    Step 1: Allow your new games to be sold on Steam, using Steam DRM none of this Origin crap.
    Step 2: Allow my pre 2008 retail games to be loaded/registered onto Origin so I can download and play them when I want.
    Step 3: Don't release games that are not ready or finished We don't like buggy crap
    Step 4: Don't kill off IP with crap no-one wants (Syndicate for example)

    I am sure there are loads more but for me above would make me look at your games again, till then "Up yours"

    Quoting my wo-worker who I showed the article to "buy our love with games!!!"

    In all seriousness though we can start with origin, I think that ea is getting its bad rap from pc gamers not console gamers it was a downhill spiral when they started with the whole information harvesting scandal.

    The EA Humble Bundle and Origin sales have gone a long way to repairing those bridges.

    When gamers look at your company's games come with a "Try before you buy" attitude, that's bad. Because EA spends more time on marketing than just making great games.

    The CEO of Angry Birds even publicly advised EA to look at gamers as fans, not customers.

    Good luck, EA. Weeding out years of bad practices and poor management doesn't happen overnight.

    Stop with the buggy inconsistent launches and and overpriced titles give people some incentives for buying games that cost an arm and a leg and don't work like they supposed to and actually listen to when your customer base tells you something is broken fix it not push out more content and hope we forget about the issues

    am i the only one on here who think EA is actually doing alright? their games are ok (not great but not sucky either) and Origin has not been a problem for me, to be very honest. i think they are doing pretty good!
