They will stop making R&C soon too. They are going multiplatform and won't be making any Sony owned IPs once their contracts are complete. Sony will just assign R&C and Resistance to some other internal studio.

Fuse looks great. It looks much better now then it did when they first debuted it. I'm glad they'll be able to reach a broader audience. No 3rd party developer should do anything other than multiplatform games.

what looks great about fuse? I like the idea of specialized classes and team participation but those games never work out. Other than that it looks extremely generic from it's name to it's look to it's story line. The latest video I watched on it seemed like ted price was trying to convince everyone how this new direction is better because of the backlash it recieved

It's not generic. What about it is generic? Just because it's a team of special agents with advanced alien tech doesn't mean it's generic. The game looks fun, the characters seem cool, and the setting is interesting.

I'm so tired of people accusing everything of being generic. Halo, Killzone, Crysis, Gears of War, are not generic yet I've seen countless attacks on them by snarky jRPG lovers who think anything with a space marine is some kind of blight on gaming. You know what seems generic to me? jRPGs with their teenager heroes, spikey hair, and giant swords. But they aren't generic, I'm just less interested in them than other games so I don't look deeper. You know what really is generic, those bargin bin games you see piles of at Walmart. The ones you've never heard of with titles like "Horse Trainer" and "Farm Simulator 2012". Those are generic.

Unique does not equal better and tropes do not make things suck.

Oh and the title "Fuse" isn't generic either. How many games have used that word for the titles before? I think the number is pretty low. It refers to the game's weapon mechanics which Insomniac has tried to get the word out on. But sadly too many Sony fanboys are upset that it's not a PS3 exclusive so the game gets poo pooed by at least one person every time it gets mentioned.
