Same. Has anyone figured that out?
Isn't Alice $29.99?
That's true. The music is much better than C&C3's, but I prefer C&C3's game play. But why choose? RA2 still exists! Shame The First Decade is physical only.
Bulletstorm
Mirror's Edge
The Sims 2 (3 if you can)
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit
Command & Conquer 3 and Kane's Wrath
Dragon Age Origins
Crysis

Yes, some recieve it instantly once they put the order, but it may take some time, my first order with 15+ games took 5 hours haha , so if that's the case (hopefully not), be patient.

They're thinking "We need a press release to announce the success of Origin and it's higher number of registered accounts."
"Holy crap people are actually downloading Origin!"
Sim City 4 bought, thanks!
Yeah. I wonder if this was expected and the server admins were given a heads up.

Some have claimed success. In 3+ hours of trying spread over 4 accounts, I have gotten exactly 3 separate transactions each and every time. All 3 with relative ease. Nothing beyond 3.

I hope we see a PR statement about how Origin membership has accelerated
What konami code said

Seeing as sometime between now and when it first when up they've updated restrictions and still allow for multiple games on the same account, a lot of it's probably deliberate at this point. BF3 premium through another region on Origin was super cheap once and that only lasted for a few hours.

what are you waiting for
Because the products were all purchased firsthand legitimately from the original source using promotional offers the distribution source created and put into motion. Using their own terminology from the confirmation email, everyone who used these deals placed an "order" where the buyer was given a "receipt" for "purchased games."
I kinda see where you're coming from, but this is exactly the opposite of piracy. A transaction was made with the distributor for download access and matching product keys for individual pieces of software. Each transaction used deals that the distributor created and set into motion. Everything here is legal and above the board, so to speak.
Just because the distributor didn't take into account what the offers really meant when used together doesn't mean that customers are in the wrong for using the offers the distributor created and provided.

Wow. It's been way too long since I've played The Sims 2. I used to have only the base game and it ran at sub 30 FPS on low-medium settings on our old desktop. Now I have nearly all the content and it runs like butter. This is going to be a totally different experience.

just didn't work for me, at all. incognito, different computers, different browsers, different OSes.

The code doesn't work for me anymore. Cleared cache and cookies. Private browsing or incognito. No dice. Maybe EA caught on?

So I got DS and shank 2, but i cant seem to get a third. Tried cookies and everything. Finally blocked to one?
Same here. 2 was the limit grabbed The Saboteur + Command and Conqueror which I will probably never play.
Just asks for credit card info, the code still works.
Didnt work for me on my first try. Had Battlefield 3 in the cart, entered the code and nothing happened to the price.

Looks like you paid them full price if it asks for CC info.
EA wins. This was the plan all along.

Just ordered Pinnacle Station for Mass Effect. Using the code.
Haha, if it asks for cc info that means you're paying.

It asks me for CC info once. I didn't enter one of course. It means your paying.
Well, gonna clear cache and cookies again.

Isn't downloading a game supposedly something you should not be able to do, but because some people circumvented the measures against it it can? Wouldn't it be the case of people with 20 games, when the website is telling you that the code is invalid once it has been used? So morally, it's a one time use. They screwed up? Yes, they did. But it's not like we're doing a right thing exploiting it. getting one game for free is not exploiting it, as it seems to be the purpose of expanding origin. So it's a trade of non-benefits from ea to promote the service. 20 times... not so much.
I thought I could get B3 with the slickdeals $16 price. Oh well, thanks.
Edit: getting it to work fine with games other than B3...
