Never got into the mechanics of the game much. I know from other friends that it's at its best with street-level supers, and martial arts types. It apparently isn't as good at say, Golden Age superheroes or anything in that venue.
I also recall being told that the point system breaks down if you're not careful. One person built a common housefly and it apparently cost something like 500+ points, because of all the levels of size reduction it had to have.
Edit: I also recall being told once of a guy who built a character using only default points, who had a power which was guaranteed to destroy the whole planet. He gimped and psych-lim'ed himself with as many penalties as he could fit on the character, but by the time he was finished, he had a power he could use once, which would end all life on Earth.

Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.
