ClayMeow Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Tom Clancy has passed away at age 66. Doesn't seem like they released a cause yet. If you don't know who Tom Clancy is... please don't procreate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheGamer11 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Sad news. Probably one of my favourite writers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prunes Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 What a shame. And at such a young age. He sure has contributed to newer literature. RIP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClayMeow Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 He hasn't just contributed to literature, he has contributed to entertainment in general - the movies and video games based upon his books are some of the best there are. Hopefully the new Jack Ryan movie and upcoming Rainbow Six game do him proud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bp9801 Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Oh man, Tom Clancy was one of the pioneers of military fiction. An absolutely insane amount of works, and like Clay mention, video games and movies. The man co-founded Red Storm Entertainment, which made the likes of Rainbow Six (Raven Shield was awesome until Ubisoft futzed around with it too much) and Ghost Recon. Such a sad day for for fans of his work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott P Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 I loved his earlier works, but lost interest with his later ghostwritten ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Never read his books but I remember the first "Tom Clancy" game I played as a kid was SSN (submarine warfare game) and it KICKED ASS. RIP T.C.! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
