Ryan Davis, co-founder of Giant Bomb and  former GameSpot editor, has passed away on July 3rd at the age of 34.

Giant Bomb has posted a piece about him, they have kind words regarding how awesome of a person he was:

“Obviously we’re all stunned over here. Ryan was a good friend to all of us. It’s odd to remember that, for someone who could be so acerbic at times, and despite knowing him for almost a decade, I honestly don’t recall ever actually being mad at him. He had an unconventional type of kindness that expressed itself more strongly the longer one knew him, and despite his teasing nature, he always managed to make his close friends feel loved when his attention turned towards you.”

Our thoughts and prayers go out to his friends, family and co-workers – his passing was definitely too soon.
