I imagine all games next gen, with online options, will have online passes. Are you not going to invest in next gen?
FUSE doesn't have an online pass, they've already confirmed this.

If you look at the reaction to other games, like Defiance, where the same criticisms would have to be raised if they were ever genuine to begin with, you'll realize this is not really about the game at all.Do you guys actually want the game to bomb? Even if you think this is a misstep from the company that you like, it's a single misstep. If the next game they announce also looks aesthetically uninspired you can call this a trend.
This game might be a bit grayer than the initial Overstrike reveal, but the weapons and the coop part is still the same as what one would anticipate from that E3 trailer.
Exactly. Fuse will be super awesome, because it builds on something that was already awesome.Resistance 2 had very fun coop and this looks an evolution of that.
so... I'd do this if EA would pay for printing both sides of the cover, but alas it's already printing (I finally just got a single copy in hand)

The primary driver of all this "backlash" could very well be that Insomniac is a formerly Playstation-exclusive developer, and they're now facing the headwind from Xbox fans who treat them as damaged goods.

Lol the backlash is nothing to do with it being multiplatform. The backlash is due to going from Outernauts to this shitheap
Damn, those green 360 cases never get any less ugly, do they?
Woops yeah that. Outernauts is the facebook thingI think you mean Overstrike.
Syndicate is pretty much the evolution of R2 Coop. Better in every way. I dont have any belief that Insomniac will produce something better than Syndicate.Resistance 2 had very fun coop and this looks an evolution of that.
Oh man I hope this is better than Syndicate, that's a pretty low bar.Syndicate is pretty much the evolution of R2 Coop. Better in every way. I dont have any belief that Insomniac will produce something better than Syndicate.
Coincidentally they are both sent to die by EA Partners.
Was referring to next gen. Fuse is only on current isn't it?
Oh man I hope this is better than Syndicate, that's a pretty low bar.

I doubt it. Nothing shown comes near Syndicate Coop.It is.
Low bar? Syndicate co-op?Oh man I hope this is better than Syndicate, that's a pretty low bar.
Well, FUSE scales in difficulty based upon human player count, doesn't it? And you always have 4 characters to leap between, so compared to Syndicate, FUSE is at the very least solo friendly. That's a big plus.I doubt it. Nothing shown comes near Syndicate Coop.
Fantastic weapon feedback and you feel like you are fucking someone with gods dick when killing fools in that game. It some ways it reminded me of FEAR with to how much I enjoyed using those guns. The sounds certainly rattled my walls anyway
I wonder if the discs are cut on top as well.
I agree the co-op was good but there were what, 5 levels or so? That played exactly the same every time. I enjoyed it for a while but it was a serious dearth of content. I'll be shocked if Fuse isn't superior. And yeah the less said about the Syndicate campaign the better...Low bar? Syndicate co-op?
Campaign, sure, but co-op? Really?

just keep in mind, of all the Ratchet games, Ratchet 1 has aged the least gracefully and is pretty raw. No upgrades, no XP, no strafing et al
There's a ton of jaggies in that video. That was painful to watch. Please tell me there's some AA in the final builds somewhere.Looks better and better.
Me and my 3 buddies can't wait to co-op this.
Yeah, if Syndicate was purely that co-op mode (like FUSE) one could hope things would have turned out better for them.I agree the co-op was good but there were what, 5 levels or so?

Stop writing words.
It's a dumb name but most video game names are dumb, I don't see what the big deal is.
I am of course.Who's getting it on PS3?
Not saying you're wrong, but outside of the art-style first impressions what makes this a "generic bro shooter"?I don't think it's a big deal that someone's making a generic bro shooter...

Sorry - I must have missed the parenthesis. Its just that whenever I read those kinds of terms "generic", "bro" I don't immediately grock what people are getting at. Going by forum posts here COD is bro and Gears is bro, and Halo is bro and Killzone is bro, but they're wildly different games to play, so those terms don't really communicate much.If you kept reading, I basically said "by all outward appearances". They could have secretly made a great game, but they hid it under the guise of possibly the most generic looking game ever made.
