Origin in genuine consumer positive over Steam

Just looked at my Facebook news feed, when I happened upon ;

That is a genuinely positive thing from EA, as much as I do hate EA for all their wrongdoings, and their recent positives won't change that, I do have to give credit where credit is due.

We've all had the same problem, not wanting to blow money as we can't get a refund if we don't like the game, some of us have went other means to get a "demo" well not we don't have to.

It's just for EA games, not third party games.

Yes, I am aware of that. I was saying that it would be a bad idea for Steam to follow suit.

Valve doesn't exactly have enough first party games that people haven't already bought

Some people will never be impressed it seems.

I certainly don't think EA is reformed, but I can see the positives in this move, not that I buy much EA games from Origin.

I can see many flaws already in this system on paper and first read it seems great.

First flaw you are ONLY allowed to launch the game once.

Where on Earth does it say that?

Right Blazin, we get it, you hate EA, good for you.
Move on lad.

I hate EA too, but sheesh.

So this "Great game guarantee" is a farce, waited 3 weeks for a refund, and still nothing. Good guy EA? Sure. They can't do the simplest of tasks because they're an incompetent bunch of morons. Don't be fooled by this veil of ****, they have not changed.

Tried getting in touch with their CS?
