Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

I don't see how Ncaa would be included, no ncaa license to enter into a new distribution agreement.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

They need to promote PSNow bro. They would have to create a separate link to EA for users who would want it. Why would you want to add expense to this? Just a thought, why can't EA put those 4 games on PSNow? Not that I care to play old sports game.

To add, why should you pay $ for a demo? Is early access now the new word?

A ten percent savings towards games purchased maybe a door buster for some but, isn't EA the same company who said they didn't want to make a FIFA World Cup for NG because it wasn't worth it? TitanFall won't be included in now or in the future? So, EA picks and chooses what will go in this vault?

I'm finally going to buy Madden this year after a 7 year layoff. Never mind what they did to LIVE and Battlefield, and I'm going to give them extra money?

Wasn't EA one of the strongest advocates for DRM? Is EA a well trusted company?

NO Thank you

You bought that hook, line, and sinker didn't you?


Not giving the gamers a choice is not being "pro gamer". Making our minds up for us is the opposite. I have tried to understand how that EA deal doesn't give you great value for a year, but let's be honest it does. Sony wants to act like they are saving the consumer from big bad EA but I am not buying. Something else went on behind the scenes.

I wish Sony would drop that non-sense. They lost that "for the gamer" banner when I saw the PSnow prices.


Love the PS4 though.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

LOL! The thought did occur, but my little one was in the floor laughing at my bone headed move, so I just dropped my head in shame.

Lol good I was only messing. There are very few things that REALLY bother my nowadays while gaming. And dying over something stupid in Don't Starve is one of them… where you just have to take a deep breath, turn off the console and walk away lol.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

WTF???

I'm playing Left Behind and the console completely turns off. After a minute or two, I turn it back on, it goes into "safe mode" and scans the system files or whatever. It then says that the console was not shut off properly. I didnt do or touch a damn thing.

Has this happened to anyone?

The PS Store and PSNow gives the gamers a choice. It can do everything that EA Access can do. It can give the gamers a choice to rent the games. It can give the gamer a chance to play a demo. It can even give you a 10% discount if you ordered it through the store. So why doesn't EA give us this choice for PS gamers on the PS network?

For a few seconds put your business hat on. Sony spends millions of $ to create a server farm for the purpose to have publishers and distributors put THEIR games on this farm at THEIR prices of choosing for rent or purchase. So Sony is now going to send gamers to a different network when they have a system that's already built? It doesn't make business sense. Would you create a string of hotels only to send them to another?

Hey, Sony is no angel in the business community. But I'll trust them more than I would trust EA. EA can give us everything in PSNow and in the PSStore because guess what? It's already equipped to do so. EA apparently has a different agenda.

Re: PlayStation 4 Discussion

Sorry, I still want the choice to completely **** on EA myself. I don't need Sony taking my **** for me.

EA Access isn't replacing the Xbox One store. It utilizes it. EA wants recurring revenue and something similar to their season pass program.

Sweet! So I can play Madden 5 days early? I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.

Where is your PS4 sitting at ? It could be over heating or it could be a sign your PS4 is dying. Either way, just monitor it over the next week or 2 to see often it turns itself off.

Mines started to turn itself off maybe once every 3 weeks. Then went down to once every week. Which eventually led to the PS4 won't turn on without immediately turning itself off 3 seconds later.

Which is why I am on my second PS4 right now.

It's in the bottom of my TV stand. There's plenty of space and I just put a fan on it now even though it doesnt feel that hot.

I have the two year warranty at gamestop to get a new one. Should I do that or wait to see if that happens again?

I guess PSNow could do everything this does, and if you attached a razor to my channel changer it could shave my face. Not going to happen.

I don't understand your argument and you drink the koolaid too much for me to get into this with you.

I would wait to see how often it happens. Because you have plenty of time with the warranty.

Yep....EA can easily put in a demo for us for FREE to play before the game comes out.

EA Access isn't replacing the Xbox One store. It utilizes it. EA wants recurring revenue and something similar to their season pass program.

And EA will be posting their new games on the store as they usually do. They can easily post old games to rent on PSNow too.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Bought the console on June 6th with a two year warranty so I do have plenty of time. Thanks.

We're talking about a demo. I mean listen, we're sitting here talking about demo, not a full game, not a full game, not a full game, but we're talking about a demo. Not fully featured game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it's my last but we're talking about a demo, man.

*Pro Tip - Full Game > Demo

Sony made the decision for us and screwed the guys who wanted to play EA's games early. End of Story.
