IGN - The most unfortunate thing about Fusion: Genesis is that it's called Fusion: Genesis. I've had to look up the name every time someone's asked me "What is that?" when they spotted me playing on Xbox Live. Sad, isn't it? I keep forgetting its throwaway, generic name and nobody knows what the game actually is.
It's a shame, because what's-it-called is an ambitious, exciting, and atypical action/adventure game. IN SPAAAAAACE.

A handful of Indie Games kick off the show with Beep Brrp Bing Bang Bosh, Chompy Chomp Chomp, 5MinRPG, Mambo, and Rocket Narwhal. Craig rocks out with JAM: Live Music Arcade, everyone is unmoved by Dragon’s Lair, and Craig revisits some past looks with Haunt and Fusion: Genesis. Craig whips the troops into shape with the Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor demo, Jeremy gets sidetracked from Game of Thrones, Sean and Jeremy get sucked into the world of Dragon’s Dogma, and Craig and Jeremy shoot a lot of folks in Max Payne 3.

Do all these elements stack up?"
