I'm sorry but instead of paying $4.99 for couple of hours, I'll pay $5 for a month of some games that I love to play.
Sports and Battlefield 4 (which I haven't played yet) for % dollars is a no brainer.

Ah the completely pointless comparison to PSNow, I was wondering when it'd come.

How is it pointsless when both of them are based on "leasing" games for a period of time?

I was waiting on the defense also.

Ok, I'm sorry it's not pointless, it's utterly moronic. PSNow and EA Access are entirely different services.

PSNow: Streams a game through servers that Sony has to pay for. You decide which game you want to stream from a selection of, for now, PS3 titles from a range of different publishers, you also decide for how long you want to stream, prices need tweeking. The service basically replaces the console and is set to at some point be available on all devices with a screen.

EA Access: Let's you download EA games that EA chooses to put on the service on your X1,  probably through Microsofts servers, maintaining this is entirely free for EA.

If you really can't see how those services are different and how it's completely irrational to expect similar prices from the two, then you must obviously be trying not to see it.

If you want to compare it to a PS service, then compare it to PS+.
