‘Green Monday’ sale kicks off on Origin; 40% off nearly everything

EA, banking on the assumption that you haven’t spent all of your money already, has kicked off a “Green Monday” sale that sees basically everything on Origin at 40% off; the catch being that it’s for today only.

There are a few exceptions in this sale, of course – you’re not going to be able to pick up Star Wars: The Old Republic on the cheap, for instance. But if you wanted to pick up, say, Battlefield 3, Need for Speed: The Run, Dead Space 2 and just about everything else for 40% off, you can totally do that. Additionally, the sale doesn’t extend to time cards.

Provided you spend at least $39.99 during the sale – which sounds easy enough to do, what with everything on offer – you’ll get free expedited shipping to ensure delivery in time for Christmas.

Again, this is a very limited time offer so you’ll need to head over to Origin and get started now if you want to take advantage of all of the discounts. You can do that at this link or directly through your Origin client.
