Has any internet news sources exploded with this story yet?

[QUOTE=Nemisis116;38029043]Has any internet news sources exploded with this story yet?[/QUOTE] Tomorrow there will be a lot of coverage I bet.
Wonder if this is actually staged by EA in a desperate attempt to "make more sales" and increase user accounts. Whether they lose money from this, they make plenty of money elsewhere, so this could benefit them in the long term, just not the short term. Does seem suspicious that they've been slow to act on it.
What if EA still has no idea that something is amiss? Have they had any response yet?
Wait what happened to all those EA defenders from that simcity 5 thread?
[QUOTE=Rocko's;38029055]Tomorrow there will be a lot of coverage I bet.[/QUOTE] I can already see it on Fox News. "Hackers from Reddit Stole Countless Games From EA!" Oh and of course the main article picture will be a guy in a ski mask holding a laptop.
Site is going mega slow now Don't die on me now baby, I need BC2 for PC
[QUOTE=Disotrtion;38029060]What if EA still has no idea that something is amiss? Have they had any response yet?[/QUOTE] Nobody would be crazy enough to pass up free games and report the problem. Although, EA themselves will notice an anomaly in recent surge in "sales" and look into it.
This is obviously viral marketing bullshit. I still don't want your game EA, fuck you and fuck origin.

[QUOTE=Disotrtion;38029031]fuck no, moh 2010's dead as shit I stopped looking for servers months ago Multiplayer wasn't that great in the first place and then BF3 came out so everyone left.[/QUOTE] welp [img]http://puu.sh/1eGhd[/img] at least it was free

Multiple 0.00$ orders [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/xZ6fW.png[/IMG] Its doable, but a long boring process. There is a risk that all the titles with the promo code will get reset. Recommended course of action : Buy titles 1 by 1.

[QUOTE=Disotrtion;38029060]What if EA still has no idea that something is amiss? Have they had any response yet?[/QUOTE] I bet their emails and twitters have exploded But I'll make sure just incase [IMG]http://puu.sh/1eGlq[/IMG]
You would have to be a complete idiot to think EA hasn't done this on purpose--they already said recently that they know among most PC gamers Origin has a shitty reputation. Good luck with getting any good games in the future if you support companies like EA.

Anyone getting success installing the games?
OK so these are the games I got. [img]http://puu.sh/1eGmh[/img] Any other ones I should get? I have burnout, bulletstorm, bad company 2, and bulletstorm among others on main origin and steam already.

EA are a bunch of assholes, this is the only way they have to get any reputation in the first place. If they weren't complete faggots they would've just given out games for free. This is viral marketing reddit faggot bullshit. Fuck Reddit, Fuck Biggies Smalls, Fuck EA and Fuck You.

I never said you can't express your opinion, freedom of speech man.
[QUOTE=Woovie;38029138]Conductor of the EA hate train right here folks.[/QUOTE] I agree there could be some inside thing there, but I see nothing wrong with Origin, I like it. EA do make some good games, just they screw themselves over sometimes.
[QUOTE=legolover122;38029143]Uuuuuh. They are running a business. Games don't make themselves.[/QUOTE] Yet Valve has released how many games for free? And given stupidly large discounts on how many of their other games? EA will never contribute positively.
