Why do they install Origin with boxed copies of games? It's mainly a digital distribution client, that's the most rediculous thing i've hears.

I was kinda psyched for SWTOR but now i'm not so sure. Unless EA comes to their senses and puts in an opt-out for this then i'm afraid i'll have to opt-out of buying it.

Because they look at Valve's Steam service and feel jealous. They would like for Origin to become a Steam competitor without pausing to realize that the reason most people love Steam is because Valve carries a metric fuckton of customer goodwill after years of great service, unlike EA.

Not that what EA is doing isn't scummy but if you use or have ever used Facebook, you've agreed to have far worse things done with your personal data that EA wants to do here and I guarantee you it's already been done multiple times. Almost every digital platform (including Steam though to a slightly lesser degree) has similar terms. If you hate this and use Facebook, you should drop Facebook immediately because they have more of your data and even less regard for it.
Except Facebook only has information you've actually put up on there. They dont give themselves permission to go through my whole damn harddrive like EA is doing here.

Sound great when he's describing it, but I'll believe it when I see the implementation. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Game designers should stop pretending they understand anything about science. The Bioshock and Assassin's Creed games are just embarrassing in their attempts to sound "scientific".

@VincentVendetta: Somehow I dont think it was used games sales that led to this studio's closure. (Hint: It was probably the terrible game they made)

Could be amazing if the controls work as promised. More likely it will be an imprecise mess.
