Man I just love all the fuckery going on in this video. Will love him forever.
I can't believe it's been five years. It's feels like yesterday when we had that incredibly sobering and tragic news.
And even now, every time I see Jeff I think of Ryan :(

don't worry It's a fun joke, it just means we love Ryan Davis :D
Ryan was the heart and best part of GiantBomb. I'm glad they're still successful. They're a strong, funny, creative, intelligent independent voice in gaming journalism. It's never been the same since Ryan passed, though, at least not for me.
That fucking pie toilet video is condensed joy, god damn he was a legend
I always feel like I missed the golden era of GB because I only started watching their stuff around 3 years ago but watching old stuff with Ryan in it is some of my favorite GB content.
He is missed.

I still don't have a podcast that gets me as randy as Jeff, Brad, Ryan, and Vinnie did on the GB of old.
It was just so fucking good. It might seem like a stupid thing to say, but modern Bombcast is way too focused on video games, and not enough on whether it would be worse to live in a world without Batman or a world without toast.

I woke up this morning with Lobstah Monstah stuck in my head and had to go and look it up before I did anything else today. Dude was made of funny.
It was, in fact I was going to quit making games altogether until he emailed me. I did a write up when the news hit that sums up just how much of an impact he made in my life: http://www.vertigogaming.net/blog/?p=2476
The duder to end all duders. I think about him and his passing often, I even remember exactly where I was when I read the awful news. The podcast surrounding his untimely exit is maybe my favorite in existence. Such a beautiful and joyously sad celebration of someone that left a massive impact on my life.
RIP NachoBoss.

I miss the dude, even little stuff like his way of purposely mispronouncing certain words. Always cracked me up.
I love this story. The CSD quicklook is something I go back to often, and CSD has become one of my favorite games! I'm glad you found success chubigans, because if not, then we wouldn't have CSD 2!
Fuck.
Still remember finding out at work and feeling physically ill. It's weird I guess, never met the guy but he was in my home more often than most of my best friends, ha.
Miss you, big guy.

I listened to every single APD/Bombcast until Ryan died, and then I didn't listen for months... I couldn't bring myself to do it. I've still never heard the tribute/goodbye the other guys did, and I probably never will.
Not sure if anyone has brought me more laughs per minute in my life than Ryan Davis. RIP NachoBoss. Good dude, great dude

I started watching Giant Bomb content just a few months before this happened off-and-on, but listening to how genuine and familial the reactions were after Ryan's death made me realize the site was something special. Surprised it's been five years already.
Everyone needs to be commended for how they've kept the site going strong ever since, though. I think Ryan would be happy with where they're at now.

I think Ryan would crack the fuck up at Jeff being on an actual panel at an anime convention.
Same for me. I would watch their stuff here and there but seeing them go through that tough time made me a fan till this day. I don't think there has been a day that goes by where I am not listening or watching something GB.
RIP, Ryan.
RIP Ryan
I remember where I was when I heard the news, i was crushed. So soon after his wedding too just added to his tragedy. I always wonder what his thoughts would have been about current gen.

Can't believe that it's already been 5 years.
He was such a strong personality that brought so much joy to whatever he did and he's sorely missed.

Best podcast host ever. Nothing will ever beat the classic Ryan, Jeff, Brad and Vinny lineup.
RIP Ryan.
RIP Ryan.
I've been watching the Infinite stream on Twitch a ton lately. Ryan was amazing in damn near every video. His personality continues to be unmatched in the industry. RIP
I would love to hear his reaction to Jeff and Dan starting an anime podcast. Miss you, big guy!
