    As far as I remember, EA have said that the will never remove games from the vault.

    Here is an article on Gamespot about it.

    Will the free 3 month trial stack with paid membership?
    I realised I never used up the free trial and planning on getting 12 months for Christmas

    Could be downloaded anyway, as long as you installed the trial.

    After a bit is downloaded, you can play as Darth Vader, and with a handful of soldiers, dispatch loads and loads of rebels that are attacking the Hoth base. While downloading the rest of the game ;)

    My nephew who is 8, on Saturday through the normal MS store on the Xbox and only went and bought Star Wars Battlefront - €26!!! I was in a different room and only realised when the receipt came through to my phone :eek::o:(
    I just had to laugh - I knew it was due to hit the Access soon enough. Not 3 days later though.

    Did Respawn not say that TF2 will not be going to EA Access?

    Apologies this has prob been posted before and ive checked around but can't seem to get it fixed.

    Signed up to Ea access, but it keeps telling me my account is in active even though my B/A has been debited.

    I have tried logging in and out but no joy.

    Thinking of joining access and have a few questions. I see there are 38 games in the vault and EA have said they won't remove any of these games.
    Once you have signed up to EA access, you can download any/all of these games, correct? What happens to the games on your Xbox if your subscription ends? I presume you cannot play the games anymore? How does it check if your subscription is still active? Does the Xbox have to go online to check your subscription every time you start a game you've downloaded from the vault?

    What happens to the games on your Xbox if your subscription ends? They remain on your xbox, unless you manually remove them

    I presume you cannot play the games anymore? You presume correctly

    How does it check if your subscription is still active? By pinging your account on the EA servers

    Does the Xbox have to go online to check your subscription every time you start a game you've downloaded from the vault? Yes, however this is a seemless background process

    Not seeing the Battlefield ones there at the moment :confused:

    Also cdkeys do 1 month memberships for €2.29 I think if you don't think you'll get use of it for 12. I know I've no interest in the sports ones and have played most of the rest.
