Battlefield 3 not currently for Steam

In what appears to be an attempt to gain support for EAs new Steam-like service Origin, EA has not listed Steam as an outlet available to download Battlefield 3.

Origin launched in Beta form back in June, with The Old Republic being one of the titles exclusive to the new download service when the game comes out later in the year.
