Origin update for today July 20th 2011

[Lordsethonan]

So I went and fired up Origin to see if I got any BF3 alpha invite or something; I found thise in the update notice:

-It gives the option to make any game to be included in the origin launcher; ala xfire and Steam.
-It integrates facebook, PSN and Live functionality to build friendlists from those sources.
-Autoupdates for your games.
-Some other minor stuff like safe browsing for underage costumers and such.

currently installing, will report on the thing.

Running my update right now as I type. Now if I could just get more friends to play PC games. :sigh:

I forgot last night because of the leaked footage; but the add new games option is bugged or not easily implemented, I can't make any non origin game work in origin :P

Works faster for me than Steam when going shift+F1.

Looks like the overlay and community is disabled now for games like BF2 (there is an option to turn it on for untested games). Lets see if I still get those mysterious PB kicks now.
