Despite EA Origin head David DeMartini recently pouring scorn on the hefty discounts available in Steam sales, EA has launched a digital sale of its own, with one EA game discounted by almost 90 per cent.
Rock Paper Shotgun spotted the sale, which discounts Dragon Age: Origins by 87.5 per cent, to just £5. Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit, Darksiders and Battlefield Bad Company 2 have all had their prices reduced by 75 per cent.
Less than two weeks ago DeMartini said that Steam sales "cheapen your intellectual property. Occasionally there will be things that are on sale [on Origin with] a discount - just don't look for 75 per cent off, going-out-of-business sales."
