@TheAuthenticEnd so agree with this - Steam do this already - you buy a physical copy of the game, put the code in Steam and it adds it to your account. The only slight issue with this is that there would be nothing to stop you buying the game, registering it with your account and then selling the physical disc on. I know they could have a one time use code that would invalidate the game in future, but if someone bought the game second hand that would put them at a severe disadvantage - it's bad enough that when buying second hand games the special codes aren't transferrable without the entire game not being transferred!
Had it for years on the Xbox One - really good idea as it gives most of the EA sports games included in the subscription even when they're only about 6 months old, and massive discounts on the newer EA games too - with the price even buying just one EA game a year it's worth it. Also got the Origin Access on the PC too. Really disappointed though with Sony as to how it's taken so long to include on the PS4, mind you even more disappointed that my PS4 Pro can't even play UHD movies - although I don't think Sony can do anything to fix that at least they've finally got round to fixing EA Access!

Re: EA Access Confirmed for PS4, Arrives This Summer
@zimbogamer Unravel is a decent EA title, plus many of the sporting games too.
