I'm the only who is wondering why Battlefield 3 isn't available to pre-order on Steam yet.
I went to search around for a while and I found out that Steam and EA are having some arguments.
It turns out that EA has already made a new kind of 'Steam' and call it Origin.
I tried it and its just a cheap ripoff.

Meh. I have Bad Company 2 on Steam, and it's pretty much pointless. It's not really compatible with Steam at all. By that, I mean you have to add your friends in the game in a separate friends list, and it doesn't run on Steam servers anyway.

Definitely won't be buying it from Origin.

I love buying games on steam when ever available because I can't lose my CD or CD Key

Definitely won't be buying it from Origin.

This, THe system BF3 is using looks like Origin is needed though.

I agree with you guys, I am never buying BF3 on Origin. Its either Steam or physical (retail).
