Well, that would not really surprise me, I think they did a similar fuckup 1 year ago.

So I decided to try and go take the survey now just in case:
"Thank you for your interest in participating in this survey for Electronic Arts. We’ve concluded this survey earlier than expected. Watch your email for more surveys from EA in the future. If you received an invitation to take this survey via e-mail, you will receive your exclusive discount code delivered to your inbox later this week. "
curses...

so... does that mean ... someone could add one more game to their "expanding" origin library?...

I just wish they'd kept the damn thing up just one more day, at least until Sunday night.

You are correct the point was to get people to come which it did, now me3 is 12$ and bf3 is $16 currently. People are going to buy because like me we humans see something cheaper than ordinary price range and grab it. Good move by them.

Until I get my Spore: Creepy and Cute expansion, I hold the right to dislike EA! (Although, if they DID mess up again and I got the game, I would change opinions faster than Mitt Romney)

ME3 £12.99 in amazon uk
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mass-Effect-3-PC-DVD/dp/B004T8C20U/ref=sr_1_1_title_2?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1350367188&sr=1-1
It is the physical copy but I think it updates over the network as well.

ME3 requires Origin to work, so it updates through it :)

I hope it can be used on anything. I want Armored Kill

Steam came first, that's my problem with Origin. I really don't like the idea of using two different services for games. Especially when Origin only has EA games. EA thought they could compete with Valve when in reality they never stood a chance. Their stubbornness annoys me, I've written off some of my favourite franchises such as Mass Effect and the Crysis series just because EA wants to force people to use their sub standard service.

Umm you could buy Crysis on steam you do know that right?

"Steam came first, that's my problem with Origin."
That's not a problem with Origin. Do you know, that Steam wasn't great when it started too, don't you? And that at first it had only Valve games?
Steam also has DRM, maybe more restrictive in average than Origin.
You said, you wouldn't want to have all games on it, even for free. Even when Origin gets more titles from other developers? Because for sure it will get them.

Almost sounds as though you believe Origin will survive...
I'll quote myself AGAIN, "Steam came first, that's MY problem with Origin."
MY problem, as in Jonex's problem. Origin can't keep up with Steam. Instead they decide to just piss people off by releasing their published games exclusively through their dying service. I like my games in one place on one account where I can keep an eye on all of them and be part of a single community.
Back in the early days of Steam I was obsessed with Half Life 2. I downloaded and installed Steam just to play it, but things were different then. Valve were moving in a new direction and based on my interest in their games I decided to follow. Origin want a piece of the pie but are simply too late.
Steam have incredible sales, INCREDIBLE sales. Origin have "key leaks" that give free games to all those desperate people out there. I can assure you, Origin won't last and if it does I want nothing to do with it.
To sum up Origin, if you can't keep up, don't step up.

The community manager at ea posted this
Hi everyone,
Last week, we emailed some Origin users in North America asking them to participate in an online survey, and offered a promo code for $20 off their next Origin purchase in return for completing the survey. Unfortunately, due to some misuses of the promo code, we had to discontinue its use early before its stated expiration date.
We wanted to clear up the confusion: all users that completed the survey will receive an email soon (in the next 1-2 days) which will contain a new code for $20 off a purchase of any EA game on Origin priced $19.99 or above.
Thank you again to all users that took the time to provide us with feedback about Origin.

Get ready guys!
