Nope, spot on and that's pretty much my point.

I expected a demo for nhl because of the reasons you mentioned and because this is their first game this gen.

Madden had none of those reasons.


Point being, both games have reasons either to release a demo or not to none of which have anything to so with EA access. If that were the reason for no demo ea would be consistent across the board.
