The 26 most amazingly interesting vending machines in video games

The Cave

The self-referential throw-back one.

Deus Ex

The oꦍne that could do with augmenting its colour🧸 saturation.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution

The one that you can throw at a man's head. Presumably in a fit of rage because it gave you wha♉t you didn't ask for.

Shenmue

The one t෴hat definitely doesn't look like Coca-Cola.

Fallout 3

The one you shouldn't use, because everything in it is probabl𒊎y decades old and will make your gullet glow.

Shadows on the Damned

The 🌄one that takes a bit of extra effort, but is well worth it once you realise your soda is 90% proof.

Doom 3

The one with the gleefully murderous mascot.

Pokemon Blue

The one that has to tell you it's a vending machine because it looks l🔥ike a set of shelves or somethin💖g.

Gears of War 3

T🔜he one y🥃ou ignore because you're too busy looking at yourself, you big narcissist.

Scribblenauts

The one that probably has a starving cocktail bar🌃man trapped inside.

Long-time GR+ writer Dave has been gaming with immense dedication ever since he failed dismally at some '80s arcade racer on a childhood day at the seaside (due to being too small to reach the controls without help). These days he's an enigmatic blend of beard-stroking narrative discussion and hard-hitting Psycho Crushers.
