maps in real life

Postby _biafra_ » Fri Apr 13, 2012 17:35

Recently I came across the following:

I did a little search in google maps and here are some fun links:

1st allies spawn
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=45.434883,12.323967&num=1&t=k&vpsrc=6&ie=UTF8&ll=45.434819,12.324101&spn=0.000757,0.001183&z=20

2nd axis spawn:
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=45.433030,+12.324958&num=1&t=k&vpsrc=0&ie=UTF8&ll=45.433029,12.324902&spn=0.000721,0.001183&z=20&iwloc=A

does anyone know any other real ET map locations. I know goldrush is based on a french movie(which one?) It could be a good idea to get some screenshots from the film.

Probably the map Amsterdam is also based on reality or maybe just fictional in the look of amsterdam not sure.

And ofcourse the millenium falcon is based on reality ^^

The first part of Venice is also similar to a real place called Campo Santa Margherita (been there a lot of times for partying :) )
The ET map is based on Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade movie.

And Cluedo is based on Bowdown real mansion :D
