Origin is here... that mean's it's almost SimCity time!

A Mac client for EA's digital distribution platform Origin was launched today, as first noted by AppleInsider. Origin for Mac was originally announced in August 2011 and went into alpha testing in late January.

Origin is quite similar to Valve's Steam and allows users to download games and demos, chat with friends and continue saved games from most computers.




Unfortunately no release date is set yet...

The "SimCity" disaster is finally over and the effort to rebuild has already begun. That leaves only one question: seriously, when is 'SimCity' Mac coming out? Can you buy the PC version and then use the Mac version, like Steamplay? What are the system requirements? Will there be server problems? Okay, that's more than one question. But all of them are key elements of the "SimCity" Mac equation.

It's killing me... however I am glad the Windows people had all the problems.
