    Is it bad that I'm tempted by some of these despite having EA Access?

    Finally gonna get the ME3 dlc

    I really want to get Dragon Age but it looks like a tough ass completion.

    On another note I recomend Never Alone, really cute, short, fun game as well as an easy 1000gs.

    Geez, Chewie. The work you put into these! Appreciated as always.

    xPut Name Herex said:Is it bad that I'm tempted by some of these despite having EA Access?Not really. I've got it as well, and I'm looking at Battlefield and Garden Warfare as pretty much the only things I have interest in. The combined cost for those is cheaper than Vault access for me, and now that a Best Buy sale has rendered their discount obsolete for me, it might just be better to secure the games I want and let it expire.

    Outside of that, I think I'll pick up Dragon Age: Origins, Awakening, and 2, followed by Kingdoms of Amalur. I'm eyeing up Tony Hawk HD, but I remember trying the demo and it being nothing like what I remember.

    Anyone have kind words about Fuse? Looking into it, seems half decent for the price.

    Dead Space for only $3 is one of the biggest steals I've seen recently. Amazing game. I would recommend picking it up before this sale is over.

    I know that people don't like DAII all that much but for $4, would it be worth the pick up?

    The first good deal of the new year. There's something for everybody in this sale it seems like, nothing for me though. Well done all the same EA

    xPut Name Herex said:Is it bad that I'm tempted by some of these despite having EA Access?EA access is the reason for all these discounts. EA finally figured out how to destroy the used game market, in addition to making their games incompletable by turning off the servers, now they milk everything 6 months old by tossing it in the vault, and dropping the digital prices. I have literally stopped buying used EA stuff on the One, and the 360 prices have to be damn low for me to even consider a physical copy now shock

    There's a lot there for me to choose from, including Fuse, the Dragon Age games, and Mirror's Edge. Can anybody offer their opinions on those games for me, before I make any decisions?

    Also, I refuse to get Syndicate unless there are willing boosters for those pesky online achievements... roll

    What a great sale, but alas, I just bought Another world, and never alone just a few days ago. Oh well, they were cheap anyways. Gotta stock up for more back log!!
  • Posted on 27 January 15 at 17:59
    I think i'll pick up Dragon Age: Inquisition on the One. I was considering it a few days ago and now this sale made it so very tempting.
  • Posted on 27 January 15 at 18:01
    i considered crisis 2, but then i saw the walkthrough and it shows the time to complete it is from 60 up to 4032hrs... wtf
  • Posted on 27 January 15 at 18:05
    Great sales. I would highly recommend Dragon Age: Inquisition, best RPG in years, this game is nothing short of amazing. Origins is great too as well as the Awakening DLC for it. Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Prototype, Mirror's Edge, Dead Space and Bulletstorm are fun games as well. Mass Effect 3 DLCs may be worth picking up too, despite being the worst instalment in the franchise it's still worth playing... well, kinda.

    Great sales overall, but nothing for me, all the games I like here, I already have.
