TOP FIVE SANDWICHES IN VIDEO GAMES!

BY ADAM VARGAS

Thanksgiving time is a warm and family oriented period in 

the month of November where we get together with our 

loved ones and try to enjoy, and think about what we're

thankful for. It's also an excuse to eat three days worth of

food in one sitting. What better way to commemorate this 

day than with a Top 5 list which has nothing to do with the

holiday.

Number Five

"Uncharted 3: Subway commercial"


Okay okay! This happens in a commercial for the game 

and not the actual game, but that's why its number five 

on the list people! Back in 2011, SUBWAY ran a 

promotional commercial for Uncharted 3 which shows 

Nathan Drake (main protagonist from the Uncharted 

series) holding a wrapped sandwich and drink from, the 

sandwich restaurant chain. And that's good enough for 

me to make it on this list.

Number Four

"Burger Time: The burgers from burger time"

I know what your thinking "Hey! You don't make 

sandwiches in Burger Time, you make burgers! That's

why it's called Burger time! WHAT ARE YOU AN

IDIOT?!? Well take a look at this --> Sand·wich: two

pieces of bread with something (such as meat, peanut

butter, etc.) between them. Boom! Sandwich! It's an 

arcade game about making Giant sandwiches and 

throwing pepper at mutant fried eggs and sausage.

That's sounds more like a fever dream than a game.

Number Three

"Castle Crashers sandwich"

This has to be one of my favorite items in the game

. Often referred to as the "beefy Sandwich" or "steroid

sandwich", this item is eaten by the characters and 

transforms them into a hulking, muscle man for ten

seconds. It is fun to use for sending a barrage of buff

punches to your enemies, and just the thought of eating

a sandwich and getting buff is great. Every time I try and 

do that I just get fatter.

Number Two

"Team Fortress 2: Sandvich"

Aw yes, who could forget the oh so popular "Sandvich" 

weapon from Valve's free to play FPS Team Fortress 2. 

An item used by the game's Russian Heavy weapons 

class character, it gives the player an amount equal the

standard health of the Heavy class (300+) at the cost of 

waiting 4 seconds for an animation of the Heavy eating 

it. This sandwich should probably be at number #1 on

the list due to community popularity, and function of it

in the game, but I know everyone would hate me if 

I didn't choose...

Number One

"Resident Evil: THE JILL SANDWICH!"

I'm sure a lot of you out there saw this one coming. I 

know I gave the definition for a sandwich to justify 

putting a burger on the list, but you guys just need to 

shut up and accept this! Jill Valentine one of the two 

playable characters you can use almost gets crushed to

death from a collapsing trap ceiling. At the very last 

moment fellow officer Barry Burton saves her from 

being  crushed after which he proclaims "That was too 

close, you were almost a Jill sandwich" . 

This had to be one of

the most quotable lines from the first game due to it 

being so corny and poorly voice acted. Since the release

of the game this has become a very popular video game

meme in the gaming community. It's even referenced by

another popular zombie game from the same company 

"Dead Rising" (see picture below). It technically isn't a

sandwich according to my definition, but I don't care.

This is my list! Go find your own sandwiches in video 

games.

Didn't that list just fill your heart with the holiday spirit? 

Me neither. Thanks for reading our first Top five list. We 

hope to Make a bunch more. Now go buy stuff, 

Christmas

is like Tomorrow.
