Hahahaha. Shy, quite, nervous, BLONDE HAIR and 1:56, haha. This is like the exact opposite of Ryan on Giantbomb. I guess his future son went back in time and made him punch Biff out or something to make him the man he is today.

I know this is old and people might have seen it but I haven't come across this one before.

How old is he in there? Fifteen?

Oh, MAN! It's hard to imagine Ryan Davis playing a PS1 game for review.

And dude, blonde hair? That must have been cool back in the day.

Pretty sure he isn't sporting any facial hair there.

Yeah, this thread was all about the dudes pasts (well, Brad and Ryan).

#7 Posted by Darko (113 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

That was painful. And awesome.

#8 Posted by Cerza (1653 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

Oh God! The dyed blonde hair. I remember that look and hated it with a passion. It was all the rage back then though.

Will the real slim shady please stand up?

#10 Posted by Bellum (2944 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

Seems like you gain confidence with years or experience. Go figure. :P

#11 Posted by Binman88 (3668 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

This is Ryan before he got his on-camera confidence, and before he became the asshole we all love and hate.

(Also, relax, I'm kinda joking)

Looks like he was going for an Eminem look.

#13 Posted by trophyhunter (5804 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

man he sounded super depressing in that

#14 Posted by Snail (7911 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

OH GOD I CAN'T LOOK.

#15 Posted by SamStrife (1058 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

Already posted in a fairly active and recent thread, but it's still crazy. What bothers me is how different he sounds, almost like he hasn't hit puberty yet...the way he drags on some of his words and a pitch that's somewhere between what he is now and a choir boy.

young jeff kicks young ryan's ass

THEN IT IS HIM.

This seems to be from the Spock-with-a-Goatee universe.

This truly is the age of mirror Ryan Davis.

#24 Posted by Marz (5475 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

wasn't there a thread about this already.

#25 Edited by BigBoss1911 (2273 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

I wouldn't have even recognized him without that beard.Guess blond hair the big thing back then.... Heres Jeff back in 99.

#26 Posted by RobotHamster (3969 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

Damn, I almost didn't recognize him for a second holy fuck. All of them here on giantbomb has really changed over the years drastically. Just listen to the bombcast, or any of the videos and you could tell in their appearance and voices.

#27 Posted by Darko (113 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

@Red12b: Off topic but... how the fuck is that 'emo' hair?

wow that was a loooonnng time ago, he said "iller" without trying to sound ironic

#29 Posted by Zorena (13 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

I just watched the "eidos game lynch and whoever " with jeff and man that looked crap, funny thing is that could probably be fun multiplayer concept if done right from the start.

#30 Posted by ryanwho (12083 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

Glass houses, guys. I had a pony tail in 99. A fucking pony tail. It was a different time okay.

Young Brad kicks both their asses.

#32 Posted by DRE7777 (398 posts) - 3 years, 4 months ago

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA this is awesome. Ryan seemed so timid, and it was sooo obvious he was reading everything he was saying lol.

Also BLOND HAIR haha.

One last thing. Compared to the normal fun loving, lets have a good time while talking about video games, energy that they usually have here on GB, they seem down and depressed in these videos. Comparing that Jeff and Ryan to the Jeff and Ryan now is the best explanation yet for why GB is so awesome.

Ryan Davis
