Ryan Davis was a cofounder of giantbomb.com. He died on the 3rd during his honeymoon.

He's been prolific in games press for a long time and will be missed by other members of the press, fans of the site, and developers of games.

Thanks for the clarification. So weird. Was this just a random thing? Does anyone know?

No cause of death has been given.

The common speculation floating around is a heart attack, but there isn't any solid evidence I know of for this.

No one has come out in regards to the cause of death. Tragic loss :(
