Commissar SFLUFAN Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Electronic Arts said during a financial call yesterday that Origin Access Premier, an upgraded version of its subscription-based Origin Access service that will provide full, unlimited access to EA games, will go live next week. More quietly, it also pulled the plug on Origin's "On the House" program, which provided free games to everyone—including non-Access subscribers—on an intermittent, time-limited basis.

Keyser_Soze Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 They ran out of shitty old games to give away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scape Zero Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Not like we are really missing out on much. Not so much a jab at EA, there just isn't many games they can give away that makes any business sense. Not to mention the free game has been Peggle for like a year now.

AbsolutSurgen Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Given that I don't play Madden, FiFA or Battlefield. I'll just buy Anthem on Origin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosephManderley Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 EA has killed all the franchises that i liked of theirs. I've not bought and EA game in years. They are dead to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I picked up most of the free games they've given away over the years. Not a bad collection, but I never open up Origin. Ubisoft has had better giveaways over the years. Humble too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EA killed them back in like November last year because the studio wouldn't add in all the loot boxes the brass at EA wanted for the Star Wars: Battlefront game. We'll never see another Dead Space game, but after the nonsense that was 3, we weren't going to get a good game anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsolutSurgen Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 EA has made some decent games over the year. Mass Effect: Andromeda was a worthy game to play Mirror's Edge Catalyst was worth a twirl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
