Hatred

I’d rush into a burning building to save this soda machine from Hatred!
Konbini

Konbini is an indie vignette game that invites players to explore the narrator’s memories of an abandoned convenience store. Feed coins into the vending machine to hear the narrator reminisce about an especially memorable citrus drink. Here’s an even more minimalist take on the soda machine from the title screen…

Subway Surfers

In 2013, Subway Surfers introduced Tokyo as a limited-time destination in its World Tour mode. In these screenshots, Harumi surfs past a variety of soda machines.


Having never visited Tokyo myself, I can’t speak to the accuracy of the “one soda machine stacked on top of another” configuration.
Gungrave

How edgy is this screenshot from Gungrave, a third-person shooter for the PS2 starring a guy with a coffin full of guns chained to his back? So edgy that I almost overlooked the soda machines.
Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number

As far as I can tell, these guys from Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number bought a bunch of Red Pop from the soda machine, spilled it everywhere, and then slipped in the puddles. Tragic!
Silent Hill

Everything is vaguely creepy in Silent Hill — even the vending machines!
Rituals

I appreciate the minimalist low-polygon elegance of this soda machine from Rituals, a 3D Myst-’em-up set in a mysterious office building.

Thanks for the screenshots, Cornelius!
D.i.R.T.: Origin of the Species

I read a review of D.i.R.T.: Origin of the Species that claimed the game was “notable only for its generally poor taste, ugly graphics, and nonsensical plot.” What about its vending machines?!
