    Trade in at Gamestop, use your GS Card if you have it to get the 10% extra credit and buy EA Access or Xbox Credit. Thats what i did with GTA when it was on sale in the Xbox Store

    For anyone else selling FIFA i ended up getting 25.50 for it with a level 3 account in GS but unfortunately they only sell one month's sub of EA Access for €4 so I'll just have to buy the yearly sub online.

    Yes, EA Access really is great value.

    Wonder when Battlefield One will make it to The Vault.

    With DLC's still being released, not for a long time I would imagine.

    I have had Fifa 17 since i bought the Xbox S. Still not played the game.
    To much choice of games. And yes EA Access is great for its price.

    Depends how they look at it. Maybe they can get more EA Access subscribers through having more games on it.

    I would suspect that when sales begin to slump for it that it'll be added

    Not showing in my ready to install games. All that's showing is the demo being ready to install.

    I think you have to go through the EA Access app or the membership panel?

    I signed up to this for a month to try it out. I'm just wondering does it work with game sharing? The wee fella wanted me to get him plants vs zombies and it's €40 but on ea access so it was a no brainier providing he can use it.

    Yes it does, as long as he is playing it on your "home" Xbox One he will have access to it on his account.

    Be home in a few mins. The big question is what to DL first??

    I'm thinking battlefield 4. Maybe some madden. Never played it before but looks fun.

    Battlefield 4 is pretty good for online, I much prefer the story mode/Single Player from Battlefield Hardline but both are pretty good.
    I can never understand Madden, I've tried playing it and readying the rules but I just dont get it :/

    Love Madden, and 17 is really excellent. It's a great way to learn about American Football, and I think it probably helps if you have some knowledge or interest in the game going in.

    I learned everything I know about NFL from the Madden games when I was younger.

    Have always wished I could get more into NFL, but have no clue where I'd even start tbh.

    I always thought it was a kind of a cool game, and so I picked a team to follow and picked up a cheap Madden game 2nd hand for my 360. Playing through it made me appreciate just how tactical it is. Now I'm a HUGE fan. :)

    I love the tacticality of it. My mother hates it :P She always gives out its so stop/start, but thats kind of what I love about it. Like a big game of chess.

    Flick on redzone on Sunday evening when the season starts back up. No adverts, which is key, and it shows you the best action from all the games between 6pm until 3am.

    Really is great entertainment and a nice way to get into the game.

    Yeah, I didn't like NFL until I realised that it's all tactics.

    The main problem with watching it live is the ridiculous amount of ads, which cuts out all the time for analysis of what the teams are doing. I didn't start liking it until I watched a youtube video breaking down a few plays, then I got it. The only thing stopping tv stations from doing that kind of analysis is the push for more ads. It's insane.

    Without pushing this thread too much off topic: best way to enjoy a game of football is the "condensed" version currently available for all rewinds on GamePass. They cut off everything that isn't relevant, and only keep the action, from snap to dead ball. A whole game is about 30 minutes. Particularly useful when you don't care much about the commentators.

    Medal of Honor: Airborne is now available to EA Access subscribers. Search for it in the store to find it.

    My OCD complains when I see "Honor", really hate that misspelling for some reason. It's one of the few differences that annoy me between actual English and American English.

    Is it any good? I haven't played a medal of honour game since Frontline years ago for the ps2. I loved that game but my God it was tough.

    Really happy with alot of the new games over the last few months. As someone who has no interest in non sport games they have really improved their offerings.
