Overall Gotham City Imposters is a fun and fast-playing multiplayer game with a great sense of humor. If you're looking for a multiplayer shooter that you can jump into now and again for some quick fun, it's certainly worth a spot on your Xbox 360's hard drive.

Compared to other multiplayer shooters flooding the market, Gotham City Imposters may not offer the same breadth of game modes and map content, but it certainly stands out thanks to a great sense of self-referential humor and some oddball gadgetry. Even when the chuckles subside, the madcap action stands strong on its own.

This is a fantastic FPS that finally risks taking creative strides rather than following the formulated methodical COD approach to the genre. The customization is unmatched in terms of class based shooters and the gameplay is fast fun and furious, not to mention this game is a quarter the price of what activision is making you pay every year for a regurgitation of the same stale product. The DLC is available but completely ancillary if you're willing to earn the in game currency on your own. While there are imbalances in the game, the developers have wisely created counters to each and every play style; you just have to think a little and be willing to change your class. But all in all this is a breath of fresh air to the world of shooters. Great game for a small price.

If you think the idea of playing a first-person shooter as a gang member inspired by Batman or the Joker is a good one or enjoy playing comedic shooters, or just love playing with costumes, then there's no doubt that Gotham City Imposters is for you. If you just want to shoot the man; well, there's pretty much every other first-person shooter out there.

Ultimately, the game's sloth-like progression of the first six or seven hours relies far too heavily on each player's patience. [Issue#120, p.99]

Gotham City Imposters adds daft gadgets and a massive dose of style and humour to an old template, and it's a hugely entertaining way to pass any number of evenings, once you get through the matchmaking. But its biggest problem is that the unlocking system and stingy coins system constitutes its own form of psychological warfare with the player. And there, it misfires.

It isn't quite as polished or diverse as it should be. [Issue#83, p.102]

At first glance I thought Gotham City Impostors would provide an interesting take on the FPS genre but I was sadly mistaken. This is just Call of Duty with homemade weapons and a quirky sense of humor, except it lacks everything I enjoy in modern shooters. The grappling hook is a fun addition, but in all honesty a good game without a Batman license will always be better than a mediocre game with a Batman license.

How can people not appreciate this game? I don't get it. Maybe they forget it is an arcade game, not a full retail title. There are no better shooter games available for download on XBOX LIVE as an arcade game.

a solid team fortress style multiplayer game with a variety of unique maps, weapons, items, and special abilities. Great customization, you can edit your player to your hearts content, the gameplay is average and can bee buggy sometimes.

what people are forgetting is that this is game is a downloadble game not a full ranged game so if you want bang for what 12 pound this is the game for you.

Gotham City Impostors is a buggy mess ****. The plot and character models are stupid and don't make any sense; the graphics are very poor, and the shooting is fun, but that fun is limited. The gadgets are just confusing. Matchmaking is very awkward, and the game bugs out frequently, accompanied by several small glitches. All attempts at humour fail miserably, and the game just comes off as a cheap, copycat pile of garbage.

copies cod in a way that any sword/knife can probably kill u in one shot really ticks me off the buggy lobby system and the unfair teams are frustrating 2/10 would give it a 1/10 but i guessed since it is a fps i should be raging all over the place
