Origin sale 50% off

Oh well, I guess I could buy Simcity: Societies if I can't find it anywhere else. I did say I wouldn't get any origin games though.

I share your hatred of origin but the pricing for some of the games are damn good.
I think I'll cave and buy a couple.
 
The force of resistance is not strong with you.
I recently restarted playing Kingdom of Amalur, hating Origin more than Steam. Learnt the hard way the difference between cloud saving and system saving. Lost about 3 - 4 hours of save game time. I was not amused.
Now I just leave the game to autosave only, that way I don't get the problem with it having conflicting save locations, unless there is a way to turn cloud saving off?

Origin menu/Application Settings/General tab/scroll way down, you'll find some checkbox for cloud syncing (memory's a bit foggy, but you can disable it)
 
Very tempted to get Crysis 3, and thinking about Battlefield 3, though not sure if I'll play it.

I was always of the impression that Origin was for PC gaming and a look around their website shows no XBOX games, or at least that I can see. What am I missing?

For Steam: Right Click Game -> Properties -> Updates -> Enable Steam Cloud Synchronisation
 
So many versions of BF3, which would I have to buy to play SA servers multilayer? Not interested in anything else.

Read the banner carefully, it says 'up to' 50% off, sorry mate :(

I see. Thanks for correcting. Not sure whether that helps the situation though..."up to" blows too. I take back what I said about lies though...

Such nice specials. Really annoyed that I cannot make online purchases. :mad::(

Go to your bank and ask for a cheque card. A cheque card has the same numbers on it like a credit card & can be used online. Its limited to whatever money is in your bank account.

A word of warning though: Credit cards have insurance that cheque cards do not. So if the transaction fails (e.g. game is not added but money is deducted) then its going to be a rough battle getting that back.
