Is this for real... 

Dude it's Peggle 2, Madden and like 7 other games for $30 a year. Seriously one of the best values. I mean if you don't play EA games then it's obviously not for you. 

$30×how long this generation continues, since you constantly need to be a member to play any EA Access downloaded games. Peggle 2 was $12 and Fifa 15 was $60 ( From Amazon it's $45 new ATM. Therefore for the two game you want you'll only pay $57 which by just using EA Access for two years would cost you $60. Does it seem like a good deal now, especially since you still need to pay more than those two years so as not to lose those games. Sure you can probably come out with the argument " I like more than those two games from what is available I'm EA Access" but are you really a fan of all of those games, are you really a fan of all of those sports games that you can't live without buying those games ( or buying them when they're at a much cheaper price, like bargain bin prices ). You can bring up the case that hardcore sport gamers will save a lot of money and then I'll bring up the rebuttal "Hardcore sport gamers would have already bought and played to death all of those sports games before they come out on the vault more than 6 months later"

It's established that if you do not like sports games, this service isn't for you. Most of what EA does are sports games, that's a fact. 

What I don't understand is why you choose to only use two examples in Peggle 2 and FIFA 15, Mymuro and I have stated there are more games that are presently in the vault. I could argue and agree, that it wasn't worth the price in the beginning, but the library has grown pretty healthy since then. Next game will most likely be DA I. 

Again if you were to calculate over let's say a two year period of what's in their now in its depreciated state even, that it would be more than $60, the cost of two years of EA Access. You also need to consider the 10% discount on digital new games and reduced DLC. 

Lets sum this up. Is EA Access for everyone? Absolutely not. It's for those who enjoy EA games and don't buy a lot of new games a year. Am I really a fan of these games. Some yes, some no. I've put over 300 hours in NHL 15, which I got for $50. What I'm saying is, people find value in different things. What's good for some, is not compatible with others.
