Much as we’ll praise the characters, stories and mechanics of a game, it’s the levels that can ultimately make or break the experience. Sometimes those levels don’t just exist in a vacuum – they’re part of a larger cohesive whole that constitutes a city. Today we’re taking a look at some of the best cities in video games.
