5

Among some titles we’re already aware of, the publisher has a few more surprise reveals that have earned themselves a fair bit of speculation. THQ Nordic is kinda the “spray and pray” of publishers.

EA Access, the company’s subscription service allowing players to download from a vault of EA games has finally launched on the PlayStation 4. Originally an Xbox One exclusive that eventually found its way to PC, EA Access lets players pay a set monthly or annual fee (that’s R48.50 per month, or R299 annually) to download and play many of EA’s games. It’s now available on PlayStation 4 at the same price as it is on other platforms – and it kinda sucks.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll definitely say it again; the Xbox One’s user interface is horrible. It’s especially bad on the original Xbox One, where it’s not just a confusing clutter of boxes and unintuitive menus, but it’s also sluggish and generally unresponsive. Still, it’s a little better than it used to be, but that’s because Microsoft’s redesigned the UI before, and they’re doing it again.
