Good Games on EA (lol)

Wing-Man · 22 Jan 2023 at 11:58

i have EA Play and i was just about to cancel it as i dont use it but first i thought i would ask is there any good not online games on EA

not online games like Battlefield but just games that need to be played.
is there anything i should have plaid by now in my life, or should i just kill the subscription

Genuinely on the EA site all i have played is Battlefield's

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and Star Wars Squadrons are worth a play.

I started playing star wars squadron single player. Did the first few missions and thought this is pretty decent. Not it just crashes when it's loading :/

It's definitely worth a go. It was free on epic games before Christmas. I've tried downloading again and always crashes in the same place. Shame really

Yeah it is, Was fine for the first few missions so. Might give the multi player side of it a go.

Its an older game but I enjoyed The Saboteur when I played it on Xbox 360, maybe doesn't hold up as well these days? I'm sure I saw it on EA Play when I last looked.

Weird one. I haven't played it for about a year but didn't have any crashes.

I have had crashes with fifa though that required an uninstall and reinstall of ea anti cheat.

The Saboteur was a good fun game. The art style is a good choice as well, mostly black and white until it's cleared.

Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and Squadrons are pretty good.
Mass Effect Trilogy (Andromeda doesn't exist)
Crysis trilogy

I quire enjoyed andromeda, I thought squadrons was very good, and iirc between missions was very xwing vs tie fighter like (or whichever one did it first). Dead space trilogy is worth a play, think dragons age is on there too.

You might find mass effect remastered on there? It has all three games, updated for new UI, widescreen support etc.

Try increasing the FOV slider? Works for some in FPS games?

There are loads of good games on EA Play.

As mentioned Saboteur is a nice under the radar number, my mini-review is here: https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/the-saboteur.18085292/post-23436478
Dragon Age series
Mass Effect series
It Takes Two (really good story driven coop puzzle/platform game)
EA Sports titles (FIFA / NHL / Madden)
Battlefield series (single player)
NFS series (be careful though some of the newer ones are pretty shocking)
Crysis series
Grid Legends is probably good if it's anything like the earlier games in the series

absolutely...... If you can its worth trying Squadrons in VR . Who as a kid didnt dream of flying an X wing? and this is as close as you can get.

EA get a lot of negativity, and deservedly so but there are so many great games published by them - most linked in this thread.
