For the ADD-on for BF2142; Nothern Strike we allready had to use EA-Store. Northern Strike gets deliverd with only a code. No CD or DVD's or such. It does work the same as Steam as you need to be connected to the store if you want to play NS.

Is it not the same as EA Link?.

AFAIK Valve and EA already has some partnership agreements... interesting...

Recently new gamnes on ea link have had very high prices. Now with the advertisement to drop our carbon footprint surely publishers should be helping out with this by making games to download that much cheaper. Steam have sales and their older games are very reasonable with the odd new release being high. Any other thoughts?

I believe there was a thread a bit back about this. Retailers wouldn't get anymore profit this way and they forced EA to have higher prices because otherwise they wouldn't be able to sell anymore games.
I hope you get what I mean.
