i havent seen any threads for this so...

man, how good are these new maps?

especially london and new york.
who could ever imagine half of manhattan as greenery?
also the precision of them-done without satellites or anything!!
a fantastic addition for GE, no doubt...

i know, i know.
i would have thought the UK would have been the first to get it, considering its geographical size, history, and her standing on the world stage, but no.

i shall amuse myself (!!) with the updates we are given in the meantime i s'pose...

They totally stuffed London up, the long shadows spoil everything and you now have to get too close before you can make out where you are, making navigation across London a pain in the arse.
