Developed by Monolith Productions and previously released for PC, Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system in February 2012, Gotham City Impostors allows up to 12 players to battle for control of an unhinged Gotham City overrun by Impostors inspired by the DC Comics characters Batman and The Joker.

Players can engage in deliriously fast paced, uniquely vertical, and completely unconventional urban warfare where progress supports leveling up and access to a mind-boggling array of customization options.

The game features eight maps and four modes inspired by the DC Comics’ Batman license. The maps include 25th Floor, Ace Chemical, Amusement Mile, Arkham Asylum, Crime Alley, The Docks, East End, and Gotham Power. Gamers can choose from several gameplay modes – Team Deathmatch, Fumigation, Bounty Hunter or Psych Warfare modes – and engage in all-out combat, or they can choose the Challenges mode, a single-player mode that allows players to safely explore the different maps and practice using different weapons, support items and gadgets.

i like batman a lot more then team fortress 2. i bought it ages ago and it was clear as day light that it had to be free to play. i still bought it for less then 10eu so i am happy anough. i guess i will get something nice for it anyway.

I tried this last night, if anything its pretty much a mix of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare + Brink with a Batman Theme. I wouldn't consider it anything like TF2 at all.

My opinion though, considering we are comparing games - I'd play Team Fortress 2 over this any time of the day. Gotham City Imposters is still worth playing though, especially if it's F2P
