The release date for Mass Effect 3 is rapidly approaching…  Which means press and whatnot has been ramping up…  And I’ve been watching some videos and doing a little reading…

And I have to say that I’m pretty disappointed.  It looks like ME3 is going to require Origin – which means I will not be purchasing it.

Customers purchasing PC editions of the game (retail or digital) will be required to install Electronic Arts’ content delivery and digital rights management system, Origin. The Origin client (and an Origin account) is required to install, activate and run Mass Effect 3 on a PC for single and multi-player portions of the game.^[111]
