Limited refunds available from EA on digital purchases

This could potentially change my opinion of EA as a company (I still won't be buying COD though :) ).

Activision is Cod, BF is EA. Hopefully other platforms will look at their return policy.

Article says Steam doesn't offer refund, that's incorrect. They offer a one-per-account refund for most titles (preorders not included). I picked up a game once and instantly regretted it. I contacted them, and they said "we'll give you a refund this once, but never again for anything else".

I really like where EA is going with this. Great step forward for consumers.

Also, if you haven't seen it yet, check out the current Humble Bundle running. It's a bunch of AAA titles from EA, going for basically nothing. A few of them requires Origin, so it seems like a PR move to get people to install it - but so what?

JK. Thanks for correcting me :).
