Heard that correctly folks, EA is making a subscription program for the Xbox One. Monthly $5 or Annually $30 to play the games that EA says you can play. And it's on top of the $60 yearly Xbox Live Gold subscription. So now you'll be paying a few hundred for the system, $60 a year for online, and now an extra $30/$60 for EA games (If you don't buy them separately).
Looks to me that EA's trying to force "Games as a service" onto their consumers fully, with the Xbox One as the test bed.
