GothamCity Imposters - Its a tf2 clone with a batman focus, i am not making this up - your thoughts?

[jackpackage200]

Here is the trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xusq5AbFEB8&feature=channel_video_title
Can anyone tell me how to embed youtube vid on the escapist?

Looks similar to TF2. I mean it looks fun but i don't see it having a lot of people playing it. It would probably do better on the pc. I say this as a console gamer, when it comes to fps games on a console, players just like running around and killing people than following objectives. Ofcourse i could be wrong and this game ends up being more awesome than the second coming of christ.

What do you guys think?

It's an FPS with two different sides. Those existed before TF2.

When I saw that, I never would say it's a TF2 clone.

It's a wacky, colorful FPS with a big customizable mechanic and some pretty awesomeass weapons.

Doesn't mean it's a TF2 clone to me in any way.

Whats wrong with TF2? I'm a console gamer as well and i see nothing wrong with TF2.

EDIT: There is also a zipline gun, could not get anymore awesome than that.

EDIT 2: Is this a class based shooter? does anyone know?

 

[Zeroandx]

Never would I have made the compareison to TF2. I have no idea what your talkin about

 

[Gorilla Gunk]

Looks fun. And it's a $15 down-loadable too.

And I don't see how it's like TF2. It has more in common with CoD than anything else.

 

[Lullabye]

Well it certainly takes it's stylings from TF2, but the gameplay looks like it has a slightly different feel.

nanananananananananana Batman!

That is all I have to say on this topic other than it looks fun.

 

[hazabaza1]

Looks more like a wacky version of Brink and Bioshock 2 multiplayer. Still looks sort of crappy though.

 

[pyrosaw]

Looks like my kinda game. But still depends. Time will tell.

 

[deshorty]

So....TF2 plus the awesomeness of Batman is a...bad...idea? I would say that statement is false.

 

[Iwata]

It looks fucking stupid. Just because there's been a good Batman game, it doesn't mean that it necessarily translates well to other formats. Sue me if you like, but when I think of a Batman game, I sure as hell don't think "Man, it'd be awesome to play not-Batmen(and girls) fighting not-Joker(s) on a generic team-VS-team MMOFPS".

I see it going the same way as "APB", and this one, deservedly so. And the Batman fan in me is raging. This is clearly based on an old graphic novel focusing on a gang of Batman impersonators, but whereas that book was a tragic tale, this seems like Batman's version of a wacky sitcom. As directed by Joel Schumacher.

I have been looking forward to it on PC. Looks like Enemy Territory: Batman more than anything else. It is wacky, it is goofy, it looks like fun.

 

[NathLines]

What? Because it has cartoony graphics it's a TF2 clone? I'm sorry, but by 1:05(when the everything goes batshit insane) it doesn't look anything like TF2.

 

[geK0]

looks pretty fun. The character design is fucking terrible though! Sort of like a bunch of bad Comicon cosplays.

 

[Lord Avon]

I thought this game was fake when I first saw it. I mean really WTF?
