if they really wanted to give it away for FREE, they should do so w/o forcing that other crap down your throat, good or bad... you don't need it to play the game, right?

To be fair, for a free product i dont see how anyone can complain, BF1942 isnt freeware, its still officially supported by EA, its no different to those players who play Team Fortress 2 is it? Or free to play mmo's

Doesn't matter to me if the program's good or bad. Don't want Origin, don't need it.

I'm the same as Richard, I hate it that I have to download even more programs to get one programs to work, so I'm never gonna download origin, and steam is even worse

I also own battlefield 1942
