Under Nottingham Castle*

My bet he is under the one and only "Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem" established in 1189 AD!

Now you could say that's what I call surviving pints of Ale for quite some time, I mean that's even before Crytek started in Nottingham, maybe that pub is even older then when Crytek were Free radicals games! now that's old!

That's pretty incredible! I think that music will haunt my dreams forever!

Yeah, I though exactly that, "pretty incredible"

And some more

The caves below the Old Angel Inn, I love the way you can just place the data together.

Awesome! I haven't actually been to the caves properly yet. I've been to the Trip, I felt really out of place there, everyone was super old and I looked about 12 years old in comparison. I've been to the Old Angel a bunch of times and didn't even know those parts existed! So cool!

Whoever does these flythroughs needs to take some camera lessons, though. I don't get motion sick easily (mirrors edge on life-size screen without reticle, no prob) but this made me a little dizzy.
