Yep, the service didn't get good reviews here: http://www.highdefdigest.com/news/show/games/ea-access/Battlefield_4/madden-25/fifa-14/peggle-2/EA/Xbox_One/details/cost/vault/vault-games/ea-access-launch-review-the-what-how-and-why/17243

Jim Sterling of the Escapist Mag echoed Sony's sentiment about EA Access, so Sony is far from alone: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/jimquisition/9636-EA-Access-is-Going-to-Harm-The-Game-Industry

Also, EA done goofed up with NHL 15. Absolutely inexcusable: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/nhl-15-on-xbox-one-ps4-missing-even-more-content-t/1100-6422141/

I realy hope this does bad. And please,to the xbox one fans who think this is a one up on sony. Please dont buy into this. This will be the end of gaming as we know it. We have to kill it with fire before it breeds, since activision already expresed their intentions and want something similar. You might see this as something sony does not offer, but its going to bite you and everyone else in the ass.

Exactly. While people can debate whether Sony was being arrogant or not when they said they didn't see the value in EA Access, they're missing the actual point. Success of this service can possibly lead to a horrible trend that is not consumer friendly. Also, this is EA, a company that won two consecutive Golden Poo awards and nearly earned a third. We all saw what happened with Sims and Battlefield 4, and now EA messed up on NHL 15, too. As Jim Sterling said, don't put your faith in EA.
