Someone said $5 for 4 games for 1 month vs $5 for 1 game for 4 hours. I think EA wins that battle.

What battle?

Did you not see the "vs"?

Why is it even a battle in the first place? Does everything have to be a console war?



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

You sound very bitter right now.

1. Plenty of people still play older sports games when the new one comes out.

2. You have to be stupid to actually pay $60 for Live with all the deals throughout the year. 

3. It doesn't say anywhere that you need Live. And you can play these games single player with no problem. 


Why do I sound bitter? I wont subscribe to it and it wont hurt anyone.

Im just trying to understand how this is a great deal for the average gamer.

So MS will just let EA get the money from their online service...? Doubt it.

You might want to define that ambiguous term first before you use it in an argument.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

You seem to be trying your very hardest to make this sound like its a bad deal and i find that very cute :3

PS - Sports Games Sell multi-millions every year ;)  Not to mention Mass Effect, Battlefield, Medal of Honor, Plants vs Zombies, Sims, TitanFall, Battlefront, Need for Speed, Rockband, Mirror's Edge, and so many more great games under EA.  All of which are big games.

Now if you dont like EA games then it just isnt for you but im not getting why your trying so hard to make something look bad when it really isnt.  Especially since the mass market eats up these games, yes specially sports games

I did. Madden does well in the us, but not everywhere else and Fifa does well in europe, but not everywhere else. Games like Mario, Halo, Uncharted etc... does well in many places.

This is a really awesome service but I'd like to wait a bit longer to get more info.
I wonder if/when the PS4 will get this type of service?

Doesnt need to be every year.  They have a few big hits EVERY year from different franchises

EA releases multiple huge games a year that aren't sports titles...Yes every single year.

 

And with this membership you also get 10% off of DLC's for EA titles. Millions of gamers download Battlefield map packs / Sims Expansions / Titanfall Maps / Mass Effect DLC's every year.

 

Again if you are a fan of EA games, which there are millions of EA fans as is evident from their software sales, this is a fantastic deal.

This looks way better than Playstation Now, but I don't think Xbox has a service as good as PS+ just yet.
