This is why I haven't bought any EA games for years. There'll be one exception in a couple of weeks which is Battlefield 3 (simply because it's an epic game made by fellow countrymen), but Origin and EA's rigorous DRM process is a load of crap. Especially for games that don't even need any online features to function to a satisfactory level.
