The Giant Bomb Thread - General

rip ryan davis

I woke up to this news. Having grown to liking Ryan probably the most out of everyone at Giant Bomb, this is sad stuff man.

:(

Here's some Ryan for everyone: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsXfUsIRq4o[/media]

According to Ryan's dad on Twitter, he died peacefully of natural causes. Anyway, Patrick tweeted "Podcast." about an hour ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they Skyped him into today's Bombcast.

dying at 34 while sleeping isn't something i would consider natural cause.

Its up to the family whether or not they release the cause of death, if all they want to say is natural causes then we'll have to accept that. Although that pretty much means that all we know is he wasn't murdered.

I found out about Giant Bomb when somebody posted that Quick Look video about that biker game here on FP, and since then I've been watching them non-stop. Then the news of Ryan comes and I feel like shit. Why couldn't I have heard about them earlier? My heart goes out to his wife and kid.

What's this about giant bombs? [video=youtube;4iGqbacjtBg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iGqbacjtBg[/video]

i only started watching giantbomb very recently, and this news comes in. i feel awful

the last 2 minutes of the podcast is devastating.

I've had the podcast paused halfway through for an hour now, I just can't take it. I'm going to really miss the duder. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcromflvVEU[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64k5THdC64s[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMBQrbtjPWI[/media]

Drew put together lots of behind the scenes and cut stuff into a video. Shows Ryan at his best I think. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hvq7InWUYIc[/media]

Been almost a week now and I'm still not really grasping that he's gone. Have you guys ever cared so much about someone passing away that you've never met? I know I haven't. Maybe Billy Mays.
