Is EA All Access Worth It?

[Arbys Roast Beef Sandwich]

New Xbone owner, seems like a no-brainer to try out for at least a month and gorge on some crappy sports games, eh?

[Eel O'Brian]

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.

Also you get 10% off all new games/dlc from EA. It's a no brainer deal especially if you're already going to buy one game from them.

It's pretty much worth it just to play through NFS, BF4 and PvZ but there seems to be almost nothing in the near future that they can add to it, right? 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?

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.

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.

Unless you have a passing interest in any of those games, dont bother

[Eel O'Brian]

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.

Don't you have a gaming PC, Eel? You should check out the giveaways from Origin. I was planning to give Titanfall a try over the winter holidays.

[Eel O'Brian]

Yeah, but I keep forgetting about the stuff EA gives away on PC.

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.
