    Right so, Stephen Merchant did a fantastic job as Wheatley but I struggle to say it was the best performance simply because Stephen Merchant pretty much is Wheatley. That's his usual voice. However he scores huge marks for enthusiasm, he really seemed into the role and his delivery was fantastic.

    As you can hear here, Merchant is Wheatley through and through.

      

     
    Nolan North did an amazing job voicing all those robotics, though I struggle to say it was the best performance as they were heavily edited voices, I'd have to give it to J. K. Simmons really.

    The problem is every voice actor in this game is fucking amazing, but Simmons just about edges it. Might as well give a shit out to Ellen McLain as once again she gave an amazing performance and I loved the song.

    All of them. 


    EDIT: Okay, Stephen Merchant, Nolan North, and J.K. Simmons in a three-way tie. That's as close as I can get to choosing.

    Smerch had a lot more dialog as Wheatley now since people have heard Ellen McLain before. He grabs the tops for me for this game.

    I also didn't know it was Nolan North until I looked it up. Glad to see him in a role other than the everyday guy with "that" voice.

    Ellen McLain's voice is the heart of the Portal series so I have to give it to her, but J.K. and Mr. Merchant knocked it out of the park.  Nolan North had like 4 lines.

    He didn't! He probably had the most dialog in the game after Merchant and McLain.

    I know he did the defected turrets, the space core and if I remember right the fact and adventure core.

    I thought every voice actor was great, but a lot of J.K.'s jokes fell flat for me and Wheatley's mannerisms often bordered too close to Ricky Gervais territory.

    Wheatley was my favorite from the moment he tried to make Chell talk.

    It was also very wierd listening to Wheatley talking about chatting up that girl...

    I laughed when I say Nolan North in the credits, didn't pick up that it was him when I played the game.


    My favourite was  probably S tephen Merchant.
