yep, said it wasn't good value for money, then ironically later they released PlayStation now, which is not good value for money!

Well yeah, they're not going to let you download and keep all the vault games for the price of a one month sub

I own both systems and a PC. PlayStation are on fire of late and MS have pretty much given up on releasing first party games, for now. Yes, Scorpio looks good but Sony will price PS Pro so aggressively at its release along with some mega bundles, it will be hard to ignore. All this should be good for the consumer.
Saying all that, EA Access is brilliant. The Andromeda trial saved me £40 so that's two years subs in the bag...

I feel for you missing out on Andromeda, one of the best games out this year. People who jump on the band wagon and dont want to play it because of facial animations which have been improved somewhat through the latest patch.
Seen as you decdied to even bring in PS4 ill say as much as the games are good that came out recently, they are in my opinion ver yoverated. Generally one time play through games with nothing to do once you complete the story once.
Name one recent PS4 game that i can come home to play with my friends that is really fun.... I cant think of any.

bloody hell, I'm surprised they're putting it on so soon, before 18 is even released. Surely this will tempt the majority of people to just carry on playing last years and wait for the game to appear on access. Unless they're thinking of moving fifa to a subscription model, which I think would be a good idea for all yearly sports games. It's practically propped up by a free to play model already.

No, EA Access is only for Xbox One. PC is Origin Access

I don't think anyone with even a passing understanding of how EA Access works would try to suggest that it should provide new games.

Off topic I know but I (obviously) agree. I haven't got time to play the games EA give me so I'm not going to worry what I might be missing out on. It's the same with the issue of resolution. I'm not going to be playing with two TVs and comparing the difference so what does it matter if one is slightly better. Off topic I know but I (obviously) agree.

Thanks! Always find it slightly funny when people are so defensive over their choice of what is essentially a box of electronics :laughing: I miss out on Forza, EA Access etc but love Naughty Dog games and Bloodborne so it's all swings and roundabouts.
Probably end up with an XBone as well towards end of this console generation anyway :sunglasses:

is origin access for PC £19.99 for the year? i saw a previous post with something like that. i just cancelled my 3.99 monthly so i can get the annual...but cant find it

Didn't playstation say it was a bad idea at first and didn't really want to encourage it?

And as an Xbox owner, i get a tad jealous of the last of us, bloodbourne, horizon zero and that fancy VR headset. Only got the Xbox because of backwards compatibility (of games I'll probably never play again) and the UHD blu ray player (when I'm still on a 6 year old budget Sony set)
Ea access is pretty decent when on offer, a lot of tat included but there are a couple of gems.
If this rumoured ps pro slim gets a uhd drive, might be time to upgrade.

I feel this post deserves its own thread: an honest and neutral appraisal from one side of the aisle to the other (either way) is a truly rare and wondrous thing! Congrats Luke. :smiley:

it's a great deal if you like sports games or shooters. I got it on a cheap deal and the games we've played the most is Unravel (which I had bought anyway) followed by Peggle 2! :stuck_out_tongue:

Pony Island and Hacknet are 2 pretty nifty, small additions.
Does anyone know if FIFA 17 is still a wasteland on PC? Last I heard the online was just loaded with cheaters and no-gooders, and online is basically all I play in FIFA.

Exactly, Sony fans like being ripped off and value such as EA/Origin access just wouldn't be compatible.
Yey for Fifa 17 being available before the end of the football season. Will be playing that quite a bit on PC then!

Get this and the next gen Xbox by the end of the year and 2017/18 should be good for gamers

I'm Hoping this means FIFA 17 will go on sale again on PC to something like the recent sale, of £17.

6 Apr 17#33
It says from April til June, does that mean Fifa will be taken off after June?
Marcoos to 123KS

No, FIFA will be added 21st April, the others will be added after that before the end of June. Actual dates have yet to be announced yet.

You're right, I love the exclusive on the PS4 and would pick up an Xbone too if I thought I'd get a chance to play it but can only find the time for one console these days, as my Wii U found out :laughing:

Nice! Although I did just buy it on PC, it's nice to have it on the XBOX.

Thanks for this heads up. I think EA Access is great this time of year for the free sports games. Madden in February, NHL in March, Fifa in April and then NBA Live in May.
I stopped buying Fifa at all in September due to being able to wait until this moment.

Still got the unused digital code that came with my Xbox a couple of months ago if anyone's interested in playing a couple weeks early

Common sense would tell you, that you need to keep paying! You can't honestly of thought that any company would be stupid enough too do something like that,would you do something similar?

Don't own either so it makes no difference to me, was just asking for clarification

Don't you have to keep your EA access subscription running to play anything you've downloaded through it?
Marcoos to defgimp
5 Apr 178#14
Well yeah, they're not going to let you download and keep all the vault games for the price of a one month sub
voyager123 to defgimp
5 Apr 176#15
Of course. they arent going to give people £100s of games for nothing, people would just get one month a and have all those games, not the greatest way to run business or make money!
Mind boggles that how many people think they get to keep all the games after one month.
littlejimmy to defgimp
5 Apr 172#20
So have a think -
Do you think that someone could have one month's worth for a couple of quid, download literally hundreds of pounds worth of games, then keep them all?
Let us know how you get on after having a think about that.

5 Apr 171#19
It's even funnier when you see they try to charge 12 quid per month for PS Now

I mostly sell codes via post and recorded delivery now. If I do get a digital buyer, I ask for gamertag and home phone number to confirm it's a genuine purchase.

Great to get FIFA but bit bummed with the other two... as I own one... was expecting more.... was expecting army of two to be added (I own that too but still expected it)
It shows how good the service is that I have such high expectations - like others I have said I'll sell my ps4 copy...
And Gary Neville is in the Xbox one version...
Might even tempt me to play Ultimate team thing....

Yes I'm waiting for that then going to sign up, i did own FIFA 17 which i got free with the xbone but sold it on eBay for £25 wish I'd of just used it as 4 months later buyer gets a refund saying unauthorised use of card :disappointed: so yeah I'm looking forward to FIFA and BF1.
