Looking after the fact that after several months of the debut on X1 it still wasn't offered on Origin or other PC/MAC I can only think they think they think it isn't valuable to their costumer.

 

Or it is quite possible MS had to pay to have it exclusively and Sony didn't cover the offer. Why else would EA block access on their own service?

 

If EA and Sony think it isn't enough value maybe they are right. On PS+ for 50 you get 36 games a year and usually 25% extra discount on several games. On PC with steam you can buy a plethora of games for 50 and big discounts while at unbeatable subscription free price. While you only get 8 games and 10% discount so the only place it could more or less compete and complement is where they gone.

 

What is your opinion on why it is available on X1 and not even on Origin? Or is Sony guilty on Origin lacking it?


Because EA Access is 8th gen exclusive. Origin has 7th gen games included.

Silly me, and here I though PC didn't had generations.

And what prevents then from offering only games made after 2013 there or making EA access not limited by gen? X1 get crossgen and old remakes.

 

Where have EA said they could offer the service only in platforms that run only 8th gen games? And it's their service they can change if they want. And I didn't ask why they don't offer it on x360 (probably because it is being discontinued, although the big fanbase could make it worth even if they only have it for 2 years). So since it's restricted to 8th gen as you say they will dump it when gen 9 comes? This is silly.
