What's wrong with Origin?

Looks like you can also get 50% MoH: Warfighter when you buy BF3 Premium. Not a bad deal for a game that just came out. Though I don't know if it's any good or not.

And I had nary a problem getting the game via Origin (which is also adverting the promotion on the client) - and yes, I live in the US, so this isn't an everywhere-but-NA-promotion this time.

I had played other BF games - just not this one.

Man, I loved 1942. A group of us would go down to the Internet Cafe and spend an entire afternoon mowing one another down. Is it only available via Origin?

Is this another NA only thing?

Nope. I see it. Why do they put it under "demos" instead of "free games"? Weird.

I managed to find it under demos and I live in the UK. Will download and see whether it's the full product or not

I hate how I'm from Costa Rica (Central America) and the store sends me to Europe to pay with Euros (worst than dollars for me)...

Thanks for the heads up!

(I remember the flying in the wings of the planes, or capture the flag with a flying plane pickup) hehe.
