Considering it costs about 70 dollars for 5 games with Directv that would be a heck of a deal.

That would be all fine and dandy if EA didn't handicap the people who don't buy into their scheming ways.

Fight Night, ruined because of boosts.
NHL online club, almost the same.

And now that everything will be at a discount for these EA fanboys it'll just make it worse. Sad to say it but I guess I'll be done with video games in a matter of years. The spending just isn't justified nowadays especially with all of the frustration involved in playing video games today.

Come on, man

The demo is from a build of the game that came out around E3. The full version of the game allows you to play online, franchise, create a playbook, etc. That is why you pay $25. And that is only counting Madden, the 4 other games as well are the same thing. But like I said, if you are fine with the demo then just don't buy it.

I'm not going to say this is good deal or bad. It just depends on the person I guess. But to me this is not a deal I'm going to mess with. Since I really only play Madden from EA. I wheather just put my 25$ towards the Faulk limited madden12 instead of buying this to get access to Madden12 3 days early. Wheather just enjoy the demo until release date. So no thanks to this deal EA.

25 dollars to get a game 3 days early and then have to pay full retail price for it lol, nope no thank you. 3 days is not that long of a wait to get a game and i'll be damned if i throw down 25 extra dollars just for a 3 day trial. Like I said 3 days to wait for it to hit the stores is not that long.

Haha I love how you justify it by how much it costs a day. EA brainwashed you youngsters pretty well huh? What a joke.

I'm fine with it if it is a take it or leave it feature but mark my words, EA will start to not release demos until game day, and mark up price of the DLC and/or make it more necessary to have in the game, etc. etc.

It all starts somewhere folks, as if EA wasn't getting enough money they don't earn.

If you guys feel like 2 bucks a month is too much for a feature like this then you probably shouldn't be spending 60 bucks on EA games. In my opinion the only question is if the value is there or not, but the price is pretty dang cheap.

Apologize, I shouldn't have used that term. I was speaking about people paying EA extra to play a game 3 days early, when they're already sure they'll purchase the full game anyway.

Just to clarify, I wasn't shooting down the plan - I've been on the early game hunt myself several times, and likely would've purchased this in the past. Hell, it would've likely saved me money.
