In all honesty I'd love Drew to go on the show, but it would ruin the mystery.
Me too. Drew's my favorite (and a not so secret crush of mine) and I'd love to know more about him but at the same time I kind of like that he's still pretty private compared to a lot of the duders on the site. It'd be great to hear what kind of answers he has in response to some of the questions though.
For a site like Giant Bomb whose success is largely thanks to the personalities of the staff I think Austin's approach to news writing fits the bill well. Writing a plain news story that follows the AP style of journalism can be extremely boring and sometimes difficult because you have to be so objective about it. I don't mind editorializing news stories as long as the writer isn't treating their opinion like gospel and Austin's written this story in a way where he just casually gives his two cents about it rather than preaching his opinion. Were he writing news for another publication this may not fly at all but for GB, I think it works. I'm looking forward to what else he has to offer the site.
