Electronic Arts has just rolled out a new update for its online distribution service, Origin. This update introduces an option via which PC gamers can finally limit their download speeds. This is a must-have option that should have been included in Origin from the get-go. So, better late than never I guess.
In addition, this update for Origin adds an FPS counter for all Origin games. Unfortunately, and as its name suggests, this counter only displays your framerate and nothing more. Still, it’s better than nothing, though we are pretty sure that most gamers – that want an FPS counter – are already using other third-party tools (such as MSI Afterburner) that work perfectly with all Origin games.
Last but not least, EA has introduced cross-game party invites. As such, players can invite their friends that are playing a different game in order to join them.
These new features are available on Origin right now!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
