Having them on Steam at least brings in a small amount of revenue from such games, games that might otherwise not have enough appeal to force someone to use Origin to get them. Other types of games tend to have unique plots, characters and game modes that may be totally different to the most recent installment. The Sims franchise is a bit different from many old games you find on Steam, in that each installment is a more like an iteration of a basic gameplay platform, just with more content and nuances in the features. Not being on Steam would be a major financial loss, given how widespread Steam use is compared to Origin, so not selling The Sims 3 there is probably a financial mistake. However they probably also recognize that if someone is reluctant to use Origin but still wants to play a version of The Sims, they might just be tempted into buying The Sims 3 that is available on Steam instead as a satisfactory replacement for the absent old version. However, in all likelihood I doubt that EA would be willing to re-write such an old game to work with Steam's modern business model.ĮA probably recognizes that if a gamer wants to play The Sims or some version of the gameplay experience it provides, then they want you buying the most recent and most expensive version (that also happens to be a major cash cow with numerous DLC, expansions and microtransactions). So to answer your original question: Yes, it's possible that we could see the original Sims on Steam, but it would have to either be a "complete" version that includes all of the expansions, or the expansion packs would have to be purchasable DLC on Steam. EA has gotten around this issue before by releasing the "Complete" version of games on Steam, such as Crysis 2. They would have to ensure that the non-Steam versions of the DLC (sold on Origin) didn't work with the Steam version.ĮA doesn't like this arrangement, because Valve gets a cut of the profits on the first purchase (the base game) and a cut of the profits on DLC purchases as well. So if EA wanted to release something like the new SimCity game on Steam, they would also need to release their plethora of DLC for the game on Steam as well.
The point of contention between EA and Steam is that Valve requires that DLC available for a Steam game be purchasable through Steam.
