Once again sony users get screwed. I mean content is one thing, but letting one consol play the full game five days early and not the other???? I know I'm gonna sound like a five year old here, but it seems a little unfair if you ask me.

Are you serious with this comment? Sony users getting screwed? Lets see, you have the Last of us remastered that just came out, you have tons of free to play games, your subscription based service nets you what? 4 or 5 decent games a month, you have a more powerful system, a company that makes you feel like your money is being well spent. So yeah you Sony guys sure are getting screwed pretty good compared to us Microsoft guys. Get real and quit whining about the XB1 getting something compelling for sports gamers. Oh yeah and you get the Show all to yourself too, but man does Sony screw you guys.

"The Vault is an evolving selection of EA's Xbox One games that EA Access members can download and play while an active member. During the beta, gamers will have unlimited access to four great EA games: Madden NFL 25, FIFA 14, Peggle 2 and Battlefield 4, with more titles being added soon."

Wonder how the access will change once it is up and running. Access to those games for 2.50 a month would be ridiculous. Just curious about what will be in the vault and if there will be additional charges. Already sold on the rest of it

Regarding the limited time:

EA Access @EAAccess 26m
@TheRockLobst3r The amount of time you'll have with each free trial with change with each game. More info when new releases get nearer.

Sounds like sports games will have pretty open access then. Not saying they will but it's much different than games with story/story arc. So I'm going to hope for pretty open access to sports game.

I'm all in for this. I had the old EA Early Access for the PS3 and 360.

Play them early on X1 and purchase on PS4.

Andrew Reiner @Andrew_Reiner

"...trials of new EA games up to five days before the release date..." Does this mean full games or demos?

Geoff Keighley @geoffkeighley

@Andrew_Reiner I believe you get the full game 5 days early but then lose access on launch day.

That's correct, these trials are the final version of the game, and progress carries over if you choose to buy.

"In some titles you’ll be able to play one of the game's modes for a limited time, while other times you can jump right into the full game," a recently posted FAQ document reads. "And since you’ll always be playing the real game, any progress you make will carry over so you can pick up where you left off on launch day.


looks like single players like dragon age will have the limit on it,makes sense to me.

Day one buy for me

So basically no one knows the deal yet...

It sucks for those who only own a PS4. It's like throwing money away if you ask me. People with PS4's would buy this, why cut yourself off from that income source.

I agree. If it was 5 days full access of games, I would be all over it if it was for PS4. Disapointing it's Juan only, but oh well...

i will probably buy this for the month of august to play madden/fifa 14 until september when Destiny, COD, and Halo come out.

i was already thinking about picking up an old (aka cheap) sports game to play in the mean time anyway.

You'll never have less than 2 hours, but each trial is different & will often be longer.

Re: EA Access for Xbox One: Play EA Games Up to Five Days Before the Release Date

so you can just pay 4.99 for the month of Aug. and play madden early for the 5 days.

so $1 a day for Madden early??? I'll take it!

hell yea bud im all over that!

Holy overreaction thread. My thoughts would be.

Sports Games most likely unlimited access. An RPG like Dragon Age will likely be timed because some person could finish the game in a week and not buy it. Battlefield who knows, most SP campaigns can be done in 6 hours.

I think if all you care about are EA Sports games you probably have nothing to worry about.

Glad I got an Xbox 1. I will be spending 30 on this as soon as I can. I understand why PS4 owners would be a lttle frustraited but, both consoles try and get deals like this to add value that the other doesn't have. If everything was the same for both why have both? I will be streaming Madden 15 on twitch for those that can't play early. That's not meant to be snarky. I'm just letting it be known.

Any chance the Madden for the 360 will come out early?

No indication of this anywhere.

Hopefully we could get good reviews from OS users that have XB 1. Since EA has been really hush about CFM and other features this could help me decide if I want Madden.
