Fuse Box Art revealed

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
I don't know, I see it as a class based (?) shooter filled with chest high walls (hurrr Gears hurrrrr), bad art and a mechanic based on a substance that blows shit up.

Hey, even smart people and talented teams make bad decisions. This looks like one of them. It happens.



Or get a guy who copies his style and steals components right from his work, lol

A game about jumping on turtles and collecting coins sounds dumb and boring too, you gotta trust a developer to do what theyre good at, and Insomniac is good at making simple ideas fun.

Did you go "hurrr RE4 hurrrrrrr" the first time you played Gears?

The sad thing is.. from videos the gameplay look even more bland and generic than the boxart.

It's EA's money, isn't it?

iirc it's an EA partner program game, so Insomniac do make everything with their own money and EA just do the publishing.

Wanna play spot the difference?

Two EA Third Person Games to be released in March 2013. Guess which one is which.

Fuse is the top one. Army Of Two Devils Cartel Is the Bottom. Only difference is a slight colour palette change

I got owned. Army of Two more colorful! Well we kinda know FUSE is going for a black gray and orange color pallet. Such a opposite to the first Overstrike trailer.

Do you all think we would have got Overstrike, I mean the real deal Holyfield Overstrike with Incredibles style look and all if Sony was publishing/funding it?

My jaw will drop if this somehow manages to sell at all. Generic boxart + generic characters/story + generic gameplay = bomba.

Despite all the negative thrashing this game gets, I have a feeling critics will score it around 6s or 8s. It will still sell like dog shit unless EA spends money on advertising it. Maybe they'll just send it to die.

Giantbomb: "By and large Insomnia has made a perfectly competent game. 3/5"

IGN: "A creatively bankrupt yet well made game. 8/10"

Gamespot: "Insomniac and EA make a good shooter that feels empty. 7.5/10"

But what the hell do I know. Maybe it will just be trash all around...it certainly looks pretty standard fare...

Shame about the boxart. I loved R3's boxart and this just looks lame in comparison.

It's almost as if it's not the same company.
 
Not likeing it.

The orange is overexaggerated. The cover is pretty ambigious. Seems like a quick job. Its 'ok' but not great and it doesnt make me want to know/ask more about the game at first glance.

CROTCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Love how it basically looks exactly like the BF 3 cover with a big orange explosion coming out of the person, except their are 4 people...with 4 orange explosions...and more orange...


I know nothing of this game, will it be great? Me and Josh are wondering.
 
It's dumb box art, but it it's still just box art. I know people are upset over the change from the original art style, but box art was never going to fix that.

I think it's still probably going to be a good game.

insomniac :( overstrike :(

to think back to what gaf darlings they were at the start of the generation when they pumped out resistance and tools of destruction within a year of eachother as everyone else was struggling with the hardware. i really hope they are making a crack in time style big traditional ratchet for the ps4.
 
So you make the game as bland as is humanly possible, then you obscure the faces of the characters, making it even MORE BLAND. How the mighty have fallen..n

That's an offensively generic cover, but I have to say, Fuse itself doesn't seem any more milquetoast than what Insomniac was putting out under Sony, and a lot of folks on GAF (apparently) loved those games.

Yeah I was gonna say. This appears to continue a long legacy of remarkably blase products.

sent to die


Does the game has multiplayer? Won't last three months, then it's a wasteland. Sure, they chose to chase the bigger market, but they're going to get punished so hard for it.
