This may be stating the obvious here, and not to say that the other zones are, but...

I never cease to be amazed by how much effort Cryptic can put into a city, this is something that can be missed if one is just zipping around the skies and dropping down only to battle, but I've been spending some time flying along the roads and just enjoying the sights. There are so many little touches there that are probably rarely ever appreciated.

I know I've mentioned how much respect I have for Cryptic's art/design team before, but again I think it's necessary, because the attention to detail borders on the worryingly obsessive. Thus far, Millennium City is one of my favourite cities, and I tend to enjoy it even more so than GTA IV's. That might be because of all the bright, vibrant colours, the cheesy undertones, and the absurd travel powers, but still...

Good job, Cryptic. Good job.

Yeah I have to agree. When I first made it to Millenium City for the first time, I couldn't go anywhere. I was staring at everything and enjoying the sights. I mean, it looks(minus the futuristic look) like a real city that I could live in. It even has a gas station!

I do love MC as well. They put so much thought into all of their zones it is really impressive. And the way the landscape follows you around and flavors the backgrounds is really awesome too.

Yes, I remember when they first had us try it during beta. I was so busy exploring I and looking at everything I got killed a few times, haha.

I like just landing or flying by a bunch of pigeons on a rooftop or sidewalk and watching them take off.
Things that make you go "WHOA!" :)

Just like what my friend and I have dubbed the "random bears" in canada and the desert.
