Re: C & C Remastered RIP OFF
I would imagine giving such a discount would result in a giant waste of time and resources. First of all, people have the games on many platforms, you can't give a discount to people using Origin without giving it to others or have a bunch of people complain. Secondly is the hordes of people with old disks, serial keys etc. - they will have a bunch of issues getting their games added to Origin, for most if not all it will be impossible and they will complain and the rest will need help. Third, such a discount would make people who want to experience C&C for the first time to feel cheated that they don't get a discount and will make them not buy the game.
In short, IMO giving people that played the original games would be a nice gesture, but an impractical expensive gesture not resulting in any more sales.
