Tom Clancy died today :( no cause of death was announced but he was 66 years old.

Here's to the guy who's writing inspired Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon and several other gaming franchises!

RESPECT!

Oh wow that's terrible, RIP and thanks for all the memories :(

Read about this earlier today. Very sad, the guy wasn't very old.

I was a big fan of his books, he wrote some great stuff.

Who else thinks the cause of death was a heart attack after seeing how bad Splint Cell Blacklist sold? Pretty big coincidence that he happened to die around this time.

I really love his books and the games and movies he helped inspire. What an American he was.

Didnt like the games that were named in his honour but i am not going to hate him for it. He probably died because he had to play through one of those terrible games for promotional purposes.

Well I hope his family cope ok with his death and what not.

Splinter Cell is the game that made me a gamer. Sad to hear this, TC games xbox era where the best in the industry.

I was never really a big fan,but it's still sad. Rest in peace.

Locking.
