I recently lost my CoH era HD due to !@#%^, but I did have some pics backed up and since I'm feeling nostalgic, figured I'd post a couple that caught my eye  :P.
I keep trying MMOs and thus far, nothing compares. meh.

I have been using Icon a bit and noticing so many billboards and other signage details I never bothered to pay attention to when the game was live.

A lot of imagination went into the design of Paragon.

And after a sudden urge to google .. found some old 'CreyIndustries' website profiles.
This was my Main main =p . http://www.creyindustries.com/viewhero.php?id=12826

Most of the links/pics still exist, so you should be able to browse and have some fun with it =D

really does seem like the sort of gag line you
d see from a smart-arsed superhero in a comic, doesn't it/// say if Peter Parker had married a skrull or something.

It really does.
On a vaguely related note the Rikti_Destroyer is stupidly huge. It was rather difficult to get it anywhere near ground level without intersecting with a building. Not that it matters for the purposes of that single screenshot, but i was setting it up as part of a sort of oversized diorama for my own amusement.

I miss that hill we all used to run to on Talos Island when we came under Nemesis attack, or a Rikti invasion.  One of the best parts of the City is the flurry of activity whenever the developers threw a furball our way.  What was the name of that hill?

The Last Line of Defense was the exploration badge, but i don't recall the hill's name. i just always thought of it as the sandpile.

I only ever heard it called "The Big Hill". Maybe "The Big Hill in Talos" if you were in some other zone. Not very imaginative maybe, but everyone knew what you meant! :D
