29. Re: Origin Boasts 4M Client Installs; Promises Third-Party Content Sep 10, 2011, 13:19 nin
 

What games are currently released that require Origin on PC?

The 4M number can't be all BF3 preorders because there aren't that many across all platforms let alone PC and a preorder doesn't have to mean they installed the client anyway.

So we're left with other games that require Origin (I admit I have no idea what these are) and games that optionally use Origin that prompted the user to willingly install Origin. You don't think 4M installs in 3 months for a service that most people don't want is unusually high?

I'm going to guess that a lot of that is TOR traffic. If you ordered through EA, you needed an origin account. And even if you didn't, everyone that preordered got an early access code, and I think you needed an origin account to register that.
