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

EA Access was available before this information came out, so we didn't know.


I would not have bought it if I had known.

This begs the question, why did you buy something when you didn't know all of the details? It's been shown that EA stated that games would be available for a limited time. You have said that you assumed Madden wouldn't be part of that. Whose fault is that? I don't see why EA is to blame for your own lack of patience.

They made it clear out of the gate that there would be limitations to the time played though so it's nothing we didn't know.



I'm going to leave the discussion at this point though since I have to be up in about 5 hours. Please understand, I get the frustration, I really do.

All I will say is that at some point we as consumers have to accept responsibility for ourselves.

Blaming others is convenient but not always the only way to go. Sometimes we have to look in the mirror.


I really hope it all works out for you. Take care.

I disagree with how clear it was. There was some definite ambiguity in the releases that I read. However that ambiguity is what led me to wait to make a purchase until more facts were known. Glad I waited.

since I didn't read a lot online, I had no idea it would be limited since on the xbox to download it said nothing about limited. It said something about playing all weekend from the couch or whatever. Im only mad that its 6 hours since im off all weekend and will do that in one day. With my friends it takes 6 hours to do a fantasy draft lol. Im eager to see what they say about all the negativity. I only spent 5 dollars just for this game since I already had battlefield fifa and madden 25

I'm curious as to whether anyone has tried calling EA and complaining until you get a refund on your subscription? No idea if it would work, or if it's even worth it, but an idea for those who feel snake-bitten

Buyer be aware if you didn't read up on it or research it, even though they came out and said limited on their website, they were vague about the limited specifics.

You have to go through Microsoft for a refund.

There you go. Even if it's only $5, it's worth making a statement that you didn't appreciate how they conducted their business in this situation.

on the bright side this whole thing has made my desicion of which system to buy Madden for an easy one. I figured id be pretty involved in a franchise on xbox 1 by tuesday and not want to start over so just get it for that. I might as well get it for PS4 which is what I wanted to do in the first place anyways.

Six hours wouldn't be that bad, if the Access members would get the option to buy and play Madden 15 immediately (before the official release date).

It sucks, but I just purchased a month so I'm going to get my 6 hours and be done with the service. It is what it is and no amount of moaning and groaning here in this thread is going to change EA's stance. I understand why. They just need to be up front with their customers instead of being vague in their terms.

At least the 6 hours will give me just enough play time to make the wait until release bearable. With no EA Access or Season ticket, how many here would jump at the chance to play the game for 6 hours several days before release? I'd be all over it. Would probably cost more than $5 in gas to get to where ever the game was being played anyway. Right?

And suddenly I feel like I'm not missing out on much as a PS4 owner.

Yeah, now I understand why Sony said what they said, and did what they did when they did it...

Under a different service with a different name on a different platform. I don't think that people signing up for this saw 'EA' and got out their wallets.

Seriously debating canceling my XboxONE/Madden 15 bundle and getting a PS4, a company with a little integrity. The only thing keeping me from doing it is that my best friend who lives in another state has an XboxONE and has been begging me to get one so I can play with him online, but I may have to disappoint him.
