steam Vs Origin

New events need to be accounted for  Steam Vs Origan. Even with the same "anti-class-action-law-suite" clause. I have to reward a point more too steam for they due allow individual sutes. They also have a new office in Euruop to deal with legal issue their, which is cool! In the first atrial I missed a couple of things that give Steam more points and since Origin has not one any points Steam still wins.

Well if Valve took a page from EA, maybe the revive will also occur like screensots, that would be cool :). 

Finally here is some closing questions: 
a) How many people will read the new EULA and know what they just agreed too?
b) What if someone decides to disagree to the EULA, do I get a refund on my games?

steam Vs Origin

Steam:
- Steam workshop for fan created content(+ 10)
- Have been known to treat they customers better( + 5)
-Better game library.
Origin:
- Has a clause in the EULA which says all disputes between you and EA will be solved by abitration and not by suing them. (-1 point for taeking away my power to sue them, but only -1 for I can't see WHY I would want to!*)
- No screen shot button (- 10 pionts)
-Better in-game menu key(+ 2 points)
-Thinks there invinceable(- 1 point, it's cheeky but does not majorly effect the service) -
* I would rather not get into that sort of legal junk AT ALL!
Both:
- Allow you to download games
- Allow you to authenticate games(DRM)
- Allow you to chat with friends.
-Allow you to download new content and buy new content
-Cloud save game fecture(acass your game from anywhere)
-Automatic updates

Steam WINS...
In fact this is the first time anything I compared got a negative score, so why use Organ -- firstly remember Origian is not a BAD product but it "sucks" compared to it's competitor so the only reason to use it, is if you want to play one of it's exclusive titaltes like Mass Effect 3.
