Forums - Sony - Why do we still not have EA Access on PS4?

Sony claims it's not a good value for us yet they up the price of PS+ by $10 and give us nothing in return. 

You know when price increase for PS Plus was announced i started to see the $49.99 physical cards in all retailers disappear.  But now all the retailers have a huge stock of the $49.99 physical cards everywhere!  So it's like the price increased in the PS Store but it never changed at retailers.

Am I the only one that have seen this?

Sony takes care of their local customers and can see that nobody would have interest in such a service, thus protecting them from bad deals by not giving even the option.

Because nothing has changed? What was said in the first place, is still the reason now. Nothing has changed.

There is a HUGE delay between when the game comes out and when it is added to the vault.

"38 Star Wars Battlefront November 17, 2015 December 13, 2016 [39]"

I actually don't know anyone that has EA access.  It is basically an odd version of BC.

Its better late than never. At least, Xbox subs are getting AAA games instead of indie garbage we are getting on PS4. Sony is arrogant and needs to give players what they need. More Games....on EA Access.

Since most or all multi platform games are selling better on the ps4..... surely it will benefit ea more?



Pocky Lover Boy!

Basically.

What its $30 for a year, or a few bucks for a month.

I just got a One S. Let's say I want to try out some games. This is a good deal. Get to play those games he listed. Could play the whole Mass Effect Trilogy. Could play any sports game I want (the prior years edition, but who really cares imo. Sports games hardly change. I just do a fantasy draft in franchise anyway if I ever play) Dragon Age Inquisition, Titanfall.

Plenty to enjoy for a NEW owner for a few dollars. Or for half the price of ONE game, you get access fora  whole year.

Might be different for you youngens, but working people don't have as many hours to play games. If I were to sign up, I would not even probably get a chance to play them all, let alone finish them.

But again. OPTION. MS players have the option, Sony players do not. Reminds me of people defending Sony for no mod support in games. Like saying how Sony is saving them from shitty mods. Yea, cause obviously you are forced to download them.

I never wanted EA Access until I got a free month with the purchase of my Battlefield Xbox One S. Now, I can't how anyone could possibly say anything bad about it. If there's one single EA game that has your attention, go ahead and subscribe.

Why it's not on PS4? Blast Processing.

Like that?

Well that one shows it on sale "saving $10". But everywhere I go at all the stores I still see tons of this.......

Sony doesn't want it because it would compete against Playstation Plus.
Actually I think EA Access is really pointless on Xbox One too.




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

It's a conflict of interest with PSNow. That's all.

Not really. PS Now is a streaming service where you can rent games for a time or pay a sub for a year to play games, without installing them on numerous devices including now on PC (no hard drive needed). Mainly has PS3 games. PS Now is comparible to Netflix.

EA Access, allows you to download the games and play them as though you own them onto your console. Mainly this gen games. EA Access is comparible to PS+ or Live but those services offer more than just games.



Hmm, pie.
