this thing about Origin and privacy violations ?
They can do both.EA should try publishing good new games instead of offering old good games for free.
Origin is a nice client.fuck origin. go and die already EA!
