In a move that certainly left me stunned, our review copies of
Fuse were given to us without an Online Pass. Thinking this was some kind of horrible joke I looked underneath the help document that told me the manual was included on the disc, checked behind the cover art, even tried entering the serial number from the Microsoft Authenticity label. Imagine my further surprise when the game didn't even prompt me for an Online Pass.
In all seriousness this is pretty interesting that EA would skip the Online Pass for such a multi-player heavy game. Our upcoming preview will cover some of the online play along with the game's 'Echelon' mode, and early reports are that it looks pretty good.
