Dead Space is free on Origin, more free games coming soon
If for some reason, you've yet to play the original Dead Space, you'll be able to pick it up for free on Origin today.
Updated with information on EA's "On the House" promo.
If for some reason, you've yet to play the original Dead Space, you'll be able to pick it up for free on Origin today. Simply add the game to your cart and checkout, and it'll be added to your digital library.
Dead Space is actually the first game to kickstart a new promo by EA. Called On the House, the publisher plans on releasing full games, expansions, and more at no cost. They can "appear and disappear at any time." And once you've purchased the game for free, it's yours permanently.
So, why is Origin doing this? "We're gamers, too. We appreciate you making Origin your gaming home ... and besides, who doesn't like free stuff?"

I would - I had a huge amount of fun in Dead Space 3's co-op mode. I've played through it a couple of times with friends and felt it was well worth the purchase despite a few annoying bits, if only because it's fairly rare that we actually get a decent scripted co-op action/adventure game these days.
Plus, it was really fun trying out the crazy part combinations for my weapons and showing them off to my friends.

I can't help feeling like giving games away for free will cheapen their intellectual property. Where did I hear that? Oh yeah: http://www.shacknews.com/article/74220/origin-boss-steam-sales-cheapen-intellectual-property

Hmm, now I have TWO copies in my Origin account! I didn't realize I already owned Dead Space (must've been in a previous Humble Bundle, I guess?), and both show up. I can't delete the extra, but at least the Origin client allows me to hide it (along with a bunch of Sims crap that I somehow acquired).
