So...I finally wanted to give Origin a whirl. OK...here we go, can't be so bad, right?
Buy Mass Effect 1 on PC (I've got 2 for PC, and 1&2 on XBox...wanted to do a full play through on PC...)
Fine...works well enough. I can see pinnacle station there to...well, for shits and giggles let's also grab that....
DL it all. OK, not so bad. Install pinnacle station.
Complaint 1: Why the hell is Pinnacle station on my top tiered list of games? It's DLC, NOT a game, right? Ugh, what the hell guys...
Anyway, Bring down the sky. It's free, right? Yeah! Let's go DL it. Wait, it needs a CD Key...which I need to get by registering the game. OK. Click register link....and the link is gone. You have to go to their forums, which tells you to...contact EA!
Screw you too, Bioware. Congrats - because you took down the lousy registration page you have pissed me off enough that I want to just go back to my XBox and whine about the Mako some more. What a broken experience this is...
Origin though isn't so bad...and the EA support guys seem helpful enough as well.
Edit: EA Support rocks. 10 minutes waiting...30 seconds typing up my problem, 5 seconds later I had the key I needed. lol...
