Forums - Gaming - EA/Origin Access is an excellent option and offers fantastic value to gamers.

$5 for a month or $30 for a year ($2.50 a month) gets you access to all the vault games, a 10% discount on all purchases and early access with a 10 hour trial to virtually all EA published titles.  

I just signed up for a month on my PC for $5, played Mass Effect Andromeda for 10 hours and now if I want to buy it I get $6 off (which pays for the month signed up for) and if not I saved myself $55 by not buying the game without trying it.  

I feel like for a lot of people the 10 hour trial will be all they need and for $5 they get their whole ME:A experience.

There is literally no reason to not sign up for a month if you're interested in ME:A...  If you like the 10 hour free trial and want the game, you'll get $6 off which pays for the months subscription and if you don't end up liking it, you didn't waste another $55 on a game you're stuck with.

This of course is assuming you plan on buying the game digitally and are fortunate enough to have the option of trying Access.

I hope more publishers do things like this in the future as it's a win-win for gamers.

Not owning either an Xbox or Windows PC is a pretty significant reason for me not to haha

Too bad I have lost interest in ME:A lol

It does sound like a pretty good deal for those who like a lot of EA releases. About the only EA series I'm interested in is Dragon Age, though.

It's also a clever way to push people toward buying the game on Day One.

i just bought a year's subscription today

played some PvZ:GW2 and Peggle 2 so far. Looking forward to playing Hardline, Battlefront, Unravel and Need for Speed Rivals. Hopefully they will add a few more this year. Not sure it is something I would keep though. Seems like a service I would buy once every 3 or 4 years for 12 months to play all the stuff I missed

Nah.Imagine if every single publisher did that?You would end up paying like(putting PS Plus in this) 30 dollars every month, plus the games.

No system like this is ever worth paying, in my opinion.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Na. I'll just buy me:a like a blind fanboy fool. It's good idea though.

Yeah...Why make this thread again?



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

"$30 a year (that's $2.50 a month) for access to over 35 EA games including Star Wars: Battlefront and Mirrors Edge: Catalyst. "

"$5 for a month or $30 for a year ($2.50 a month) gets you access to all the vault games, a 10% discount on all purchases and early access with a 10 hour trial to virtually all EA published titles. "

He works for EA!!! That or this is the evolution of the automated spam bot!

 

I'm still buying ME:A day one.

I'm not huge on EA releases, aside from ME, so it's not ideal for me.
