Origin offers free limited access to games, starting with Titanfall

4.3
Titanfall will be free to download and play for 48 hours this weekend as part of Origin's new Game Time service. Unlike Steam's Free Weekend program, Origin is making select games free for a set period of time that starts once you begin playing.

Just to note, that's real-time rather than game time, so the free mech-mashing ends after 48 of your Earth hours. EA also says progress during free access is saved, so if you choose to purchase the game afterward you can pick up where you left off.

Game Time is the latest of a few recent initiatives to bolster Origin. EA introduced On the House to the portal earlier this year, with the service offering permanent freebies that have included Peggle, Dead Space, Battlefield 3 and Plants vs. Zombies.

Bankais Seems like EA is trying to get their traffic up with all of these free games and sales and such.


yea but they are just taking that idea from steam but its good to get more people for origin

KevinG Origin is trash. It is confusing and gets in the way of many things.
I still like steam and there deals. Origin just copies but does little to no modifications to bring in people for $$$.


i agree but origin is not that bad, but steam is definitely better especially with the deals
