    @janpd24  I'm not sure what the exact size is but it is large. The software on the disc is dated. If you install from disc you will have to download and install the version 1.67 version manual supper patch. Then Origin will patch the game to version 1.69 (the latest version). A guess the TS3 installer is about 6Gb.

@janpd24  The dvd expansion packs came with a code. You can redeem these codes in Origin and those packs can then be digitally downloaded. you do not have to repurchase the packs. Once the base game and packs are in Origin you should not have to worry about codes. There is no install limit with Origin as only one person can be logged into Origin at a time and when you upgrade to a new computer all you have to do is download the Origin client and log in with the same login and password as before and your games should be there for download. Much like Steam. I recently bought IP from amazon and all I did was redeem the code and downloaded the pack.
