A bit clickbait. EA is still running a store and you won't lose your games, it's just a new app and not called Origin.
Also the bit about 32 bit PC users having to buy a new one is a bit overblown. Who's still using a more than 20 year old computer as their main gaming rig?
- unethical_ban 2y agoMy first-ever custom intel build was a Smithfield Pentium D in 2006. It was the budget dual-core option (dual core!). Overclocked it from 2.66 GHz to 3.6 GHz with 512MB of DDR-600 RAM. It was 64 bit. The AMD Opteron was out of my budget at the time.
- Dalewyn 2y agoThe point of confusion is that Windows 10 32-bit is the last release of 32-bit Windows and which goes out of support later this year. Windows 11 only has a 64-bit version. 64-bit binaries cannot run on Windows 10 32-bit, and presumably EA is dropping 32-bit binaries for EA Application if they even have them (admission: I have no idea if they do). This is why they want Windows 10 64-bit or above. The authors are both confused and have no business writing for Personal Computer World.
