I looooove Katanas!

Shame they had to nickel and dime this game. Was ready to go buy it until I saw them charging for the content on top of the base line price.

dammit.

Farts make everything better

Mafia bat is pretty cool. But Office Bat is still top tier.

@crusader8463: I thought you could technically earn everything in this game? You could buy it if you wanted, but you could also earn it all in game.

Content unlockable by playing and completely irrelevant to the actual gameplay. The only stuff you can't unlock through playing are completely pointless cards and avatars that follow you around.

If idiots buying clothes and vanity items means free gameplay updates, sign me up any day.

@Arker101: I think you can, but unlocking stuff kind of ruins the achievement of doing it when I know some rich guy can just buy the same thing I had to work towards.

@animathias: If they do a ton of free updates of the quality of this I could see myself giving into it and trying it eventually, but I just can't stand when games let people pay their way to the best stuff. Even if it is just vanity items. I feel like it cheapens the experience for me.

@animathias Amen to that! All of this content looks awesome! I'm glad other people buying catwoman mascots got us all this for free!

This video has a severe lack of Office Bat.

Good stuff. I like free DLC.

I was all happy about this and then... PWND by a ninja...

I am kind of holding off on this game until they fix that losing your characters stats bug. Any word if that has been corrected yet? I really want to play this game but don't want to be frustrated with it.

All of the content in this game can be unlocked using in game currency. No nickel and diming. Also, the game costs $15 not 60

Looks like they are adding some cool stuff.

It's too bad that people are giving it such a hard time because of them letting you pay for content even when they don't understand how the system they have works. Any items that have an effect on gameplay such as guns, mods, psych profiles, and fun facts CAN ONLY be unlocked through playing the game. You can pay for things that are cosmetic if you wish, but they have no effect on gameplay what so ever, and you can unlock them all by playing the game anyway.

Yes! I love Gotham City Impostors. I haven't had as much fun with any other game this year consistently than I have with Gotham City Impostors. :D

Well, to get technical... most of the mascots cannot be unlocked and have to be irl paid for.

Side-comment: Is anyone having problems finding matches?

Sweet free dlc that's rather needed (at least with the maps), rest of the game is great from what I played but a few more maps makes it better.

spiketailon Feb. 24, 2012 at 12:23 p.m.

Totally rooting for Office Bat for Best Mascot of 2012!

My stats were reset last week, so I've been watching this closely. On their forums they have stated that a patch has been submitted and is awaiting approval.

Submissions can take several hours to be approved.
