Anyway I told him to search online and he saw it and said sir I have no idea, let me talk to my supervisor, and after 5 minutes he came back and said his supervisor said there has been one other instance of this and that there is some deal where some lady typed in her access code on XBox and it worked. Which made no sense because the codes arent out yet and its the middle of May. So if you are going to call Directv looking for answers, they wont have any.

Dude, never call Customer Service for stuff like this, management has probably not even notified them about this and they have way more stuff to worry about. Nine times out of ten if you are keeping up on the internet you know more than them.

Now I'm not much of a MUT player but is the Madden Ultimate Team Subscription something on the disc or is it just a code?

Yeah, I get that he said that "eligible gamers" just means any gamer that has a code.

But that doesn't make sense to me, if the Amazon advertisement is true. I mean, it all centers around the word "eligible". Why use the term "eligible gamers" if every single person who buys the anniversary edition can use the code?

The word "eligible" has to differentiate between at least 2 types of gamers, or it just doesn't make sense. There is absolutely no reason to include the word "eligible" if all gamers can use the code that is in the box.

I'm honestly not trying to say that you're wrong. I hope that the code can be used by everyone who buys the game.

But if that winds up being the case, whoever wrote that Amazon advert needs to be moved to a different department, one in which he' not "eligible" for jobs that require writing advertisements.

Eligible gamers refers to people who are able to access Sunday Ticket through DTV or the app. People from outside of the US (Canada/Europe) can purchase the Anniversary Edition through Amazon's US site, receive a ST code but wont be able to use it because DTV and the app are not available in their country. Thus they are not "eligible gamers" for this promotion.

People need to stop overthinking this. I know people are suspect because it seems like a great deal and EA is involved but its very simple:

If you dont have DTV and dont want to get it: You can use the code to access ST through the app or on a computer.

If you dont have DTV and want to get it: You get 10% off a month and ST Max.

If you already have DTV: You get ST Max.

Thanks. That makes sense, and I hope you're correct.

Gee whiz, they should've hired you to write that advert. It was much more clear and concise.

Excuse my ignorance b/c I am definitely one of the ones that is over thinking it. I have had NFL Sunday Ticket for over 10 years and last year I didn't get "Max" (Redzone, etc.) with it. So with this Anniversary Edition I will now get the Max for free?

I see in the first post under Update #2 that every box has a unique code for every gamer, what exactly does that mean? They have a code for every scenario? Can all of them be used? Like if I wanted to give my friend who is thinking about getting DirecTV the code to get Sunday Ticket for free and $10 off their bill and then I use the code for the Sunday Ticket Max for myself?

So I will now get Sunday Ticket Max now on my TV with Redzone, etc. with the purchase of this edition???

I don't think so, you will get the part of Sunday Ticket Max that allows you to view games on a tablet, PC, etc but then maybe I suppose it's possible that you'd also get the Redzone if they choose not to break it up that way..
