EA Access
EA Access is a subscription that honestly provides a pretty good deal to fans of the publisher’s games. The first part of the deal is the Vault. This allows you unlimited access to a list of past titles and is constantly updated. All you need is an active subscription and you can download a game and play as much as you want. The best part is that they aren’t necessarily really old titles, like you tend to get from Games With Gold. So far the previous year’s games have been added in with updates, and some even join the Vault before 12 months has passed.
On top of the vault, you get early access and discounts to upcoming games. The amount of early access you get varies from game to game, but you can try out blockbuster releases a week before they come out. You can then keep your save files just in case you decide to pick up the game when it releases. If you do decide to go for the purchase, you get a 10% discount for being a subscriber. Not bad when you think of what EA has to offer: Mass Effect, FIFA, Madden, Star Wars, Plants vs Zombies, and much more.
