Fuse Won’t Contain Microtransactions or an Online Pass
It saddens me a little bit that THIS is now considered news, although nowadays, it most definitely is.
With the norm now being that many high-profile titles include microtransactions, online passes and the like, Insomniac Games has announced that their upcoming shooter Fuse will have none of the aforementioned extras.
In an FAQ on the developer’s website, an Insomniac rep was was asked whether the game would require an online pass and they said:
“Nope. But, you should still buy it new to support us because there are no microtransactions to make up for it, though. :D”
Some time before the game’s release in May, a demo will be made available on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network giving potential buyers a chance to see if Fuse is for them.
How things have changed, huh? I remember when online passes were first emerging and a video game containing one was big news, yet now it’s the complete opposite. Personally, I’m delighted to see Insomniac announce this. I just hope that Fuse can be something worth talking about, once it finally comes out.
Fuse will be released on May 31 in Europe and May 28 in North America for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3

How's things? I'm the video guy and would love if you'd watch the things I do like Debatable and For Your Amusement. I spend the majority of my days explaining why The Wire is the greatest TV show ever and clamouring for a Pop-Punk revival(c. 1994) whilst singing in my best Axl Rose-esque voice. Do not say professional wrestling is “fake” around me or, he’ll bore you with, what I like to call, “the risks they take”. Henrik Larsson is my hero.

Oh...and it's pronounced, "Cull-um".
