Battlefield 3 might appear on Steam

Reported Valve leak suggests that EA and Valve are close to an agreement on bringing Battlefield 3 to Steam

How? So steam plus server browser.... Not much difference if you ask me. I guess one less retarded client running.

Actually since BF3 requires Origin, if it did go to Steam I would guess you would have Origin and Steam running ..... o.O

That's what I was thinking.

Launch Steam
Launch BF3
Origin Launches
Launch BF3 again
Opens Browser
Launch BF3 for real this time

That sounds like fun.

You know that even now you don't need to click on launch BF3 from the Origin menu to play BF3. You can just open up Battlelog log in and launch a game from there.

Good news, anyone know how to cancel the pre-order?

Hmmmm joy... I think I'll avoid a Steam download... 1 DRM is fine. Even with Origin being a pain, I'll live with it. I don't want to see the chaos that ensues with dual DRM. Although Ubisoft games that use Steam and the Ubisoft DRM don't seem to suffer any problems. Well we'll just have to wait and see if this actually materialises?

Depends on who you pre-ordered from. But usually there should be an option to cancel your order. Getting your money back might be a bit more of a pain

Through origin.The biggest problem i actually have is, I created a ArchieChoke account for BFBC2.
Now when I tried my ArchieChoke account it wouldnt let me use it, so i tried to Register a new account for Archiechoke.
But it was taken so i went and used ArchieChoke1, I too also pre-ordered BF3 on ArchieChoke1.

So i think you get what im trying to do.

Now my only issue is, i log into origin, click customer support, asks me to enter login information and tells me my information is incorrect. RRR.....

If it runs on steam, I doubt you will have to launch Origin as well. I hope it won't be like the Splinter Cell launcher...
