So they have Dead Space 1 and 3, but no Dead Space 2? I don't get it.
Humble Bundle is very well-known for the extra game its put after some days.
I guess DS2 maybe will relieved later.

Meh only thing that i would want is Battlefield 3 but i have no intrest because origin only.
And only reason for that is i chose to use steam for my cloud game libraray and have no intrest to run second program and have split my collection under multiple places.

In short i have too many steam games to bother install origin for one.

yes im a lazy bastard

I don't have NONE of this games.......NONE!!!
So, you have all of them? :p

OT: Got the bundle, just the "basic" version, though - I don't care for either Battlefield or Sims 3. I might probably try out Dead Space a-a-and...I'll have the others available for gifts when I want to gift them to somebody. It's an OK deal.

I've snapped up this bundle, for the price you really can't grumble. Plus it isn't as if as PC gamers we can't fix titles to run without Origin.

Heh... the number 9 top contributor is named "Munchma Quchi."

I sorry, what?

Oh yeah, pretty good deal for these games. Too bad I don't have any cash.

As much as I don't wanna benefit EA, or use Orign, this is an astounding deal. I'd jump on it if my laptop could hope to run any of these games.

This is an incredible deal. PR stunt or no, can't fault them for it. I only have Crysis 2, BF3, DS1 and Mirror's Edge, so this is an awful lot of entertainment for potentially very little money.

Having to install Origin for this bundle made me hesitate, but I went with it anyways. Definetly worth $5 and I've been itching hard to try Dead Space 3 and am somewhat intrested in Crysis 2. The other games I already own or have no intrest in. Hoping they'll add something cool later.

Totally dropping some money on this when I get home. I don't have any of these games, and I have wanted to play Mirror's Edge for a while.

Not having to pay EA makes it even sweeter.

This is the smartest thing I've seen EA do in like ever. A great PR boost by giving to charity, you get more people using Origin, and more people are playing EA games that are all likely getting sequels in some way. As well, people get to benefit from cheap games. My brother and hell even my grandfather jumped up on the deal when I told them. I'm not interested in any of it, but I almost bought them just to be able to give to charity.

Ugh... I feel unclean. I didn't think it was possible, but they finally got me. Origin is installed on my computer.

Well played, EA. Well played.

Wow, awesome deal. I picked it up for $5. Thinking about raising that amount since it all goes to charity.

EA, you done good.

If they provide Steam keys for most of the games doesn't it ruin the point of making you install Origin?

Well it's worth it for Mirror's Edge at least. Also it will be nice to have an updated driving game, since I've still been playing Midtown Madness for my fix.

I am greatly amused at the amount of whining about EA and Origin in this thread. Such hypocrisy.
They got my 5$.
Always wanted to try out Mirror's Edge.

When Origin works, it's fine.
When it doesn't (such as ME3 failing to log in during the launch of SimCity), it sucks.

Anyways, I've already got all those games.

As for why people hate EA ... well ... people think they're the white van that drives up to schools and offer free candy.
The difference being, most of the time they don't bother with the candy.

It's a PR stunt and I still hope bad fire related things happen to EA as a company, it's all for charity, and this is an actually good PR stunt. It shows they aren't entirely trying to suck blood from us. I'll probably grab it.

Good job, EA. You didn't screw up.
