As you know already EA ACCESS is Xbox exclusive and has been fairly successful i mean $5 a month and you get access to every EA game that releases? Personally i use the service because it allows me to buy the physical game and keep it sealed and as a collector keeping a game sealed is very rare. The service has allowed me to play FIFA at midnight when it launches and other games throughout the year.
I primarily play EA games on the XBOX due to the better hardware it allows sport games to be reacted to a lot quicker and you can get more FPS so i can time what i'm doing better.
I wouldn't be surprised if EA went Xbox exclusive because EA games on PC are exclusive to origins, there are very few games from EA available on STEAM but however Xbox and Microsoft may be buying STEAM so that may change but we'll have to wait and see.
Games by EA could also be better due to not having to allocate resources to ports to other consoles which could mean problems like Mass Effect: Andromeda had it's first week could never happen again.
If EA games wen't Xbox exclusive i would be glad but also annoyed. I would be glad because i could challenge everyone who plays FIFA competitively so that i can grow my skills and plus FIFA tournaments are Xbox exclusive anyways so Playstation players wouldn't be at a disadvantage at tournaments. I would also be glad because Microsoft would light a fire in EA'S ass and get them in gear and their games would be alot better and we wouldn't have issues like we did in 2017 since Microsoft doesn't push releases until it's actually ready and because Microsoft listens to their consumers.
I would be annoyed if it went exclusive because i enjoy playing FIFA on my Nintendo Switch so losing that ability and being stuck with FIFA 18 forever would be very discouraging as new stars emerge in football. It would also suck alot because if the Playstation 5 is more powerful than the Xbox(TBA) than that could be a problem because by then every game will be pushing 90 FPS as an average and if PS5 has the power for 90+ FPS and the Xbox doesn't then that will really cramp my eyes jumping from PES on PS5 at 90 fps to 60 FPS on Xbox.
To my knowledge this is still underground news about EA being bought by Microsoft so it could still fall out and Microsoft could back out which would be rather unfortunate after most people getting excited about this. What do you think about this decision?
