    I have a $40 credit to gamestop. I was just going to buy BF3 pretty much for CD key. But how do I get the game on the computer if I have no DVD drive? where can I download the game without purchasing it. since i'll have a CD version of BF3 with key

    Do not worry, you can/have to download it from Origin, the crappy EA Steam-like interface!
