AudioSurf is great, and it's hard to say no at $2.50
Stuff like Tool and Opeth is interesting, the craziest tracks for me have come through bands like Dragonforce and Rammstein. I've only been through a few songs though. Highly recommended if you're into music

Listen kid, I can remember when Steam use to suck balls and everyone was bitching about having to authenticate HL2 on it which crashed on that same day and no one could activate their copies. k?

At release Steam sucked, correct. Now it's awesome. Which is why I think Origin is a bad idea: I want my stuff in one place. Ideally, I'd like one unified gaming platform across all consoles and the pc, with shared achievements, leaderboards and friend lists.
That'll probably never happen, but EA pulling their games from Steam in favor of their own, unproven, platform is not helping things.

Don't think Origin is a bad idea per se, it's just that EA dropped the ball everywhere they could. No price reduction for EA games on Origin, forcing people to use a piece of software rather than making people want to use it, none of the achievement stuff steam has, zero sense of community, unable to gift people games through Origin, etc etc. The list of things that are just wrong or inexplicably missing from Origin goes on and on. It's just dumb really.
With the release of a few big titles this year they had a great opportunity to set up Origin as a solid competitor to Steam, but they failed pretty much all over the place.

The reason I have no interest in Origin is because outside of Mass Effect, I have no interest in their game titles. I'm gonna rage if I have to use Origin just to play ME3. Maybe if they actually got around to releasing Mirrors Edge 2, Origin just might be worth it. Probably not though.
