EA play is becoming part of GPUDamn, really good prices. Tempted to go for the Series S as an upgrade from my One S and then go for this hacky method thats doing the rounds to get 3 years of Live and the Pass for 70odd quid. Although looking at the Pass there isn't really any games I would play (I only play Fifa and Call of Duty)

Fifa 21 won't be in EA Play though will it, i thought it was just older titles?

Will the monthly option become available for pre-order? Or will they only give that option to those buying the console outright?

.. still waiting for DF to get their grubby little mits on the SS and SX 
Not yet, but it will eventually appear.
Yeah I am one of the guys who gets it on release usually. I think ill just get the Series S out right and buy Fifa and the new CoD. I am going to need to get Live anyway so I will go for the hacky method of 3 x 12mth Live and then add the GPU for an extra quid. Maybe I will want to play through Halo or something in the future.

Fifa has always been on the PC version (Play, Play Pro, Origin Access, EA Access whatever you call it). At least I have played 19 and 20 with my subscription, the day its released.
They give a 10 hour trail, no version of FIFA has been on ea standard sub on day one

I really like the idea of the Series S, the only real difference it seems will be the resolution @ 1440p vs 4k, and that really won't be a big difference at normal viewing distances, all that extra TF on the Series X is going into pushing 4k.

You could buy an S and (probably) a PS5 for less than the price of a 3080, I have to say I'm tempted to get both now.

The version of EA play going onto game pass is the basic version, I believe there is also a EA play Pro sub.
Still pretty nice to have it added to GP though.

ah I see, very interesting. Not bad for £250 then
Not seen it mentioned here yet but Dolby Vision is coming for games on the S/X.

Interesting. Disney+ uses Dolby Vision at 4k and it looks fantastic. I watched Avatar through it last week and it blew me away. I never thought I'd be able to stream something at that quality, ever. D Vision really makes it pop. More so than HDR.
