Today, the gaming community mourns the loss of one of the true legends and pillars of the industry.

Wed Mar 05 2008 3:00PMhe introduced me to worlds of imagination, where heroes were real and adventure around every corner - from fantastical cities to eerie dungeon, the world will have that little bit less magic in it, now that he is gone.

So sad, he should have rolled monk. They get much nicer saving throws.
Sucks to see a pioneer go...especially in a time where RPGS have so very few.
Thu Mar 06 2008 11:41AMThanks for your comments. I'm sure Gary will be in peace knowing that what he did spawned not just a revolution but a way of life.
