I am absolutely gutted by this news this morning, with the time spent listening to the bombcast it feels like iv lost a friend... And he only got married about a week ago...

I've mentioned it a lot on here before that I listen to the Giant bombcast and just visit GiantBomb in general a lot, in fact it was guys like Ryan Davis, along with the old TalkRadar guys, that finally got me to fully realise that I was a gamer and accept my nerdom for all its glory.

Sad sad day and I am hurting with his friends, family and his now poor widowed wife... so damn sad...

I was just reading an article for a classic arcade game - GunForce II. It wasn't until after I realised I was directed to Giant Bomb from google. Pretty sad really

I was pretty cut up all last week about it... listened to the Bombcast and the last 15 minutes was hard to get through.

Never met the guy but I had spoken to him on Twitter before and about 5+ hours per week between Bombcasts, live shows and quick looks... its an interesting look at how the world has gotten smaller thanks to the internet.
