Azrael360: Just to answer the original question, I use those 3 DRMs (Steam, Uplay, Origin) and Far Cry 3 is better using Uplay only. The Steam version requires both Uplay and Steam clients running, but Steam doesn't track the game unless you have the Community In-Game enabled (time played), plus other annoyances (checking the integrity of the files re-download many files already "CRC" okay, if you have net issues with Steam you can't load the game with Uplay, etc...). As for Origin, it sucks. That client doesn't uninstall properly the games (leave most of the files anyway), you can't backup the installers (even with the option enabled. The installers are deleted anyway. That option is a disabled leftover from an old update from a year ago that never was removed from the interface), the client is very invasive in the system, has a very poor GUI and keeps forgetting the login credentials even with the option to "remember". It's hardly the true, but it is, Uplay is better than Origin... (but that's just my humble opinion :P)

Yes, I know. With Uplay you have to download the game and install it, then the patches and apply them, and then the DLCs and install them and then activate them with their Uplay codes in the game, but it's exactly the same as installing from retail discs, so... not a big deal. And you can backup those installers for later use.
