Game Review Fuse (X360, PS3)

Co-op shooter for four people about the detachment of special purpose of the near future should cause only positive emotions, but in practice it is an interesting idea turns into a hymn of boredom and monotony. Main idea Fuse It revolves around the eponymous substance extraterrestrial origin, which is more powerful destructive force of all known types of weapons of mass destruction.Special forces sent to rescue one of the private military companies and is in the heart of the struggle for possession, as the material itself and created onIt is based weapons. These are the four types of small arms: Warp Rifle, create miniature black holes; Shattergun, turns into crystals of the living enemies; Arcshot, shooting explosive shells and Magshield, creating an energy field and generating a reverse shock wave.

Weapon - branded chip Insomniac, but in the case Fuse a uniqueness not enough. Special weapons and not powerful enough to kill the weakest enemy alien substance goes holder.And it's not talking about bosses and their previous versions, which will require not only multiple completions of ammunition, but also excruciating game of cat and mouse with rifts and shelters.Developers try to balance this lack of a set of special perks that increase the damage of grenades and giving temporary invulnerability, and even them special abilities, such as mobilekits and invisibility, is clearly not enough.The latter is used for stealth assignments, which in most cases end in a shootout, as the game AI behaves very strange, seeing you in some cases and not noticing the other, not to mention the failed system of rifts and pressing, which prevents quietly sneak up on the enemy .


There is a collective game and perks, pumping that require more than one pass, and dozens of hours of multiplayer games. Wherein Fuse not a shooter in its purest form, but rather a set of popular genres shooting from stationary turrets, climbing style Uncharted, computer hacking and doors, as well as a small puzzle withLaser protection occurring here and there on a long journey.The roughness of the gameplay is supported by an equally uneven narrative with the only interesting boss and then brazenly borrowed from Batman: Arkham Asylum.The rest of the bad guys - this is repeated from time to time the same type of reinforced opponents with different sets of weapons. The final villain is far away from these two-legged walking robots.Periodically, the game tries to create extra stress on the scene throwing enemies have abilities similar to yours, but the repetition of the same scheme:Corridor Arena wave of enemies throughout the game, even with their own combat robot is hardly interesting.

In single-user mode, the game slips into a deep anal hole where characters refuse to help each other on the battlefield, the system disables switching to another character in the case ofwounds and repeatable bosses make you restart the same fragment of dozens of times because of the stupidity of your teammates.And it is a monotonous mechanics with obsolete by modern format graphics and special effects.Multiplayer is only good for four people, as the presence of at least one bot promises you a lot of problems from the accidental loss of up to unrealistic browser and then restart the level.


Outcome:
Fuse - This is an interesting concept that has not been realized until the end.The monotony, boredom, numerous mistakes and stupid companions with an unbalanced system of weapons and perks, and came with dozens of identical bosses left not the bestmemories. However, if you decide to try, do this at least in cooperative mode for two people.
