I kind of wish both services would grab the other one's default setting for this and incorporate it as a toggle. I'd prefer the option to download the original version of a game instead of only the latest one sometimes. Steam's way inconveniences less often, but Origin's way you get inconvenienced for the ability to do something Steam doesn't even offer (unless I am ignorant of a means to do such a thing on Steam).

Got 7 games with the site. Surprised it went through.
I'm downloading mine and registering them so hopefully I have no problems lol.
I just need Bulletstorm, but Saboteur and Mirrors Edge would still be good if I can keep them
BF3's original price is $40, therefore it won't work.
Edit: Thought this was from right now. Oops.

Bummed out it doesn't work on Kingdoms of Amalur's overpriced DLC.
Why would it? You're using their code on their client. If they don't like it they can restrict your access to those games. It's not like you're hacking, go for it.

I wanted to take advantage of the code, but honestly there is nothing I want. Already have both Crysis games, Dead Space games, ME1 and 2, Mirrors edge, and dont like racing games. I just look at the rest of it and it's all shit mountain.
Now I own Dragon Age 2.

No clue, I just didn't want to take a chance jeopardizing my Origin account before Sim City 2013 came haha. Went through with it before the coupon apparently stopped working.
As a neat aside, while the code is supposed to not work for anything that can be taken over to Steam, the way that they hand Darkspore's account system and demo means that you can use the game's key to make an account and plug that into the Steam "demo" to access the full game.
So, yeah, I'd recommend Darkspore for anybody that is afraid that EA is going to take their games back.

That doesn't even make sense. OP says it works with SD sale.
You have been saved.

Got greedy and went back for seconds. Here's my full haul.
I might actually mess around with The Sims 2 once everything downloads. That will surely take a while.
And Spore was mostly for the lulz. I want to be reminded of how my ridiculous hype turned into disappointment in record time.

Now this is abuse lol.
It was still working as of 2 minutes ago when I put my order through.
Well I've been doing it for the past two hours, any title, regardless of Slick Deal or not, doesn't work unless it's original price was $20 before the Slick Deals price cut.
Don't think so. Just glance through the thread to see which games work (most) and make sure to put as many as you want on your initial checkout cart. That seems to be the best way.
Only one for me. No amount of advanced jiggery-pokery is getting another to work for me.
I guess I shouldn't complain...

That doesn't not make sense, the code is for games who's original price is <$20. The sale prices in the SD sale aren't original prices.
Still trying. I just want a bloody code for MoH. ):
