The reasoning behind that is that players always receive a specific number of items in each pack, and secondly, EA does not provide or authorize any way to cash out those items for real-world money.

What kind of argument is that?


The same reasoning why buying packs of trading cards isn't gambling. Technically, the logic is sound.


No it isnt.

My trading cards have a real world value that I can trade for. If I have a Honus Wagner card I can get cash for it from someone.

These fifa packs contain cards or items that you cannot trade or sell. It's not nearly the same.
