    Poor Steam analog.

    • Not a friendly interface
    • Robbing prices for developing countries, charging 1/12-1/5 of median income for a game, which is like $200-500 for US.
    • Unusable shop

    I haven't installed the software so I'm not rating it or giving it a "review". EA has ruined almost every game franchise it has taken ownership of as well as leading the pack in bad "features" in its games. Moreover, the exclusivity of some titles on its Origin service is absolutely maddening (e.g. Mass Effect 3 is the only game in the series unavailable on Steam).

    Said about Origin as an alternative

    It's just not Steam. Honestly at this point in time using any other method is better than using Steam.

    IGotNoExp it costs very little (£20) for a year pass on origin, the year pass gives you a lot of EA games and 10% off any purchases in-game. It also has very clean UI. Overall a great service.
