I have the weirdest boner right now...

...I really can't stand the anticipation for BF3. I wish we could get a Videosift Group setup like we have in Steam...but until then, feel free to add me to your friends list (Gamertag: Hyperplasia)

Such a terrible shame that EA have made bad game after bad game after bad game followed by bad updates and bad expansion packs and are known for nothing but buggy money-grabbing flops.

Otherwise i'd be excited about this. As it happens, i can't trust it and i can only even think about buying it when it's been out for 6 months and universally accepted to be a good game.

Frostbite 2 engine has some amazing features (micro-destruction, quasi real-time radiosity, streamed texturing) yet it's all wasted on EA's douchebagness. BC2 in 3D Stereo is just amazing. I'd love to get BF3, but through Steam, not Origin. I will boycott this product until I can get it without having to run Origin on my system.

Another example of EA buttassing a perfectly good product...

Deathcow,
Back in '92, I used to love EA and Apple. Somehow they became letigiously evil after the dot-com crash.
I play BC2 through Steam, and most of my games through Steam. I have too many friends there to just pick up and switch because of EA's Origin (which I also have used for Warhammer Online and plan on never using again). The difference between Steam and Origin is that Steam supports all sorts of games, not just Valve's, and I can play BC2 without having Steam running when I don't want to be bugged by online friends. Origin, on the other hand, is a distribution system for EA only - it's social network features are shitty. It is required to play BF3 even if you buy the BF3 DVD at the store. Origin doesn't have any incentive to get better, or leaner, as it comes not as an option to the customer, but as a requirement. It's a resource hog already and it will only get worse. Steam has to prove to both vendors and players that it's worth their while. It is an option and not a requirement, and best of all, you own your games for a lifetime. With Origin, you lose all your games after 2 years of inactivity. I do not want to rent my games from EA. I want to own them and use them through a third-party service.

As wargames become more and more pseudo-realistic, I'm left to wonder how people who've seen actual combat feel about people simulating it for fun? It's got to at least be a little weird, sometimes.

@MarineGunrock? Others? I'm sure there's plenty of vets on the sift, but MG's the only one I know of, specifically.

Tons of fun, provided the games don' suck. Bad Company 2, for example. What a shit game.
