Title: Is EA All Access Worth It?
Post by: Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich on December 16, 2014, 10:19:37 PM: New Xbone owner, seems like a no-brainer to try out for at least a month and gorge on some crappy sports games, eh?

Post by: Eel O'Brian on December 16, 2014, 11:12:38 PM: Yeah, it's a lot of bang for the buck. BF4, NFS Rivals, PvZ Garden Warfare, Peggle 2, and they're getting ready to add that UFC game.

Aside from Dragon Age, which I'm sure they'll hold onto for a while, it's just FIFA and Madden once they add UFC, right?

I received Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4 (timed trial, but enough to play through the campaign), Garden Warfare, Peggle, and another Need for Speed for free in the same time. For $5 per month I would expect more. If you're a sports gamer, it's probably worth it for the early access.

Post by: Eel O'Brian on December 17, 2014, 09:51:54 AM: I'm just saying that if you have a new XB1 and no games, for $5 you can definitely get a month's worth of enjoyment out of it. You can cancel any time. A year? Nah, I doubt they'll add enough over the year to make it worth it. I canceled mine because I got PvZ for free during the PSX EA giveaway, and I picked BF4 for PS4 back up during Cyber Monday for $15.

Post by: Eel O'Brian on December 17, 2014, 02:52:36 PM: Yeah, but I keep forgetting about the stuff EA gives away on PC.

Post by: Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich on December 18, 2014, 12:50:54 AM: Thanks fellas. Yeah $5 seems about right to pop in and check out BF4's shitty campaign and get a few rounds of FIFA in. I dont know what else they plan on putting in the "vault," but the selection wasn't that bad overall if your expectations are low.
