5 Greatest Video Game Wingmen Of All Time

1. Victor 'Sully' Sullivan €“ Uncharted

uncharted "God Damn." Sully is, in my opinion, the ultimate wingman. He checks every box; he's a good friend, good back-up in a fight, hilarious and taught Drake everything he knows about the life of crime...... and women. Much like inFamous 2, Uncharted 3 was somewhat of a buddy movie for Drake and Sully. Fans have loved Sully ever since Drake's Fortune and their dreams came true when he played a major role in Drake's Deception. In the third instalment we were treated to some fantastic missions that showed how Drake and Sully met, which really solidified their friendship for the audience. Sully is like a father to Drake as well a best friend. Sully is easily one of the most lovable game characters ever, which is why a scene near the end of Uncharted 3 was horrifying, while it lasted. That being said I think they missed a chance for some real emotion there, they seemed to really be building to it with the flashback scenes, showing Nate and Sully's father/son dynamic. I think they probably had planned to go through with it but ultimately changed their minds. I'm not overly bothered by their decision to backtrack as it means more adventures with the gang and more "God Damns." Even though Sully didn't have a massive role in either Uncharted 1 or 2, he still became beloved by everyone. He was basically Drakes father. It's this relationship that made Sully such an important character and added a great father-son element rarely seen in games. Even though Drake is hilarious on his own, he and Sully always have a blast together and the dialogue is fantastic. Sully has quickly become the 2nd most important character in the game and it wouldn't be the same without him. With such an impressive 'stache it's easy to see why Sully is a hit with the ladies. The booze-loving, womanizer helped Nate search for El Dorado, bailed him out of jail, jumps off a cliff with Nate and the two run headfirst into the Atlantis of the sands. It's safe to say Sully would walk into hell for Nathan Drake; his loyalty rarely comes into question (besides the beginning of the first Uncharted). Which makes Sully the ultimate wingman. I'm positive there's plenty other great wingmen that I haven't included in this list. Sow ho do you think is a great wingman?
