    So how long before all EA games require this service to play their games online?

    Why would they?

    Because hosting multiplayer infrastructure is expensive?

    There is an option "Use a code" like when you apply MS Credit or DLC. What is that for?

    Probably for when/if you get gifted a month free, to put the code in.

    Thinking of getting this loads of games for £20 a year few questions

    How often do they add new games?

    Do older games ever get removed from the service?

    I'd hate to be halfway through a game only for it to be taken away

    I almost subbed to this to get Plants Vs Zombies and Peggle 2. (Not interested in any of the other games) Glad I waited. I've now got both those games on PS4 for the grand total of £3.59. :cool:

    Do older games ever get removed from the service? They haven't yet, and I doubt they would remove them

    It will very interesting to see how this develops over this year.

    The pricing model of £20 for 12 months is good value, but it how the library evolves over time will be how I'll decide if to take it to a 2nd year.

    The games so far are great but I do wonder when we might see games like Fifa 15 added, maybe towards the end of the summer as Fifa 16 approaches like last year.

    Suspect Titanfall will drop in there soon.

    Downloading nba 15 now, cant believe they are giving us 15 and not launch nba 14. This is the good, I cant believe it.

    NBA 15
    UFC
    Plants v zombies
    Peggle 2
    Battlefield 4
    Fifa 14
    Madden 25
    Need for speed rivals

    Not bad for £20 a year rental:) What do you think will be the next game. Probably have to be dragons age or fifa 15? Probably have to wait till june for the next one?

    Fifa 15 will be free very soon i should imagine. They make a fortune from in game purchases (Ultimate team) so i don't think they'd mind knocking out for free.

    EA Access continues to be a fantastic service. I'll definitely be renewing my sub once my one year runs out.

    As good as ea access is, I wont want to be playing any of the above games when my sub finishes, or will I want to play the following years sports titles with updated squads/rosters. For me it is the sort of thing I would have every 2 years. It is fantastic value for anyone new to xbox one and wants a good selection of games on the cheap.

    I wont be buying the new battlefield hard lline, might renew sub when it enters the vault in a years time:)

    I would have thought NFL 15 will be added soon. Especially as the season has been finished nearly a month

    How long do you reckon it will be until the PGA Tour game goes in? I know it's not out yet but was just wondering.
