Quote:
It looks like EA won’t be putting Mass Effect 3 on Steam, just like they did with Battlefield 3, as it is Origin only. Origin is EA’s new digital distribution service for the PC platform.
You may be wondering why it’s not on Steam. Well, this is what EA’s explanation is:
Steam has adopted a set of restrictive terms of service which limit how developers interact with customers to deliver patches and other downloadable content.
We are intent on providing Mass Effect to players with the best possible experience no matter where they purchase or play their game, and are happy to partner with any download service that does not restrict our ability to connect directly with our consumers.

If Origin wasn't spyware people wouldn't have a problem with it. Why the fuck do they think it's OK to scan your hard drive? That should be illegal.

I remember when EA did this with Red Alert 3 and used GameSpy. It was terrible.

As for me, I'll definetely Pirate it, unless BioWare grows a brain and removes Origin from it.

He has ME2 on PS3 too, and I think the Interactive Comic lets you make the choices from ME1.

Its most likely that EA is telling BioWare to use Origin without letting them have a say.

Anyways since I don't have a super awesome computer. I'll have to get it for the consoles. I love BioWare btw.

EA really wants to take the joy out of one of the most anticipated games this year, don't they?

So the 360 version will be the best. All choices from ME1+ME2 and no spyware

I disagree.

The Trey version is the best. ME1 choices + ME2 choices and no spyware OR Kinect....and it's on blu-ray.
