Situated next to the Vaticano district, Castel Sant’Angelo is an imposing sight made all the more menacing by the number of Papal guard and Borgia soldiers that patrol its grounds. The view here is from the upper Northeastern tower providing a view of the Castel’s upper levels not visible from the public-facing side.

Our first extended tour focuses on Roma, Italia as experienced in Ubisoft’s 2010 release, Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood (recorded here on Xbox 360). You can watch the videos right here on Videogame Vacation or on our YouTube playlist but be sure to switch them to 720p for the most dazzling displays I could capture!
