Exactly! JB that just is not smart. I can see only buying into months you care about but you might as well buy the yearly package.Quote:

NHL 15 is now available in The Vault.
Starting to get some good value now. I will probably be picking up a monthly subscription in August just ahead of Madden. So how many games are there now?
In The Vault is:
NHL 15
Madden NFL 15
NBA LIVE 15
EA SPORTS UFC
Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare
FIFA 14
Battlefield 4
Need for Speed Rivals
Peggle 2
Madden NFL 25
There may be more, but this is the most complete list I could find/put together.
The Vault still restricts the amount of hours you can play right?
Someone else would need to verify, but I think the time limit is only on pre-release titles. So long as you are an active EA Access subscriber, I believe you get full access to titles in The Vault.Quote:

Dragon Age had a trial too. I would have liked that.

10 Hours to try out Rory a week before release.

Rory McIlroy PGA Tour is officially out on July 14 but those with an EA Access subscription on Xbox One will get the opportunity to play it starting July 9
Really hoping they extend all sports titles to 10 hours...Quote:

I think Madden is up on August 20th (isn't the main release August 25th?). Well it's five days before whatever the release date is. I hope they up it from 6 hours to 10 like they did wth golf. I will be picking it up in August.

Glad I have a One and PS4... still think Sony needs to reconsider!
Looks like Dragon Age Inquisition was added to the vault today.
Ok. EA Access is seriously making me consider getting a One over a PS4 when I finally upgrade.
In all honesty I love both systems. I was hard on the One when it was first announced but I love the system now to the point that I use it more that PS4. PS4 is all about game while XOBX One is all about entertainment. I passed on the xbox camera but I don't miss it.Quote:

Or, Sony can just piss off. I'm doubting EA has any control over when their games are put on PS Now. With EA Access, they have complete control over when to add games to the vault. Just because Sony wants to have a monopoly with PS Now, well, tough shit.Quote:

Yeah, I'll stick with Access on my One. Thanks to having both consoles, in this case, I can have my cake AND eat it too.
Sony didn't want EA Access, it wasn't the other way around.
MS and Ea, a pair of companies that don't get my money any more. Glad some of you still enjoy their products. Far as axxess, Sony could/should have let the consumer market dictate the success of ea's product. Just because I choose no, does not mean I want to choose for anyone else.
You REALLY think Sony would refuse to let EA put its games on PS Now? If so, I have some ocean front property to sell you here in Oklahoma.Quote:

Your are also 100% DEAD WRONG about what PS Now is. PS Now is Sony's attempt to create a "Netflix for games". If you subscribe you get UNLIMITED access to all the games in their subscription service (100+ at this time with approx 5 new games added per month). Alternatively, you can rent a title for X number of days.
You are correct Sony didn't want EVERY publisher to create their own PS Now - they want to unify it and create a subsciption model so their consumers can play ALL GAMES in one place. IF they had let EA create Access Ubisoft would have wanted their own, etc... it would have defeated the entire concept of PS Now.Quote:

CLW, I know a LOT of people who game, and you're the ONLY one who uses PS Now.
That may be true - the rollout wasn't great (no subscription model at 1st) - however it works great for me and I really enjoy the $15/month I pay for unlimited access to a TON of really good games (and some easy :plat:)Quote:

3) Even if Ubisoft and Activision and whomever would've wanted their own service, let 'em have it. People will decide if it's a good deal or not. I personally wouldn't even consider either of their services as only Ubisoft has a franchise that interests me (Assassin's Creed).
I'm with CLW on this one. The Sony model is about "Big Government" holding down individuality and free trade. To hell with Capitalism, Sony knows what's best for me. I need Sony. The bigger and more powerful Sony is, the fewer decisions I have to make for myself.
I applaud CLW for embracing a clearly Dem model.

Plus download or stream... I choose download as there are way less issues. I don't begrudge anyone for using it. I just hate how SONY did not give me a choice of EA ACCESS while MICROSOFT did. SONY blew it!
I have ZERO interest in PS Now. I have definite interest in EA Access and that's only as a $5 a month for the particular month I want like Madden and NBA Live. Don't care about anything else. And if EA went over to MS exclusively I would own my first ever XBox.
On the topic of Access, anyone else looking forward to diving into Dragon Age now that it's in the vault? I've heard a ton about that game, but just never was sure enough about it to buy it as I've never played any of the Dragon Age games.
Once my external hard drive arrives (which is now listed as sold out... great pre-order best buy... :( then I will be picking up Access and that is my first DL.Quote:

I'm a huge Bioware fan (because I'm obsessed with the Mass Effect series) so I'd be all over it if I had a One.Quote:

IF you don't like it - don't buy Sony's product - however consumers world wide have spoken and they CLEARLY prefer PS4 over XB1
