Ryan Davis, 1979 - 2013

Giant Bomb has suffered a profound loss.

 

Ryan Davis passed away on July 3rd. He was 34.

 

Obviously were all stunned over here. Ryan was a good friend to all of us. Its odd to remember that, for someone who could be so acerbic at times, and despite knowing him for almost a decade, I honestly dont recall ever actually being mad at him. He had an unconventional type of kindness that expressed itself more strongly the longer one knew him, and despite his teasing nature, he always managed to make his close friends feel loved when his attention turned towards you.

 

Many of you know that Ryan was recently married. In the face of this awfulness, many of us will at least always remember him as we last saw him: outrageously, uproariously happy, looking forward to his next adventure with the biggest grin his face could hold.

 

The consolation we can feel from that is miniscule compared to the hole that Ryans absence will leave in our lives. Thats not a hole that is possible to fill; its just something that well just have to get used to walking around with, and that will not happen for a long, long time.

Very sad. One of the most entertaining people in games media. The man behind the world's best gaming podcast. Condolences to his friends and family.

 

It's strange that he died on the 3rd, but looking at Jeff Gerstmann's tweets, he didn't know until a couple of hours ago.

 

RIP
