It fills me with joy how many people recognize the term "Dorito Pope" on Miiverse.

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
wow
also, why is everyone the same height?
Or perhaps shown to a graphic designer who is not blind or headless.
i'm sorry

the overstrike cg trailer really made it look promising, a colorful third person shooter with TF2 styling that didn't seem to take itself too seriously, seemed fresh
this on the other hand is going to get lost in a sea of countless similar titles
what a waste of a good developers talents

I'm predicting Insomniac will die horribly, which I really don't want to happen.

I think this one is more interesting. It almost reminds me of the Metal Gear Solid cover. Simplicity with feet. Metal Gear Solid had a more interesting title and subtitle though, so just FUSE would be boring. Oh well.

aww hell.
So this game is releasing the same month as Gears of War and God of War AND EA's other super generic third person co-op focused shooter that will get the majority of EA's marketing funding?
How badly do they want this game to bomb?

Ok, the covers have all been stellar, but I laughed out loud irl at this.
You know, the funny thing is, every time I see FUSE get mentioned, I get it confused with HAZE, and it makes me even sadder.

Looks like they did the best job they could with character designs they had.

They could just use their placeholder art.
I like it!

That plus the four silhouettes with the trademark fuze fizzle for color in the middle. Communicates group play, showcases each character by bulk and body language, and gives color and action by way of the fuze, all while minimizing the battlefield and CODisms found in the palette and details.They could just use their placeholder art.
Thats what I'd want to communicate anyway. Not the soldier swagger walk all these games have.
Eit: Shit. Forgot about the 12 year olds. Scratch that.

Not gonna lie I like the Box Art :X
Mainly because orange is my favorite color.
Though unless EA pushes the Advertising this is going to bomb just like Syndicate which failed for the same reason (Along with SOTD and Alice)

Even more generic and boring than I thought it would be.

It doesn't need to be out yet. It might play like heaven even but their pre release "hype" has been so awfully handled. Everything from reveal at last year's E3 then going silent then reveal the game again with a new title and completely different and most generic artstyle around screams troubled, bad game. The game might be fun but even if it is they are selling it so badly it wouldn't matter. Who would be picking this up March next year when quite a few other games are releasing and have far better 'image'? yes, your product image matter a lot, that's how people judge your product, not everyone can try your game or even is willing to try your game given the chance because there are lot of other things out there that 'look' more interesting, this is how bad FUSE image and concept is. This is how it works for everything pretty much, you have to get someone interested first to even has a chance at selling your product, FUSE doesn't even do that.

If developers didn't want people forming opinions of games pre-release, they wouldn't release media for it with hopes of hyping people up.

Man, I look at that and I instantly think of Fracture. That game bombed pretty hard. This box art is way too generic.

Goddammit, now I really wish the game was called BOMB where you control a squad of 4 called "FOCUS GROUP" destroying some beautiful planets by turning them into gray Killzone-type military planets.
Now THAT'S high quality satire!

Even with half their faces hidden everyone still looks unhappy. What is wrong with smiling?
