Reading about Matt Rorie's Harry Potter marathon showed me how much I enjoy his writing style. Although it was a pretty scatter-brained account(as he himself confessed), I still thoroughly enjoyed reading through it.
This got me thinking about the best/most enjoyable writers at WM. This is purely in terms of their use and style of language. It's not about whether you hate Brad's reviews because he always disagrees with your opinion.
I'm not really sure about my thoughts about the Giant Bomb guys. Jeff seems to adopt a very casual approach while I know Brad's a very capable writer.
So yeah, my vote's for Rorie for now :)
Most Enjoyable Whiskey Media Writer?
The original cast:
Bob C
Rich Gallup
Jeff Gerstmann
Ryan Davis
Vinny C.
Alex Navarro
and Matt R.
I love pretty much anything these guys do, that's why I am here.
Also I am HAUNTED by the phrase "Yo Tito: hand me my Choco-Taco"
Brad's by far the best writer among the Whiskey guys; he not only has a clear, engaging writer's voice, but he actually knows the mechanics better than almost anyone else in the enthusiast press.
That's not to say that the rest of the guys are bad writers; Brad's just far better at writing than the rest of them.
On GB I suppose I enjoy Ryan's writing style the most, followed by Jeff. Over on Screened I think my favorite writer is Andrew. Alex and Rorie are cool guys, and I'm not saying they can't write (they're actually quite proficient at it), but they put a tad too much snark in their posts for my tastes.

" I love Ryan's writing style. He makes me laugh through his written text much more than his outloud words. "
" The original cast:Oh man, thanks for the link. haven't seen that in a while. and the grin on his face after tito hooks him up... priceless

" @UnlivedPhalanx said:Speaking of which, after I moved from the west coast: I have not seen Choco-Tacos. Any idea where a guy can snag one of these in Texas?" The original cast:Oh man, thanks for the link. haven't seen that in a while. and the grin on his face after tito hooks him up... priceless "
