Oh man, I really enjoyed all of the games that Relic put out. Even Soulstorm heh. Reading this article really made me well up, I never met the guy, but I really enjoyed all the hard work he put into his games. Makes me sad that the GVRD has lost one of its greats.

Just more proof of why driving while inebriated is just plain dumb =[.

uuuhhg I have had people hold the wheel for me while I do other shit in my car. Not drunk, but likely just as distracted as if I had a shirt over my eyes. I guess you just don't think about it at the time how stupid it really is. Not doing that again.

not trolling but it always freaks you out when you read someone who has the same name as you dying.

Amazing by him as a final act to adjust the way that the impact would go after him, to give his wife and child a chance to continue on.

"...braked and swerved his Subaru wagon so that he would take the force of the head-on collision, saving his wife..."

what a fucking badass
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

This shouldn't be a sad thread, this should be a happy thread. Accidents happen all the time, stupid happens all the time and tragic deaths happen all the time, but it's very rare that something with that caliber of badassery as this man pulled of with only a split second to make the decision happens. That is what should be remembered.

WOW!!! That's one of the most harrowing things I have ever seen. Shame it's not shown on network TV in the UK at prime time. So all the chav idiots would see what they are and what we think of them.

Jesus!

I did it too. When I was younger I used to drive stupidly unsafely all the time. Then about 6 years ago I had an accident because I was driving way too fast while it was dark and raining. Thankfully nothing bad happened apart from completely destroying a car but it could have.

I felt really bad reading this story cause that's probably the first accident of these girls too, and instead of them I saw stupid me 6 years ago driving carelessly and trusting an equally retarded friend to steer while I take off my shirt. Thank god I've never driven drunk or high.

It may sound obvious to many people smarter than I was but don't fucking wait to have your first accident to start driving safely. One is enough to ruin your life or someone else's. When I read the sentence about his pregnant wife I had to close my eyes for a few seconds. You don't want to be the one responsible for this.

RIP, always tragic when a life is lost due to the incapacity of rational act among human beings.

Jesus, that girl is an idiot, can't dance around that. Changing your sweater and having a friend grab the wheel, while driving? Maybe it's time a law was passed requiring all cars to be fitted with an alcohol lock.

I won't comment on her deserving sentence, as I'm too emotional for that right now.
Trying is the first step towards failure, and hope is the first step towards disappointment!

edit: i think the misleading part might be due to my crappy english ^^ somehow in my head when i read it i think it means he was murdered, but i guess this might be my mistake? -_-


It doesn't have to be murder to kill someone. Depending on the law it'll probably be some sort of negligent homicide/manslaughter or something.

Semantics really.

If the person who caused the death can be found to have taken less precautions in undertaking an activity than a reasonable person would have, then recklessness can be considered the 'intent' behind manslaughter.

That's my understanding, in any case, and I'd bet that this can fall under it.

These things are just soo sad

Some people just do not get how dangerous driving is. I will drive past more stupid drivers than I can count on my hands every day on my daily activities. And none of them will learn that what they are doing is stupid until they themselves experience the results of their stupidity. No matter how many of those graphical ads you place on TV, you will still get people who think that it will never happen to them and will continue to do stupid things. Its just pure idiocy, and what is soo frustrating about it is that an idiot is unaware that he/she is an idiot.

My condolences to his friends and family. He made a Hero move by swerving the car to take the hit himself, I like to think he knows that he saved his wife and unborn child.

Intoxicated drivers are IMBA, there is no counter.

My sympathy goes out to the victims, I hate it when people get hurt from stupid, completely avoidable crap like this. It didn't have to happen, they were just in the path of the hurricane.

That being said, I see no reason to hate on the drivers of the Blazer. What, you've never done stupid shit in your life? You've never been really stupid for a moment and felt really relieved when it turned out alright anyway? This was probably one of those moments, things just didn't turn out alright.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?
