No idea...
Even if they did come back to Steam I wouldn't buy their DRM infested crap.

More choices couldn't hurt. If EA brings a AAA title or two with them, so much the better.

I didn't know they did come back to Steam at all...
But if they did:

Not to mention the incredibly buggy state their games are in at launch.

If they produce games that interest me – and sell it in a fair and good manner – there is nothing to say against. Maybe they can still improve? ;D

How they "came back" to Steam? With what? I don't see any recent EA titles on Steam. Confused.

I doubt they're really interested in Linux for now. But it'll change sooner or later ;)

I deeply don't care. EA will never have my money doesn't matter what they do.
But it could be a good thing anyway, so linux users can enjoy their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ console ports of their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ games, made reality because they once bought a good developer and managed to turn their games into a utterly ♥♥♥♥.

I'd be all for it if they ported the Mass Effect series or Mirror's Edge over. Don't really care for the rest of their catalogue, but another AAA publisher supporting Linux would still be a very good thing.
