I don't think its that fishy.

Its in EA's best interest to have a marketing deal with the clear market leader, equally sony will gain a lot from this the same way they did from Destiny.

In regards to EA accesss, its a service people are paying for right? EA's priority should be to deliver to those paying customers. To me it has nothing to do with any marketing deal or future DLC etc.

maybe SONY PR made a mistake? or EA and M allow it?

I'm sure microsoft will market it for them through Xbox only channels like live/twitter lol. I don't see it as a big deal, marketing EA access is second priority to marketing their actual game to the biggest possible audience. 



This is EA, guys: expect no loyalty and pimping out games for top dollar.

Sony should do a deal with EA to at least get EA early access on PS4. Perhaps if you have a PSN+ sub you can get EA Early Access and Sony will throw EA $0.10 for each account that uses early access for a game.

I happen to agree with Sony that the full monty EA Access doesn't represent good value for PS given Sony has PSN+ and PS Now aspirations, EA Access is crowding the PSN market for subscription based game access.

That is an interesting tweet, but It might be nothing more than Sony trying to add to the hype. It does suggest MS doesn't have exclusive marketing rights, because Sony doing something like this would violate an exclusive deal.
