Gotham City Impostors was released on the PlayStation Network on the 7th of Feb in the USA, and the 8th in the EU, and on the 8th of Feb for XBox Live Arcade and PC.
Presentation:
For GCI it helps if you like First Person Shooters, but luckily for the people who don't there is a very helpful tutorial, where players can get to grips with the basics of music, gun fighting, and also the use of the new and very inventive weapons. GCI has taken parts from different games and added their own little touch to it. I personally think that the game takes the serious fights of Call of Duty, and the craziness of Saints Row, mashes them together in a mixer and voila - GCI was born. 8/10
Graphics:
The graphics are very, very cartoony, but who doesn't like cartoon violence, eh? Anyway the graphics are very good in my opinion because it's really just a random fun shooter with a pretty look to it. Fully customisable character wardrobes make it possible to have a totally randomised player, or something as close as possible to the either the Joker or Batman. 7/10
Gameplay:
Now I have no clue where to start with gameplay since there is so much to cover. I might as well start with the weapons and how they fit. In the game you get the basic weapons so a few machine guns, shotgun, LMGs, SMGs, snipers the usual, but they add some 'homemade' weapons in like a gas-powered paintball gun that shoots darts, or a bow and arrow. If you think that's nuts just wait, the thrown items are weirder. You can get different gadgets to help you like wings that make you ffflllyyy XD, or a robe which drags you along once shot: these are two of the many different weird and wonderful gadgets that you can use in the game. Overall the gameplay of the game runs smoothly and effectively and is fun to waste a good few hours on, with cartoon violence, crazy gadgets and random customisation. 8.5/10
The Verdict:
GCI is a fun, interactive multiplayer, half-breed shooter, with lots of potential to become a very awesome game. Even though its quite popular, do the developers (Monolith Productions) have plans for new downloadable content, like new maps, gamemodes, new weapons? We don't know. It'd be interesting to see what will happen to GCI in the future. 8/10
