its my opinion and only my opinion so please EA fans do not rage.

Origin doesnt seem to have games I am interested in. Steam however has games I am very interested in

Nothing, just people being silly fanboys and sticking up for greedy corporations

Because it's from EA.
EA's actually starting to improve slightly.

It's broken,it's stiff,it's stale.It's a terrible carbon copy of Steam painted orange.

I like them, and their faster download speeds.

It's actually better than Steam in some regards.

Refund policy, better support etc

The deals are getting quite good too. And you get free oldies sometimes, like Wing Commander 3 I think it was and Plants and Zombies and some puzzle game and...you get the point.

EA also gave me a choice of a AAA game due to the issues with the Simcity launch. I was astounded, I was like "Isn't this the devil incarnate, the worst company on the planet???". Shame Simcity is still bad though.

They just followed Valve's business model, entice users with good games, force em to use Origin, and make the client nonintrusive. Done deal. Here is your deserved 30% cut, thank you for increased market competition.

you want to know whats wrong with origin?
try finding a community full of trolls in a non-existant "off-Topic" section that origin some how doesnt own and probably doesnt need.

Steam Has That.

I also heard obama didnt want a off topic section
im just sayin...

Origin is actually better than Steam in many ways. Most notably, their support service.
