| CDiablo said: Once I found out that this was first on XBOX my psychic abilities foretold that Sony fans would find a way to convince themselves that this was another evil MS/big business tactic to ultimately rob the customer. Certain people here are so daft. If someone, who is all digital plans on buying 3-4 EA games this year(example Dragon Age+ 2 sports games) thats $18 in savings. Hell you can BUY 1 MONTH($5) and get $6 off a digital game. So at this point you get a free month of EA+ your new game. I dont currently see value in it, but down the road when Dragon Age, Mirrors Edge, Mass Effect, ect are on the service I dont see the harm in getting access for or eve $5 for a few months. But MS is the bad guy. Sony the company who removed backwards compatibility and sold many of those backwards compatible games (remade or not) via PSN. As with most days hypocrisy is running high in the Sony camp. |
You are so correct. Also, good catch on that $5 for $6 savings :)
I cannot believe that people are rallying in support of Sony in this instance. I already said in the other thread, I am sorry I cannot get this deal. It is a great value, if you buy 5 EA games per year you're already breaking even, and then you get free access to their back catalog of games that are good, but you somehow missed.
I think everybody is focused on sports games so much, they forget that EA publishes dozens of other games.
I also need to say for me personally - several years back when I had X360, I have purchased a $20 EA Sports Early Access package, which allowed me to play Madden and FIFA a week early, along with some Ultimate Team cards and discounts. I perceived it as a good value. So $30 per year is infinitely better value for me.
Sadly, Sony doesn't want me to have that choice.
