The link below was back in November of 2011, which was an update from happenings earlier in the year and further back than that.

So yeah, I'm very dissapointed because I was so excited for Battlefield 3 after years of playing Battlefield 2. I also bought Mass Effect 2 on Steam so now I'm even more upset to hear the news that Mass Effect 3 is going Origin only.
*sigh* I recieved a Gamestop gift card for the holidays and I was really thinking to get Battlefield 3 so that I wasn't spending my own money on it, but I just can't bring myself to do it. This news of Mass Effect 3 pours salt in that wound.
I'm holding out with the hope that backlash will reverse their stance, but I doubt that'll happen soon, if at all.
