Then you must really be sickened by the amount of games that push Steam down customers throats.
No one should be suprised by this news, its clear EA is making a move on the DD market after the Crysis 2 thing. I for one am happy that it is not on Steam but wish it wasnt on origin. I'd prefer it on GFWL(If I was forced to have it on a "content lisencing" website) personally just for the XBL intergration. People will suck it up and use origin to play the best FPS of the year.

Slow down. Are you really a PC gamer? GFWL sucks. A lot.

Obviously a PC gamer. I have only used GFWL on 3&1/2 games(Dawn of War 2+Chaos rising, Blacklight and Section 8 Prejudice). Only issue I have come across is I dont get XBL achievements on Secion 8(not a huge deal). Other than that its been great having XBL intergration. I have had insignifigant problems with Steam as well. With all due respect I think many in the PC gamer(not accusing you) community has been anti-MS for a wide array of reasons and are pro Steam due to it being Valve and them having insane sales. I dont believe the horror stories I hear about GFWL and while problems exist it works just fine. I actually hate all DD services except GOG but at least GFWL has a benifit.

That's not clsoe to being true though. The entire PC gamer community hated Steam because Steam was a smoking pile of shit when it first rolled out with Half-Life 2. THen it got kind of better and then here it is now. I won't lie, when GFWL first came out it made Steam's initial problems seem like a smooth launch (pay to play online? LAWL). Furthermore in any dispute between Mac and PC, etc. gamers always side with Microsoft since forever, for obcious reasons.
