    Battlefield 3 Outlook Hazy: Just What is Exclusive to EA's Origin?

    The UK pre-order page for Battlefield 3 mentions that the title will be available "only on Origin." The problem is, what exactly is exclusive to Origin? The complete title itself, pre-order bonus goodies, or the "Limited Edition" version of the game? Perhaps it will be available only in the UK through Origin and other regions will have more download options available?


    Any one of those options appears to be quite viable given the vague wording on the pre-order page. Before jumping to conclusions, what do you think is going to happen with Battlefield 3?

    We've posed this question before, but let's pose it again now: If you can only acquire Battlefield 3 through Origin, will you purchase it digitally?

    Additionally, if you purchase it through retail, there may be a chance that you have to install Origin anyway, much as you do with Steamworks titles and Steam. Will you still purchase it in any form if that is the case?

    I get the feeling downloading battlefield 3 with my british broadband won't be a pleasant experience.

    Also what are the chances origin is a memory sucking piece of crap.

      why pay a third party DD when you can reap 100% of the profit yourself? Now there's no reason to charge $60, but they still will.
