Noburo Sugimura passes away

:( Damn that totally sucks when anyone in the industry passes away. I'm sorta embarrased to read about his fruits nourishing me though :-\
 
Ah, two of my favorite games of all time, RE2 and CV. It is indeed sad to see someone who helped bring so much joy into our homes pass away. But his touch will live on indefinitely through these games and people will always be reminded of his contribution.
 
That's really sad. It says Okamoto just asked him to work on a new script last month... :/

He was a talented guy. I wonder what the cause of death was...?

Nothing on the Japanese page at all? :(
 
Sucks, I enjoyed all those games he worked on with the exception of DC3 which I never played.

He wasn't hit by a car as he was changing his flat tire, was he?

You should be banned for that. Being insensative to two deaths makes you an enormous prick.

Ill check the newspaper tomorrow here in Osaka and see if he was local. Either way, my heart goes out to his family and friends who have lost more than we have as admirers of his work.
