His point is, whomever had the chat online with origin, is now being told that any purchased goods via digital download with your EA account, and payed good money for games, since EA is now Origin, you cannot log in or use those games,i.e. wasted money and you will never be able to use them ever again, as I read it, in other words, if you bought a digitally downloaded game from EA pre-Origin, your fucked as you can't transfer ownership.
To me , this is possibly illegal, or downright corruption all due to change of name and ownership.
It's like buying a car, then being told you can't use it if another company buys the car maker.
Wankers!
