I just think that's such a low number. With the weekend coming up I could easily burn 6 hours in one day messing with Madden. Not to say I typically will walk away from my console to do things around the house then come back to pick up where I left off.

My suggestion is people should go to the EA Access twitter and make their voice heard. Enough threats of cancelled subscriptions may force them to reconsider the 6 hrs.

highly doubt they will reconsider but worth the try at least. tweeting them right now

Terrible execution by EA. Completely disrespectful to the fans, and subscribers. They should've said this day one, now they've "stolen" money from users that expected to get their favorite new titles, unlimited, that paid a premium of $30! That's half of an entire Madden copy itself lol.

Snakes. EA and Microsoft look like a bunch of crooks right now, I waited, but I'm fully offended. I was planning on having Madden Thursday, my day off, and now I'll have to wait that extra 5 days. Its not detrimental, but it is a pretty big let down, by companies that make Millions if not Billions of dollars.

Mom and Pop Shops and other places that sell Madden early just got a big boost in traffic, well once this gets around.

A demo has far more value as a Free, Unlimited In-Game Game-Play trial, than a trial for 6 hours for $30. . . offensive.

This post is so biased that it's not even funny, and honestly, I don't even want to waste my time by responding to it, but let me just say, the fact that you are claiming that the a service that is just 30 bucks, and gives you discounts, free games and a 6 hour trial of a video game you can't get until late this week, or early next week the earliest, is "offensive".

You act like 30 is all you have to your name and that EA is magically doing wrong by the consumer for giving them all that value, for half of what you will fork over to them for madden.

This is just a flat out childish view on what they are doing. I'm embarrassed I even responded to this comment, but I couldn't help myself.

Also, they never suggested you would have unlimited access, unless your definition of "trial" is a loose one.

Complain about them all you want, but myself and EA are laughing at you because your just going to them wallet in hand for their product anyway.

Reality check, those same people that will threaten would of probably cancelled after a month anyway.

Exactly also they may reconsider it for other sports games.

I just feel for the guys who brought this strictly for madden. Planning to play it all weekend. Those are the guys I know are disappointed. Most of those who like FIFA or battlefield got the game already. I only waited because I was planning to get the game early. Glad I did now.

Not great for the consumer who was looking forward to playing Madden early. Most people will probably cancel and then you'll lose your vault games.

EA should of been up front right from the beginning. And to think I went crazy to get into the xbox preview.

Thats an assumption based on nothing. So you are assuming that most Madden fans only like one sport? They have no interest in Hockey, Soccer or Basketball? Or they dont like non sports games by EA?

Re: EA Access Gives You Just Six Hours Of Madden NFL 15 Gameplay

Yet another reason to not think highly of EA.

You know, I read this, and I dont like it, but I agree with it. My point.. FIFA is an EA Sports product, and is a perennial masterpiece. So there are some parts of EA that tries. BUT for the most part (a BIG part of THAT), being Madden, just wants Money, and they dont care. Yes, with 15 here, it shows they're getting better. But their still mostly $ driven, not fan driven. I mean, come on; they tout MUT so much and make that look SO GOOD, (even if it is); because of all the micro transactions, and Money it makes EA.

You feel bad for someone who was going to pay 30 bucks to get access to a game 5 days earlier? Lol.

Re: EA Access Gives You Just Six Hours Of Madden NFL 15 Gameplay

Ouch.

Unlike most of you, i solely purchased EA access for the Madden early release. Heck, i likely won't even use my 6 hours, but man, this is a bit of BS. Even going in knowing some games would have limited access, i wouldn't have thought it would be a sports game, given what Season Ticket offered.

I guess it's better than nothing, but being new to Madden after having NCAA ripped away from us, i was planning on jumping in with both feet this weekend with my CFM and not looking back. Now it appears we merely have a blip to experiment with.

Like posted, time for the troops to light twitter up.

Done. Is there anyone else we can get to perhaps at Microsoft?

That's even worse. Feeling bad because someone didn't get unlimited access for $5

Ive bought ice coffee for more than that and finished it in 5 minutes

Re: EA Access Gives You Just Six Hours Of Madden NFL 15 Gameplay

As someone who purchased the EA Access it is technically a fair deal the MAJOR error is how they failed to mention up front that you'd only be able to play Madden 15 for 6 hours. That would have changed people's perspective on it and they knew this. That is exactly why they waited about two weeks to even mention it was only a 6 hour deal. It only cost me $5 to play FIFA so it was well worth it but the way they went about it was terribly unprofessional/bad business. Think they ever heard of the Better Business Bureau?
