Origin sucks (in case you needed a reminder)

if you are thinking of buying any game released by EA do yourself a favor and pop into town to buy a physical copy, I've just installed windows hate on my pc and have had to download my games again.
Steam: 3 games downloaded in a few hours
Origin: one game 65% downloaded and its taken me all friggin day!
what's worse is that the % keeps dropping back, so far its been as high as 70% but keeps slipping back to around 60%
save yourself the pain and buy a physical disc if a game you really want is on this platform, even if you have to buy the box online and wait a few days for it to arrive there is a good chance it will still be faster than trying to download it via this POS client.
and there was me looking forward to playing NFS: the run tonight
what makes it worse is that i still have 2 other games from them that i need to download, at this rate they may be finished by xmas
