This is what is called circular logic. You have assumed what you must prove.

No, my argument dwells on the fact that a person is down rating a product (to be more accurate) for using a business practice that was pioneered by a product he supports.

I don't like how McDonalds makes it so you can only buy a McChicken Sandwich at McDonalds.

its actually one of the reasons why I dont eat McChicken Sandwiches........

But maybe if McDonalds would sell McChicken Sandwiches in Burger King, I'd consider buying one so that I can eat it with my "king" fries that are exclusive to Burger King.[/QUOTE

I was reading through the whole thread, then came across this post. My thoughts exactly.


EA was rockstar, way back in the day. When they actually went by Electronic Arts. Nowadays? They're like a gag bag found at the clearance section in the dollar store.

As a celebration of Origins first year anniversary, they gave me a free game, my choice of: Dragon Age Origins, Spore or Bad Company 2. That's definitely a plus smile.gif

And Steam and Origin both exist to make money, yes Valve is alot cooler about it but it's business guys.

Keep assuming, EAbro.

Ah, OCN. If you don't run Intel and praise AMD at all, you're a fanboy, if you hate on Origin at all you're a Steam fanboy and if you don't spend $600 on a graphics card and instead by a $400 GPU and $200 SSD, you're an idiot. rolleyes.gif

For Christ's sake, Valve, let people choose where they want to install their games! I have Steam on my SSD, so I have to continually uninstall games when I want to play new ones. It is really annoying.

There. It pretty muchs moves your games over to HDD to free up space for SSD.


However, you're doing it TOO often that way. Better to have steam installed on a big HDD and move the games you play most often to SSD. Not too much moving around that way.

Does this work if I say, use this to move stuff from my 500GB main drive to my 2TB secondary?

When I start getting more games, I'll look into picking up some Blacks for storage.
