With the fifth game now near to release I'm continuing my imaginary travels based on Sam Fisher's exploits in the first game of the series, after visiting Georgia the journey now takes him back to American soil.
Langley, Virginia
Country: U.S.A.Area: 47.9 km2
Population: 38, 929
Language: English
Sam's next mission takes him to very dangerous ground, infiltrating the very headquarters of the Central Intelligence Agency to gain information on the conspiracy going on within the government. The stealth element really ramps up in this mission as you are not supposed to be there at all, meaning you can't leave a trail of bodies behing, no matter how silently you dispatch them.
The name Langley is one I'm very familiar with from all the U.S. spy games and TV I've absorbed over the years, but I've very little other ideas about the place. For all intents and purposes the CIA HQ is the town's claim to fame. However it would still be great to go just to see the place and maybe get a tour of the ground floor or something. To be where secrets are held and important decisions are made would be an exciting thing I'm sure.
Other than that the town seems to be built up but fairly quiet and probably a pleasant place to visit. It is big enough to hold the publishing offices of USA Today, but from the scant information I've seen it's otherwise a leafy part of town which is good for a stroll after my exciting visit to CIA.
More soon.
