Obsessively Cataloging Video Game "Pop" Culture
It’s a little difficult to discern in the screenshot, but that’s a row of kvass vending machines from Time Recoil. Kvass isn’t exactly a soda, but its Wikipedia entry is quite possibly the most interesting thing I’ve read all day.

Cold Winter for the PlayStation 2 is kinda like Alpha Protocol, only with all the interesting RPG elements stripped away. Cold Winter ultimately edges out Alpha Protocol, though, thanks to this trio of Zaf Lite drink machines.
Nothing says “classy establishment” quite like this row of Pop Thang soda machines from Casino Inc.
Soda Light offers the calorie-free energy boost you need to brawl your way through the gang-ridden streets of CORRUPTION!
A video game sequel should always strive to improve on the original. For instance, the soda machines in Secret Service: Security Breach actually have dispensing trays (in contrast to those featured in its predecessor, Secret Service: In Harm’s Way).
Close Quarters Conflict is a 2007 FPS for Windows, featuring this soda machine that apparently dispenses both bottles and cans.
…just clap your hands. Just clap your hands.
It’s difficult to make out the logo on this drink machine from Blind Shot: Assassin’s Confession (Sim Beer? Pim Beer?), but given the Coke-inspired design and its placement in a hospital lobby, I’m going to assume it dispenses some kind of soda. [Source]
This nondescript soda machine from Hitman: Absolution blends into the background almost as effortlessly as Agent 47.
Our protagonist isn’t thirsty after draining a bunch of henchmen dry in BloodRayne 2, but she’s at least willing to pose dramatically in front of these vending machines.
