I am shock and sadden to hear the news about the passing of one of our great bomb lords. I still couldn't believe that it was real, but unfortunately I had to come to terms with it and in doing so my heart sank.

At first it was wired I find myself asking how could a person I've never met have such a profound impact on me? I had ponder on it for a moment then I realized why. It was simple he and the rest of the guys have become apart of my life routine. On the good days, the bad days, studying for an exam,and so on the Giantbomb crew were in the background cracking jokes and doing all kinds of crazy crap all the while keeping me up to date on what's hot/stupid in the gaming world.

Especially Ryan. He has giving me an embarrassingly amount of riches in the form of amazing/funny moments whether it be in video, informative articles, trust worthy reviews, or on the bombcast. He was always on point...It was beautiful man...and for that I am forever grateful for everything Ryan has done for both Gamespot.com and Giantbomb.com over the years. I don't know what else to say, but that my heart goes out to his family and friends. As well as...well thank you...Thank you Ryan Davis.

And with that I wanted to end this with one of my favorite quotes from the NochoBoss himself.

"It's 18 years old, Daytona USA. You could fuck it if you wanted to." - Ryan Davis
