Nope. All upcoming EA games will only be on Origin now.

Well they just lost a sale then cause I don't want multiple launchers loaded on my pc ... shame I actually wanted to try this one
I agree. They lost sales from me on
Mass Effect 3
Battlefield 4
Crysis 3
Garden Warfare
Sim City
TItan Fall
I guess they don't care about a few hundred dollars from one disgruntled customer? 🙂

EA is boycotting Steam by pulling all of their new products. They are also still beta testing Origin, which is only a slight touch more advanced than the alpha test of EA Download Manager. Both products fail miserably compared to Steam but EA doesn't have to pay Valve 25% cut. In the end, it's always about the money.

It's not boycotting. You don't want a monopoly in anything. It's just easy to hate on Origin. Competition is good and makes sure both programs keep improving. People are quick to forget how horrible Steam was when it first came out (friends list didn't function for a long time).

Yup. Just lost another sale of one of their games here too.
If they had an Origin free version I'd buy that, but don't need another "store" program running just to play something.
Origin, seperating the PC gamers, from the steam casuals since 2011. 😕mileytongue:

And let's not forget how absolutely horrible Steam support is. For the biggest online game store in the world Steam is a total cluster**bleep** when it comes to support (with 14 day waiting times for a simple e-mail reply being "normal"). EA on the other hand has some of the best support I have ever seen. I used to loathe Origin but these days I don't mind it so much. I only run it when I play an EA game, same as I do with Steam. No biggy t.b.h.

Yup.
Because only a casual would use Origin, since they don't know everything EA touches is sh*t or soon to turn to sh*t.
90% of Origin "users" have it for 1 game.

it won't be going on steam (not entirely sure) and while i agree that a large portion do use steam instead of origin, getting the statistics of 90% have Origin for 1 game out of someone's tush is quite a horrible percent.
there are tons who have Origin for multiple games.
