Still doesn't matter...
Any revenue that EA gets back is still a win...
Used games, nothing goes back to the publisher/developer...
This looks amazing. But FC4 will not make it onto my 2014 games list.
I have 3 slots and 1 of them has been taken already.
1.) Shadow of Morder (PS4)
2.) Halo: MCC (Digital. Once it releases)
3.) Empty (but leaning towards Dragon Age) not sure which console yet.
I will definitely get this in 2015 once the price has come down a bit.
This is the dumbest article in the world...
No idea how business works... EA Access doesn't even remotely cannibalize retail copies of games.
Do you think that last years Fifa/Madden, PvZ:GW, BF4, NFS:Rivals are still selling in droves?
No, those games are sitting in abundance on GameStop shelves being sold as used and EA not getting one cent from it.
At $5 per month or $30 a year, if EA only got 100k-200k people sign up...
Yes and no... We all know that sports games can and will get repetitive, they only record so many lines of dialogue.
But to actually see, some "human" elements in there is great. This actually how it is when you watch the NBA on TNT.
With modern technology you would think that they could just get Ernie and Shaq back in the studio, have them record more dialogue, and patch it back into the game.
Sony would do this after I pre-order Shadow of Mordor...
Go figure.
this comment is a joke right? right?....
I also pre-loaded the game and have it installed. I just can't actually play it until tomorrow.
I believe the game comes in compressed, then expands once game is unlocked.
No one can honestly be shocked by this.
When has Xbox ever been successful in Japan.
Smart move to wait.
With all these mega hits starting to hit store shelves, CastleStorm may get lost in the flux.
Maybe Zen should have waited til January 15' to release it.
Could have had the month to itself. No one will drop new title from 12/26/14 - 1/31/15.
This is the dumbest article in in recent days.
About 70% of the games in the article are Multi-Plats...
smh...People will ride the Xbox hate train for they're 15minutes of fame...
This purchase is BIGGER than Xbone vs PS4...
This is about bundling MineCraft in as many Microsoft products as possible. Minecraft bundled with Desktop, Surface, Phone, Tablets.
As well as consoles
THis is about when OEM's make a device that runs Microsoft's OS, they can brag about Minecraft pre-installed, and picking up where you left off.
What MrPink2013 said...
I agree.
I approve thereapersson's rant
I agree, and I approve this rant.
I would add Alpha Protocol to that list.
And I would also add Advent Rising (OG Xbox) to that list as well .
On paper these games were amazing, in actual gameplay they were atrocious.
Traded in my copy of Rivals last week when I caught wind of it being in the Vault soon.
Got $22 for it.
KABLAMOOOO!!!!!!!
Why is anyone shocked about this?
MS is basically non-existent in Japan.
I registered for both consoles.
Hopefully I get on at least one of them.
If I get in on both, I'll just give away one keys to the other console.
smh.. Netflix on the One was designed around what the One can do. Functionality was top notch. More features that made Netflix a joy to use are now gone.
WOW 65GB!!!... My One is ready...
I'm definitely have to delete some games though so my One can breath.
