The 9 Greatest Videogame Drinking Buddies
Oktoberfest is on right now, and it's time to start calling friends up. It can be tough to find a good drinking buddy, especially it seems, in the world of video games, where most of the delicious ambrosia we call alcohol has been carefully removed from the day to day happenings. What follows is a list of a few characters that might just be willing to split the tab with you. In some cases it's for better, in some cases it's for worse, but if you'll probably get a story out of it.
And really isn't that why the Germans invented beer anyway? Or maybe it wasn't the germans, maybe it was this guy . Check out these great two-person drinking games to enjoy w/ these videogames.

The King Of All Cosmos - Katamari Damacy
The King of All Cosmos is one you're going to have to watch out for.BUY @ amazon
On the one hand, he's pretty much God, so he can, in all likelihood, just will booze into existence, and with him in your entourage, you'll get into even the most exclusive of clubs. He's also a very snappy dresser.
On the other hand, you're going to have to keep an eye him. Because when he gets trashed on "Nature's Embrace" he goes flying.
Literally.Through space. While destroying like a bunch of stars and stuff.
And then you're going to have to pick up after the guy. Oh, no wait, no he's got his son to do that for him. And his extended family. Hmmm. Well then really no harm to you then.
I say when going for a night on the town, it's good to be with the King. - 2
Nico Belic - Grand Theft Auto 4
- 3
Chuck Greene - Dead Rising 2 (and Case:Zero)
OK, I'm going to call this one a bit early, since DR:2 hasn't hit store shelves just yet, but since Case Zero's already out I say it's valid.BUY @ amazon
But seriously, who wouldn't want Chuck to tag along?
I mean it remains to be seen how everything's going to pan out for him and his daughter and whatever happens to Las Veg- I mean Fortune City, but if nothing else, the man is a drinking MacGuyver!
He can make you beer helmets, knows how to create mixed drinks, can repair your car if you drunkenly crash it (looking at you Nico), and if all else fails isn't too self-conscious to jam a moose head on his dome and run around for your amusement!
Besides, he's a motocross celebrity who knows his way around a city of sin. You'd be sure to get laid if you were hanging with him!
I'm expecting Dead Rising 2 is pretty much going to be like The Hangover, but with more zombies. Or maybe like Dead Rising 1, but with more drinking. In either case, the booze-hound wins! - 4
Conker - Conker's Bad Fur Day
- 5
The Bard - The Bard's Tale (2004)
The Bard is perhaps a tough guy to hang around, but I'll tell you this, he'd make a great wingman.BUY @ amazon
He's a snarky, cynical smart-ass stuck in a bad parody of every fantasy game trope imaginable.He has to deal with all the familiar elements (fetch quests, damsels, goblins, yawn) and even the horror of the the musical number or two.
His priorities are definitely straight: get the girl, get the grog, get the gold.
All traits you'd want in a good wingman really.
As long as you can deal with his attitude that is. And musical numbers.
