Also, Erin, if you wake up with your hair on a keyboard you don't remember going to bed with, that is a good time to upgrade to a new computer... without Origin...

I don't want to sign up for your stupid server, I don't want to make an account on your damn website, I just want you to take my money and sell me a product.

And I won't buy it if it is a product I have to ask permission to use*, or rats on me to your server when I'm using it.

*actually I might buy it second hand so you don't see any of the money, then run a crack so it doesn't talk to your server anymore, so it works like a purchased product should

You know what's the actual hilarity of it? Them advertising the program as being "always there" and "living where you live" - and then region blocking areas. So if you move to a region blocked area, it's actually not there and doesn't live where you do.

Wait, what? As in, region blocking PC GAMES? Why? Region blocking is being less and less used these days (I just imported the U.S. version of Catherine for my PAL PS3). Can you give us a link or something?

I prefer this version

But there's nothing creepy about watching a girl sleep, just ask Edward Cullen.

Can't give you a link, but was told to me last night by an EA customer service rep. I was looking into whether it was possible to get The Old Republic in Serbia via Origin by having a friend from UK buy it for me and pass me the account info. Apparently, Origin'd just IP block my arse >.>

Game's not region blocked, but Origin itself is apparently.

Heh, great as always. Also, it's nice that you didn't keep the font you had before. Now I can read properly again.

...is that a meerkat wearing headphones? Man this web-comic is trendy as heck.

I'd say it's a ferret.

I really want that shirt. Only without shoulder straps.

Why does Origin remind me of Aigis from Persona 3?

Oh good. Glad I'm not the only one that thought so.

 

[akibawall95]

Creepy, glad I'm not using Origin.

I played Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet at PAX East, it seemed pretty interesting. Unfortunately I did not get to play it for very long. Another Summer of Arcade title I played at PAX was Toy Soldiers Cold War which look like alot of fun.

Origin offers nothing interesting compared to Steam, gives no good reason to install

But the annoying thing is that they do...

They hold the Battlefield and Mass Effect series to ransom, and I have to use their pointless online service if I ever want to see them again.
