I didn't buy the PS4 version, because I knew it'd come on EA Access. I'm the kind of guy that nomrally buys collectors editions for RPG's.... So much for that theory.


Its the exact same situation as someone saying "I'll buy it when its cheaper used". So it actually helps my theory. Except only in one situation does EA actually get some money from the waiting. EA Access.

No it's not.

I would buy it new, but instead chose to get the most out of a service I pay for.

I still think that Sony shouod have allowed us the choice. People who don't like it wouldn't subscribe and that's it.
Also, the PS+ argument is just silly, because I haven't really noticed a steady monthly stream of AAA by other publishers on that service.
Yes, I'd rather pay $30 to get four sports games and a few shooters that I might play for 5 hours before deleting, than pay $50 for games I will never bother downloading like Stealth Inc or Mousecraft.
Sure, there is a gem like Rocket League that wins the lottery once in 18 months, but isn't it better to have no lottery but a secure 6-9 month delay window (I play games that old or older anyway).


So is EA paying the servers on the ps4 ? they should make their own consonle if they want to benifit from consoles

And? the game cost 20€ used. Not a great deal imo this EA acess


Haven't you already stated you will never think this is a good deal for gamers? Each game they put in there is going to be cheap used. I guess you'll be doing this each time while the content keeps getting better 😁

Yeah, because for 30 bucks you only get this game...

And how is that worse than buying used? You're paying for their service.

In your situation you either give them money or you give them money. Win win for EA.

Because I wouldn't have bought a used game. I would of paid full price for the game at release.

This service from this game alone puts EA at a -$30.

I guess your right $69.99 * .45 (est publisher cut) = $31.5 or a loss of $1.5 dollars from this title alone if we are getting technical.

I like to get the most out of my paid services, buying all the EA games right away is counter productive.



Counter productive? Lol is this your way of trying to make this seem like a horrible service even though you say you're in it? Like a back handed compliment kind of thing

Your attacks on me are becoming more obvious by the day.

All I said is to get the most value out of the service I no longer buy EA games day one. (With few exceptions)

If I bought all the games I wanted day one, I'd get no value out of the service. I am not dissing the service in anyway. Only explaining how I use the service and how the service impacts my buying habits.

Seriously...stop attacking people.
