It was just bethesdas shitty attempt at a better TF2 clone but for consoles. You can pick up a new copy for like 5 bucks now because it sucks so much.

Why? Because it had a class-system?

Class based, mainly multiplayer, cartoon styled. That's a TF2 ripoff if I ever saw one.

it has more tactical feel to it, better graphics and there's a bunch of parkour gimmics involved, full customization for most things, as well as it had 3 body types and 4 (4? i cant remember how many) classes, now it wasn't a good game by any stretch it had a lot of issues, but calling it a clone of tf2, a cartoony FPS with 7 classes and purchasable hats and pre-made weapons and items, with no gimmicks at all, also the game modes were different.

look the list of differences goes on, honestly did you even fucking play brink before calling it a clone?

Yeah, bought it when it first came out. Had to sell Red Dead Redemption and Mirror's Edge to get that shitty piece of garbage.

HOLY CRAP! I sold the same two games.

well then how could you honestly call brink a tf2 clone, or did you just play brink for 10 minutes before calling its shit.

Battlefield Heroes has a class system with a cartoon style, but that doesn't make it a TF2 clone. Gotham City Impostors looks cartoonish and focuses on being comedic, so does that make it a TF2 rip-off?

I don't know about Brink or Battlefield Heroes, but Gotham City Imposters was definitely a TF2 clone...

Love the QI gif btw.

Gotham City Impostors lacks a class system. Pretty much the base of TF2.

GCI has an RPG system, it may not be a class system strictly speaking, but it's close enough, and has a similar feel.

Furthermore, I wouldn't call the base of TF2 the class system, it's more about the hyper arcade style gameplay and generally hat based reward system. The class thing is mostly just to keep the game balanced.

The game had a campaign and a multiplayer, usually this would be valid argument, but their exactly the same, the game is fun for about 20 minutes. (see "The Escapist: zero punctuation" for any game references you may inquire about.

That's because it was buggy, had constant connection issues, terrible class balancing, and just wasn't captivating.

It was bad, and of little note.

Yet they advertised it so good. It could have been good... Except for the everything.
