I don't get how he could have died July 3rd and this is the first we're hearing about it? Seems all the GB crew were tweeting like normal up till today.

Maybe they wanted a private funeral and didn't want the internet to get in on it?

Not that it's any of my business, this is just all so surreal.

That was in my mind as well. Shows amazing restraint to not only remain silent by all who knew but to continue tweeting/communicating without saying anything

Can we please stop speculating about what killed him, at least this early?

Seems like a pretty natural question to ask when somebody dies at 34.

 

[Catalix]

I truly can't believe this shit. So fucking sad...

RIP Ryan

 

[DevelopmentArrested]

damn

 

[Majine]

Just earlier today I thought "Oh, tomorrow's tuesday! This weeks Bombcast is going to be great with Ryan and the rest of the gang being back".

Damn.

 

[netBuff]

Holy shit, this can't be reality - why isn't this a nightmare - fucking terrible, devastatingly bad news.

GiantBomb and Ryan Davis have been a big part of my life for the past few years, I really can't accept this.

Rest in peace, Ryan Davis.

 

[exmachina64]

how did he die ?

We don't know. Don't speculate.

 

[Acheteedo]

I'm devastated.

This one cuts deep, this is way too soon, 34 is too young.

Huge fan of the Bombcast, sorry but it won't be the same without him.

 

[Reticent Rhino]

A completely unexpected tragedy. Ryan provided literally hundreds of hours of entertainment over the years. My condolences to his friends, family and co-workers.

 

[Torraz]

Holy shit! I thought this would be some kind of sick joke...

Condolences to everyone close to him.

He provided so much great content at giantbomb. Don't think the site will be the same without him.

 

[zroid]

WHAT THE FUCK

 

[Vic-Rattlehead]

i feel like crying and i didnt even know the man just spent years and hours of my life listening and watching him talk about video games

whatta legend he was RIP Mr Davis

 

[MikeJAMoran]

Those are tailored but it actually still is trending worldwide. fyi

They weren't tailored.

 

[Lunar15]

This is just so surreal. I mean, it's like Ryan's been riding in the car with me every day for the past 3 years. To not hear that voice on my commute anymore is just...

 

[p3tran]

:/

my condolences to his family and to everyone that was close to him.

happy paradise Ryan!

 

[Pops Maellard]

Jesus. Rest in peace Mr. Davis, you will be missed.

 

[Liha]

omg R.I.P.

 

[ShadyJ]

WTF...

MY HEART JUST SANK INTO MY GUTS,....

HOLY SHIT MAN

 

[BlackJace]

I'm sorry, but that tweet from his wife really got to me, and I'm not even that familiar with him. What a damn tragedy.

 

[GreatMightySymp]

Damn. Hopefully his family makes it through alright.

 

[[HP]]

Shit... RIP dude, you shall be missed.

 

[ForteanMan]

This is really sad news. RIP Ryan. My condolences to his family and friends. I was just catching up on the last few weeks of Bombcast I was behind on, weird to think I won't hear him anymore on a podcast

 

[MNC]

I am at a complete loss. Just recently married. This is so stupid... No... Nothing stops the taswell....

 

[Seik]

Wow, holy shit, the man just got married.

Nobody deserves to die at this age. R.I.P.

Wow...

 

[jmdajr]

OMG I'm speechless...

 

[smuf]

Goddamn this comes out of fucking nowhere. I always loved him on giant bomb. RIP Ryan.

 

[keiichi]

Oh my gosh

My condolences to the families and friends of Ryan

 

[Bbaj]

RIP
I'm just sitting here shocked out of my mind.

 

[Zeppelin]

I've spent 3 hours every week for the last couple of years listening to this man and now he's gone. Incredibly sad. RiP.

 

[Esura]

34 is such a young age to go. Never knew of him but his passing is sad all the same.

Condolences to his family.

 

[mbmonk]

My condolences go out to his wife, friends and family. Hopefully we will see you, Mr. Davis, on the other side.



I will say it is a true blessing in life to find your soul mate and many in their lifetimes do not have that experience. So while it is a sad day, there are gifts to reflected upon and be thankful for.

PS: Give me the benefit of the doubt if this post is worded incorrectly. I intend no ill will.

 

[YuriLowell]

My brain cant deal with this right now.

 

[Gagaman]

Games journalism has just lost one of the funniest, most down to earth guys in the business. He made me laugh through hundreds of hours of quick looks (he even inspired me to animate him once), and Giant Bomb won't be the same without him. RIP Ryan Davis.

 

[Str0ngStyle]

That is the worse thing I could have read today short of one of my own family passing. RIP Ryan and my condolences to his wife, family, friends and fans.

 

[Ingueferroque]

Very sad news. What a loss.

 

[BurritoBushido]

 

[Kacho]

This is absolutely horrible news. RIP

 

[khaaan]

(not tailored) as of a few minutes ago.

Just in shock.

Trending world wide I think...still shocked as well.
It's crazy.

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

Nothing on gamespot about it. Classy.

 

[DasMarcos]

What is wrong with some of you people? Stop trying to Matlock how he died. He's gone. That's the hardest and worst part out of all of this. Stop talking about pills, stop talking about obesity, stop trying to piece stuff together. I can't believe some of you have the audacity to even bring stuff like that up. This is not the time nor the place.

The longer people don't know what happened the louder the questions will become. I don't see anything wrong with questioning the events leading up to the death, but people should keep the questions to themselves. Airing it here won't provide them answers.

 

[AndrewDean84xX]

Roger Ebert and now Ryan Davis. Two of my favorite reviewers gone in less than 6 months. Fuck. Giant Bomb is my favorite gaming site. He just got married! WTF man.

Love you man. I will enjoy the PS4 and XBO for the both of us.

 

[winstano]

I haven't shut my mouth since I read this on Twitter. Holy shit.

Hey everyone, it's Tuesday. Forever. RIP.

 

[FullMetalx117]

God This is awful...
R.I.P
Condolences to his family and friends

 

[Jinaar]

Awful, awful, awful news. All the best to his family, friends and GB.

 

[ThePointyEnd]

I am almost in tears over this.

I LOVED Ryan Davis.

He was my favorite of the crew.

I am SO sorry Jeff and company....and Mrs. Davis.

 

[Dabanton]

Did a double take when I saw the thread title.

Always loved his work with GB his going to be missed greatly.

RIP

 

[scaffa]

Rest in Peace Ryan Davis.

I'm speechless, can't believe the news and actually get tears in my eyes from reading everything. I will miss him.

 

[MThanded]

I don't get it. what the fuck happened. I am stunned. I never had the chance to meet this guy and now he is gone too soon.

His voice has been a constant in my ears for a long time now. sad.

 

[Coffee Dog]

WOAH WHAT

He was so young! Absolutely horrible
