NBA Live 16 Has Arrived in The Vault For EA Access Subscribers

[Steve_OS]

NBA Live 16 has arrived in The Vault for EA Access members. For those of you that might still be unaware, EA Access is an Xbox One exclusive, allowing members to try upcoming EA games prior to release, offering 10% off all EA digital purchases and more. It also gives users access to The Vault, which houses a growing library of EA games subscribers can play as much as they want. Users can subscribe to EA Access for $4.99 per month, or $29.99 for a full year.

I still wish they'd bring online team play back. I always preferred it on Live over 2K

Nice, looking forward to trying it out.

Even for free, it's a ripoff.

EA Access has more than paid for itself over the course of this past year. I wish more companies would do something like this.

It still amazes me that people hate on the access program, mostly a result of blind hate towards EA because EA is obviously the evil empire of the gaming world and can no good.

Paying for one year of Access and downloading even one 2016 sports title already makes the purchase worth it. Madden 16 is still selling for $30+ from most places. Between all the Vault games and the trial games Access has been well worth the price. I'm gladly renewing my subscription when it runs out.

So I finally get the full game working after the struggles with the free trial of the game during March Madness. Start up a Rising Star mode, play through the majority of the game with all the upcoming draftees...around 1 min left in the 4th quarter the game freezes. Like is just stuck on a screen shot of an inbound and doesn't move from there. I'm cursed with this game series. Last year, I would play Rising Star and every other game it would freeze on a free throw making it so you would have to start the game and start it over. I wanted to give it a fair chance but when the first game you play of the game mode does this, it's hard to really have that much faith.

I think it depends on the person. For me personally, EA just doesn't make many good games, FIFA being the only one I have remotely enjoyed in recent years. Also, I lose interest in a sports title pretty quickly after a season ends, which is typically about the time these games make it to the vault. FIFA is a great vault game this year because of the Euro Cup, but usually I'm ready for a break by May.

All that being said, anyone stoked for getting NBA Live is most likely in for a big disappointment. I had the biggest case of 2k fatigue, and still couldn't make it through 1 whole game of Live. It looks and plays like it was made 5 years ago. Whoever made that Pro Am trailer last summer deserves some serious credit for the polish they were able to put on this turd.
