: gameplay is THAT bad from a CD that you have to install to a HD, then that : clearly spells false advertising. This is not limited to Origin, either. What Origin game that has been advertised as being playable from cd hasn't been? I've played WC2, Strike Commander, Privateer, Ultima Underworlds 1 +2, and they've all been perfectly playable on a single speed CD rom drive. -- .__________________________________________________________________________. |Internet: pfle...@scu.edu.au | | One hour from now WING COMMANDER 3 will be one hour closer to release | |__________________________________________________________________________|
