Remembering Ryan Davis, 1979 - 2013

What's weird is seeing all the GB crew tweets from earlier this morning and it all seeming like a normal Monday. I wonder how long they knew.

Tuesdays will never be the same. :(
 
Let's keep the speculation about what happened when and why out of this for now, yeah? This really isn't the time to be focusing on that.

This... isn't the way someone should have to go. At such a young age and just after a huge family celebration? It's all just so sudden and such a hard and unexpected swing from getting married a few days prior.

I can hardly imagine what his wife, his family, and the rest of the GB crew are going through right now. But what I can imagine is that millions of people will miss him starting off the Bombcast every week.

He was a good guy with a great sense of humor. He will be missed.
 
My heart sank when I read this. I'm still in shock.

I've never really said this before, but the bombcast guys (especially Ryan) helped me through hard parts of my life with their humor and love of video games. I'm so incredibly sorry to hear this news. It's the worst thing I've heard in a long time.

I felt like I lost a friend :(
 
Saw this thread before heading out of the office for lunch, assumed it was another "Brad is leaving Giant Bomb" type thread...

Miss him already.
 
Truly shocking and devastating news to wake up to. I've been reading and watching his content since the GameSpot days when I was very young. Rest in peace; you will be missed.
 
What did the poor man die of? I always want to know so I can take measures to prevent it in myself. Was it a heart attack, diabetes, what? He was two years younger than me, and only slightly more overweight, plus I'm diabetic!

When I see people younger than me die without explanation, it really makes me feel like I'm next, and I could die at any moment. So while this is a terrible tragedy, we need some details.
 
I am extremely shaken up by this and I've only been following GiantBomb for about a year. Didn't even know Ryan before then.

I can't even begin to imagine how people close to him are feeling. Deepest sympathies and condolences to everyone whom he has touched in his unfairly short life. He was an entirely awesome person.
 
Very sad news, I just keep remembering all the years of "knowing" him on GS and then GB... I listened to a 3 hour podcast yesterday on a long drive home, cant believe it
 
Not trying to be rude, because I'm ignorant on these matters.

Who is Ryan Davis and why was he so important for the industry? I just saw it trending on Twitter right now.
 
Tragic news, really shocking.

Thoughts go out to his wife, family & friends, and the giant bomb crew.

I've been listening to/watching Ryan for years. Was listening to a bomb cast just half an hour ago. I can't quite believe it.
 
I saw this new pop up in another thread and thought this must be a joke. a bad joke. then i checked twitter and saw a lot of sad comments already : (

he will be missed! i never met him, i wasnt even a regular listener to giantbomb but of course i knew he was one of the most memorable person in the industry. he was just good in what he did. you could see that easily. rest in peace .-.

@ giantbomb crew: stay strong guys, u have a huge community behind u to support u guys through this time.
 
Damn he was one of the bast parts of Giantbomb and the video game community, such a loss and at 34 no less and just married. I want to leave this planet now he was one of the reasons i got all excited on Tuesdays. I am curious the cause.
 
wait .. what ?

how !!???

I'm listening to last week's bombcast as i type this .. how the fuck does a 34 year old young guy just up and die like that ?

what the fuck
