Did you know.....

...That you can activate older EA retail titles on Oirgin?
I didn't until last night I was waiting for my BF3 key so I fiddled with it and found out you can redeem CD-Keys.
I added STEAM version of MOH, my retail copies of DS2,DA:O and DA:A
I tried my copy of C&C:Generals but that didn't work I guess it's to old.
Just a heads up for people that didn't know.

Would it take my Mass Effect? Would be good to activate it digitally in case I can't find the disk when I finally decide to play it (in maybe 3 years...)

you what I have Me2 as a etail lemme try if it works.
I'll report back in a few minutes



edit: I dunno about ME1 but I just entered the key from my ME2 deluxe copy and it worked.

According to PC Gamer it works for Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Dragon Age 2, Dragon Age: Origins, Mass Effect 2, Dead Space 2 and Alice: Madness Returns. Don't have any of those games though so meh.

Doesn't work for Mass Effect 1.

Yeah downloaded Origin and tried, doesn't work. Don't have any of the games that can be activated so guess I'll just uninstall origin until I need it. (At first I thought it might be because of it's some kinda hipster EA Value Games version that I got for 5€. )
