It's tempting but I own so many I'd probably only get my money's worth out of mirrors edge..voted hot cause it's a mega price to play 60fps games (lots of them).
Scratch the 60fps games, it's ea so it can be any fps like locked to 30 :laughing:

the free trials are pretty damn good too, ME:Andromeda is coming up and it's 10 hours free play before you decide to buy it (or not).

Looks great. Does anyone know roughly how long ea waits before putting new games on there (bf1 being the game I'm looking for)?
Great deal regardless, had most of these games on ps4, and didn't fancy buying them all over again!

FIFA usually goes in around July. battlefield won't go in until the premium period ends. At least November I guess. It gives you a 10 hour trial.

Finally. I was complaining about the fact that Origin access is £60 and Ea access is £20 for ages.

Yearly subscription to a "vault" of older EA titles, plus trials of new games (e.g. 10 hour trial of new Mass Effect).

How is it buried? On Xbox you just download the game and crack on. Plus it's available a week before release.

Thanks. See deals for EA Access all the time but I'm primarily a PC gamer and there are a few Origin games I'd like to play through that I keep meaning to buy, but this will be far cheaper than paying for them separately.
Does anyone know if DLC is included with this? E.g. if I replay the Mass Effect games before Andromeda comes out, will I be able to play them with all the DLC?
I think he means the fact that it's a 10 hour trial is buried. Easy enough to start playing, not so clear that it will kick you off after 10 hours.

Nice, my £3.99 was due to be taken tomorrow, just changed to annual in the payment settings.

At last !!
My son has it for XBO and I wasn't going to pay £3.99 a month.
I've got almost all the games already..... but so tempted...... maybe I'll wait, but .......BF1 10hrs ! and then ME Andromeda...... Fifa 17 will no doubt join in a few months.
Such good value if u don't own the games.

you don't need to pay £3.99 a month just pay £19.99 per year

I think it depends on the game. I know when I used it to play BF4 and BF Hardline it had all DLC, but I'm fairly sure the ME series doesn't have DLC included.

Why do they have FIFA 15 and 16 in there? Find it hard to imagine many if any people bothering with the older title never mind 16 which is already fairly old
Mikey_b to ljshooter
16 Feb 17#31
Because they've been in there since they launched. No reason to take things out once they are in

I have not played any FIFA games, are you saying the older ones are not worth me downloading and playing?
Just.Wondering
16 Feb 17#32
Nice range of games, but I've played and owned all the ones I would want, the 10 hour free play is a nice benefit, but I imagine if I downloaded and played, I would that not be able to a use a vpn to activate the game into the full game, slow Internet here 3mb!
beljim7419 to Just.Wondering
16 Feb 171#36
How is a VPN supposed to activate to a full game?
Very tempted by the offer....

I'm not going to bite yet. I really want to play the latest Battlefield but want to clear some of my Steam backlog before buying any more games, no matter how cheap. If anyone is interested in waiting on games and not playing straight after release , Reddit has a good section called Patient Gaming. The ethos fits right into HUKDeals...

You wouldn't be able to play BF1 anyway if you subscribed. As it's not in the vault yet.

If you're not used to FIFA then you probably won't notice any difference (apart from the free kicks, corners and penalties which have been changed a lot). I play quite a bit of FIFA and still play on 16. 17 has some decent changes but it's not enough for me to bother paying for it, I'm happy to wait until it comes to access (which will probably be in the next few months).
Well Lets say I signed up for the 19.99 deal , I download Mass effect 3 , play for 10 hours and I really like the game....great...so I decide to buy the full game , someone posts a deal , Mexico , or somewhere in Asia has Mass Effect 3 for 60 % of the cost, can I then log in using a VPN and purchase in the cheapest location , activate on my account for the full game and use the 10 hour download version I downloaded and save myself the time of having to re-download the whole thing again...

I'm sure you're referning to Mass Effect Andromeda though 4th in the series :smiley: Can't wait to get my hands on it.

Really? Leech money? By selling you something?
You get a whole bunch of games to play, plus free trials of new games, for just under 39p per week. Show me better value and I'll show you my ****.

16 Feb 17#48
are they games downloaded locally and played (so you need a pretty decent video card) or streamed off their cloud service?
johnthehuman to mickgoodie
16 Feb 171#49
Yes you download them as normal, it's basically the same as if you bought them.
EA don't have a cloud streaming system.

Seriously? The only indication of max 10hour play is if you scroll down the middle (even lower) and read "Battlefield 1
Experience the dawn of all-out war. Play for a full 10 hours." I almost payed £20. Not a bad deal, but I think T&C should be clearer :smiley:

hahaha. seems like free money for EA. :laughing:
The only way I'd see this being a "hot deal" is if you really really are a fan of those "vault" games and you don't own them and have never played them
AND
just bought your first ever PC and have almost NO GAMES in your steam/origin/uplay/GOG library or you have played all of them already.
AND
you really spend lots of time playing games every day.
Otherwise you're just paying "extra tax" on Battlefield, FIFA, Sims 4, etc. and their respective season passes, weapon unlock passes, etc.

Stupid question but what is the difference between Origin Access and EA Access ? And is this just a PC thing or XBO as well ?
hasj2 to AdamBrunt

EA Access is for XB1, Origin Access is for PC, I'm pretty sure both have identical games and 10 hour trials for EA games.

Slightly different list of games, there's a lot more sports games on the Xbone that were never released on PC.
Opening post
Origin Access, £3.99 for 1 month of £19.99 for the whole year. Seems like a no brainer!
They also have a 7 day free trial available until the 7th March if anybody wants to try it and see if they like the games.
