From Assassin's Creed to Spider-Man, Yakuza, Persona and Grand Theft Auto, video games can take us on a sort of virtual tourism journey. But hiding in the background, there are tons of other** games set in real-world locations outside of The United States, Western Europe and Japan. **Randall Quiggle and Ozzy Garcia join me to shine a light on some games that might teach you a little bit about culture while you take in the sights.
