Very sad news, i remember hearing his voice for the first time on PSU and thinking.. That guy was born for this/radio. Our paths never really crossed, but he was always a member of the community that i had a lot of respect for.

RIP Marsman. Every one of us from PS1 and PS2 will miss you dearly. Condolences to the family; he was a good man to many, many people. I'm proud to have part in a community like this that comes together when times get tough. Marsman's smiling on the other side as we stand here, I bet.

PlanetSide was my first job in the games industry, and so the community itself was the inspiration behind any success that I ever had. Mars and Hamma were a big part of that. I'm proud of what we did together, and I'm glad that we live in a time when that work will always be available online. I may light a candle and listen to some Ask the Devs tonight.

RIP, Marsman. Thank you for the support and friendship.

Very well said -- also, I'm still glad to see you around these parts ol' Vic. You too were a huge part of the PS1 community and I still miss you and Eric (ProfChaos) to this day. Hope all is well with you.

Terribly sorry to hear this. I remember hearing his voice and opinion when I first learned about the Planetside sequel. My condolences to his family, friends, and clan.

I mentioned this on Twitter but I will be playing some old school AGN clips starting at around 7:45PM CDT tomorrow before Community Clash so be sure to tune in.

Even stumbled across an early episode with Dave Georgeson aka SmokeJumper.

Wow....'ole Marsman. I can't think of Planetside, or PSU, or anything without Marsy. I had the honor and privileage to work with him during Planetside 1. He had created these fake news sounders for AGN. I was so blown away, he had written this entire script, added sound effects, it sounded like a news conference for CNN! I was completely floored, and wanted to meet the man who put the White in Barry White

As I got to know him, I saw a man with a deep passion for the community, an extremely talented leader, and a friend, with a heart of Gold.

Marsman and I used to exchange ideas, and pass sounders back and forth. I created these little bumpers for their show hosted by Hamma and Marsman. I remember one of them said "Hamma and Marsman...even their names....sound like virgins." It was such a joy for me to be able to work with these guys, to meet them in Florida, truly some of my fondest memories.

My heart goes out to Hamma and Jennyboo, to the Dragonwolves, to Manitou, to all of the wonderful members of the Planetside community. What I will remember from Marsman...besides his amazing pipes of course, was what he did for the community. What he did for people he never even met, what he did for me, and what he did for you. Rest in peace my friend, you will be dearly missed. Thank you for everything.

This news ruins my day. The man had a voice of silk and a passion for a game and community that is as dear to my heart as anything. This bond unites all of us, and when that bond is broken in such a tragic way, it leaves a hole that cannot be filled. Thank you for everything you did for us Marsman. This community lives on because of you, and in turn, you will live on in this community.

RIP

I never knew him but from all the posts, he seemed like a remarkable gentleman.

My condolences to his family and friends for their loss.
