For those of you who are unfamiliar with Origin, it’s EA’s answer to Steam. It’s EA’s bastardized, corrupt version of Steam. Not only does its EULA violate quite a few German laws, but users have also been temporarily banned for speaking ill of Electronic Arts.

If you’re really into certain EA games, though, it might be the only way for you to play them. So, if you own a Mac and have been wanting to catch up on some of the backlog, you’re in luck now. All you have to do to play your beloved games is stick your hands in the barbed wire that is Origin.
