First you have to log in to the Origin client.

Use the discount code ORIGIN60.

If you use it on an item and then remove it from the cart, you can return to the store and see everything at the sale price.

Notable stuff:

Bulletstorm - $8

Dragon Age 2 - $8

Dead Space 2 - $8

The Sims 3 - $8

Hot Pursuit - $8

Shift 2 - $8

Crysis 2 - $16

Bad Company 2 - $8

BC2 Vietnam - $6

Medal of Honor - $8

Alice: Madness Returns - $12

Dragon Age Ultimate Edition - $12

Mass Effect 2 - $8

A crapload of games, expansions and DLC are on sale, so start digging.

I was about to make this thread. Great prices on some of these games. Though I'm too broke to afford any of them since there are a few must have releases in the next 30 days. I'll hold off until the Winter Sales, hopefully Bulletstorm, Crysis 2, and Alice drop to these prices again.

*bro-fist* on bolding Alice: Madness Returns. :D Awesome game and truly underrated. Those are awesome deals but I could still see people whining about how Origin is and will be crap. I'll never get it. :) Thanks Baranga! Although I have all of those games already hehe. :D

Sweet, thanks a lot for the heads up. By the way does anyone know if the code can be used more than once on the same Origin account?

I think it works the same as other products. Open up Origin, and then go the store. In the search menu, just type in bioware points. There should be 2 different forms of points, and just add that your cart. Then apply the promo code. It should work like that, although I haven't tried it.

Can anyone else confirm that Origin does not let you buy BioWare points? I added the item to the cart, entered the promo code and saw the discounted value. But on the checkout page, it gives me this error:

"This payment method is only available for transactions where you have elected to purchase in Euros"? :?

Yet, for some games, I guess Origin is the better solution. Where I am, Dead Space 2, for example, costs 20 euros on Origin while Steam asks for 60 dollars. Mass Effect 2 going for 25 euros on Origin while Steam asks for 50 dollars. The whole promos-only-available-for-US-customers thing is still complete bull, though.

Are you not able to activate Origin games on Steam? I bought the Burnout game on Origin for $8 and wanted to activate it on Steam, but keep receiving an "invalid code" when trying to activate it on Steam. Anyone know what's up with that?

Burnout is not a Steamworks game, and it is not on this list. Thus, it cannot be activated on Steam.

Use the origin store, not the social netowork page. I bought 800 BW (10$) for 4$ with the promo code.

Darkspore is $8 as well...that's a really good price for the game imo. Have like 40-50 hours into it...while it does have flaws for $8 that's a steal.

I just copied the code from the OP and it didn't work for me either. Tried typing it in caps lock myself and it still said "invalid promo code" Oh well. Dragon Age: Ultimate Edition isn't even in the Origin store here.

Does anyone else have a problem with their games not downloading? I bought a few games but none of them will download for more than a couple minutes before getting an error and starting over completely. I contacted customer support and they advised me to wait until tomorrow and try again. I'm pretty sure another rotation of the Earth isn't going to fix whatever technical issue I'm experiencing, so I'm looking for whatever help I can get.

Two things.

Firstly, this 60%-off code doesn't work for Australian customers.
Secondly, even if it did, Alice (the only game I want) would still be more expensive than Steam's 50%-off price.

So...not to sound like a broken record, but screw Origin.

I was having problems getting online for FIFA 12 the other day. Something to do with the EA servers being down, maybe related to the problem you're having?

Maybe so. I figured they'd tell me if they had a known issue on their end instead of telling me to wait til the next day. But of course... customer support. Anyway, I've tried again several times to no avail, so I'm just going to do like the nice lady said and wait 'til tomorrow. :(

The code will not work on EA's website. You have to go buy through the client.

Okay, I installed Origin and I see games are already discounted. I guess the promo code isn't needed, but it didn't work anyway. Sims 3 is discounted to $12, I input the promo code, hit "apply", the page refreshes, but the price is the same.
