        You must have a small memory. Last time I heard it was Labor policy to censor the internet in Australia. Also worth remembering it is currently Labor policy to force ISPs to keep 2 years worth of all your internet surfing metadata.

          That's true. But it's also true that the Liberals look set to do the same thing.

          Actually, 'censor the internet' was first suggested waaaaaaay back in John Howard's reign.

      • You're trying to justify stealing software?

    Can't go wrong with free!

    Definitely going to hold off buying any older EA titles until Origin has finished offering these "on the house" deals.

      Has Origin been cycling different games through their "on the house" deals on a weekly basis?

      • +1

        Only game so far has been dead space 1

        • +1

          and it was free for a month I think?

        • Yup, the first in the offer was Dead Space, which was available for a month, finishing yesterday. But it seems pretty clear that this is going to be a recurring deal.

          Though hopefully they'll further reduce the time between deals, because a week or two would be plenty.

          They don't exactly have a huge library to rotate through…

  • Thanks! :D

  • Is this the version where the only way you can complete it is with in game purchases?

    • +2

      Pretty sure this is just the original game plus a few minor additions, so no. Plants vs Zombies 2 on iOS/Android was like that, though - frustrating.

        Thanks. After taking a look I imagine this is to get people into the franchise and perhaps buy Garden Warfare that is coming out soon.

        I really liked Plants vs Zombies on my Android till they updated it making you require to purchase everything. Kills the joy… :(

        • I got through everything without a single purchase. The few ads are not intrusive at all. I don't want to say "quit your whining" but "making you require to purchase everything" is simply wrong.

        • There are of course different builds, but I played PvZ and PvZ 2 before they changed it significantly, then much later. They made the game less enjoyable (the map layout in PvZ 2), and much more of a grind, you have to play the same maps again and again to hope that there is the key drop.

          The new gameplay is aimed at MMO players who waste years of their life doing the same actions again and again.

      • I didn't find plants vs zombies 2 hard at all…
        Some levels were tough, but overall you could smash through worlds quickly

  • I have never used origin before. If the game already shown up in my order history, does it mean I can download it anytime using origin client? or I have to get the game using the client?

    thanks!

    • +2

      I can download it anytime using origin client

      This.

  • Thanks op, I also have the sims 3 to download so I can play some old classics :)

  • This for PC or MAC too?

    • Yep its for both PC and MAC. I just downloaded it on my mac and it works fine!

  • It's a shame the PC version never received the updated improvements that the consoles received.

    :(

  • Thanks, login to Origin web and ordered.

    Add another one to my collection but won't play anyway :p

    Downloaded it on Mac. Thanks.

  • is this the latest game version of PVZ ?
    is it newer than version from stopzombiemouth.com deal ?

    • +1

      I believe it's the same.

  • Can someone help ? I tried to download in MacPro, I got error message "YOU NEED ORIGIN TO DOWNLOAD THIS GAME..If you already have Origin installed, just click on the "Launch Origin" button and download the game from your game library." When I tried to download Origin, after the download, I got error message "Safari can’t open the file “OriginThinSetup-2.exe” because no available application can open it." Please advice how I can download on Mac ?

    Edit: I just figured it out

  • +4

    • "Game Of The Year" edition. Comes with more extras then the standard version.

  • Thanks for the post!

    There was an issue that kept us from completing your request. No need to panic, just give it another try later.

    Anyone else is getting this?
