  • Summary: Gotham City Impostors is a multiplayer game unlike any other, giving players the opportunity to rebel against conformity as they customize their own characters. Posing as amateur vigilantes or villains, gamers will create their very own Bats and Jokerz characters using unprecedented customization options including insane costumes, homebrewed gadgets and a wide range of traditional and imagined weapons.

    This is a $15 download, and it packs more than enough content into its frame to balance out the relatively meager 5 maps and 3 modes. Make no mistake, however, Gotham City Impostors stands head and shoulders with every other big-box multiplayer shooter out there.

    A few technical limitations aside, it's time to become the impostor and spend an endless amount of hours mindlessly addicted to the high flying, Batman-less action at stake, or the joke's on you for missing out.

    One would have expected a gentle tragedy out of Gotham City Imposters, not unlike the way its collection of wacky gadgets would perform against actual assault rifles. In practice, however, it's those same silly toys that boost Gotham City Imposters out of copycat land and into a neat realm all its own. If you want a bit of humor and subtle creativity injected into your competitive first person shooting, and don't mind its inherent familiarity, look no further.

    An unfinished game that could have been entertaining if you didn't have to put so much effort to actually enjoy it. If your character didn't have to level up so slowly, you wouldn't need to invest more money into it. If someone had done their work, there wouldn't be need for this incomplete piece of junk. Not even its low price can change its outcome. There's not even a smile on Joker's face and that is always a bad sign.

  1. This game is Awesome! I cant believe there are 1000 levels! I will try my hardest to achieve that level because I don't think this game will get old. This was a brilliant idea for a game; I just hope it will be supported throughout the year. This game deserves attention because it is a fantastic game 10/10 Expand

    Beside horrible matchmaking and team balancing (new game, it needs a patch) this game is really worth it. It has some kool maps and gadget. Teher is no single player campaign, beware of this, if you are not into MP stay away from this.
    I would also add that after playing this, you can really feel that paying 60$ for Call Of Duty is a total ripoff. Not that its better, its just pretty much the same thing with a different skin. I like them both and will probably purchase COD future release anyway because im a FPS fan...

    Verdict, worth playing really. But they need to fix matchmaking and team balancing.

  3. The game is fun, features a lot levels for any shooter fan to blast his way to (1000 levels). The game however has a lot of matchmaking issues, a lack of levels, and feels a lot like Call of Duty if the military dressed up as Batman and the Joker, and had their funding taken away. collecting items and customization can be a bit addicting, and the gunplay is rather solid. Definitely worth the $15 price tag, but no more. Expand

    Matchmaking is terrible for an online game, sucks the fun right out of it when you spend more time waiting than actually playing the damn thing. Only game type worth playing is deathmatch as the other game mode Fumigation takes light years to find 8 players. Wait until the game is patched to a working state before parting with your cash.
