Yeah honestly this should mean that some Sony fans would understand why we like EA Access. Yet its hated by most here.

TLOU:R is a cash grab that works but it seems like guys make more defense threads about it than the haters do offense ones. It gets annoying.

You do realise that remasters have been coming to the 360 and PS3 for a long time now. And now they are coming to the X1 and PS4. It's not really about MS vrs Sony fanboys. Please don't make it into that.

There is a hell of a lote more hate for EA Access.

Equally, people's primary argument against the products are fundamentally different.

One is about value (TLOU:D being expensive, originally full price), the other is about access (the idea that EA is unlikely to continue adding new titles to the vault, or may start removing them). Not a relevant comparison at all.

And if you insist on making it, it won end well. TLOU is fantastic. It also cost nearly double a year of EA Access...


Price isn't an issue here. If you want to compare EA Access with price then compare Apples with Apples. Compare EA Access with Game with Gold and PS Plus. That's it's direct competition.

With that logic you can say that any new game released is higher than an EA Access sub. What's the point?

The point I'm making is how can one be slated but the other defended by saying it gives gamers choice.

Multiple "older" games for nearly half the price of a year old port?

How is this even remotely comparable?

My post has nothing to with MS fans vs Sony fans. It has to do with the people who constantly say TLOUR is bashed when they themselves are the ones bringing up the topic. 

I know that remasters have come to 360 and PS3. That doesn't stop TLOUR from being a cash grab. I honestly dont care that it is because I would have bought it myself if I had a PS4. Stop making it sound like the game is being demolished in the forums when its not.

EA access is garbage pay 30 bucks a year to play dated sports game and have access to demos early. lol
gwg and ps+ have better value by a mile

Well then as others have pointed out, on VGC there is no equating them. EA Access has copped far more flak on these forums than TLOU:R. Maybe try a different forum, where perhaps the balance is different?

I don't know.

A lot of people don't like EA Access because it's exclusive to Xbox. A lot of people don't like The Last of Us because it's exclusive to PS4. People who bash something purely because it's not on their console of choice are beyond reason or logic.

Note: I'm not saying everybody who bashes TLOU or EA Access is a fanboy.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

1-EA is more hated than TLoU:R

2-Part of the "feeling of hate" comes from too many defensive TLoU:R topics being created.

3-There is indeed some hate, some from people that can't play the game.

4-There is a real reason for some hate, since between I:SS and Drive Club, there is only one big game, that many of this early adopters already played. This hate is not against TLoU:R, but against SONY. Some of that is reflecting over the game though.
