How odd that I happened to be listening to the last Bombcast that Ryan was on today. I've listened to this episode at least 3 times already. In fact, I listen to all Bombcast episodes 2-3 times or however many times it takes until the next bombcast was available. Why? Because the Bombcast is the best damn podcast I've ever heard and Ryan was a huge part of this. I've been listening to podcasts with Ryan on them since the hotspot during their original gamespot days. Back then, he rarely hosted but was always funny and brought an energy that made the hotspot the best podcast at that time. But as a host on the bombcast, he nailed it! He was so good at directing the flow, keeping the conversation on track, playing off everyone's comments, and just keeping things lively and entertaining. And now he's gone. I just can't believe it. I've spent hours every week with this guy (via my iPhone) for years now that it's like a significant part of my life is missing. It's like I've lost someone close yet we'd never met. Perhaps it's silly of me to feel like this yet there it is. I can't imagine what those who actually knew are going through right now. I ache for them and can only take solace in the fact that they'll have pleasant memories and each other to get them through this. Bye Ryan. I'll miss you. Thank you so much for all of the entertainment you've brought all of us over the years.

I don't think so.  I think we'll have a Duke Nukem FPS again someday (as a nostalgia piece like Return to Castle Wolfenstein or DOOM 3 were), but I don't think it will be DNF.
