EA is moving one step closer as a competitor to services such as Steam, Games for Windows, and OnLive starting today. By using an old name reminiscent of an old developer the company bought many years ago but later disbanded, Electronic Arts has released a new version of its online store that offers over a hundred games on its online catalog. Also, the Origin desktop application, formerly known as the EA Download Manager, offers similar features seen in other service, including social features such as importing Facebook friends, friends list, and chat integrated into games. This is only the beginning as EA is going to offer more features in the near future.

EA da un paso más adelante como un competidor a servicios tales como Steam, Games for Windows y OnLive a partir de hoy. Mediante el uso de un antiguo nombre que recuerda a un antiguo desarrollador que la empresa compró hace muchos años, pero más tarde lo disolvió, Electronic Arts ha lanzado una nueva versión de su tienda en línea que ofrece más de un centenar de juegos en su catálogo en línea. Además, la aplicación de escritorio Origin, anteriormente conocida como EA Download Manager, ofrece características similares como en otros servicios, incluyendo las funciones sociales tales como la importación de amigos de Facebook, lista de amigos y charla integrada en juegos. Esto es sólo el comienzo debido a que EA va a ofrecer más funciones en un futuro próximo.
