    They said weeks ago it would be added, I'm guessing you never heard?

    I heard, I bought it months ago when it was on sale.

    The missus bought me Rory McIlroy PGA Tour after my 10 hour timed demo timed out on pause, I was playing it and she landed home, paused it, forgot about it.

    So she went and bought it, I didn't have the heart to tell her it would be free in a few months.

    I'll buy Battlefront, but no other EA game ever as long as I have EA Access.

    Could have been worse, you could have paid full whack for a 10 hour game which DA:I isn't certainly not :)

    Double negative.
    Now I don't know if its 10 hrs or more!

    Anyone know a way I can get this to start downloading remotely? :)

    If you have your XB1 set to 'Instant On' power mode with background downloads enabled then in theory it should start downloading if you purchase it via Smartglass.

    That's the thing though, I can't purchase it, I can only play it.

    You might still have it downloaded if you got it for the trial, this would explain why smartglass only gives you the option to play it.

    That's yet another thing, I never downloaded the trial for it :pac:

    I'd say there's something weird going on with my MS profile.
    I clicked into the new Rare Replay game and it says "Play on Xbox One", like I own it, but I haven't bought it :)

    Just tried [Protoype] there too and the same thing.

    Looking like any items that are included in a bundle, but aren't the bundle itself, the app seems to assume I own them.

    So you guys see something like Purchase for FREE or along those lines?

    Just checked on Smartglass, it comes up with Play for me too, weird. When you click play, it brings you to the store page on the actual xbox.

    Xbox.com doesn't seem to be any good either.

    I'm in work and can't see any apps in my smartglass on my phone. Am I doing something wrong?

    Must be the way it's designed then.
    It's awful :D

    You can't actually see your apps as far as I'm aware, only the few recently used ones that would show up on your home screen in xbox :)

    Have put a good 70+ hours into DA:I over the last few weeks. Thought it was amazing value at the sale price. Is phenomenal value for £20 with the other games too....

    EA are currently looking into adding 360 titles with backward compatibility to EA Access.

    That could be a pretty big back catalogue.

    Sounds cool!

    Unless it's a sport you're into the tutorials are a right pain in the hoop. UFC was tough going.

    Sweet, not something that I pan to buy at full price, but I reckon I'll buy it somewhere along the way, before it goes free.

    I like Madden games usually :D
