On this episode of The Co-op Podcast we discuss EA’s new subscription service EA Access. Sony has denied the service on their platform because they believe it doesn’t offer good value to their customers. However, with Playstation Now and Playstation Plus, could it be that Sony saw EA’s service as a threat? Does the fact that Microsoft agreed to the service give them an advantage? We discuss this all on the show.

Gamestop is going to offer customers a credit card with an interest rate that is double the national average. It seems like Gamestop is so eager to leech off the gaming industry that they will now openly exploit gamers. Is this enough to make people stop shopping at Gamestop? We discuss the issue.

Bandai Namco has confirmed that Tekken x Street Fighter is still in the works, but it might be a while before we see it. What are our expectations for this game? We discuss this and the addition of Rorschach to Mortal Kombat X.

All this and more.
