2007-03-07 10:49:36 A Gaming Legend Has Died :(

The name Richard Joseph might not mean much to a lot of people but the theme songs from Cannon Fodder, Sensible World Of Soccer and GODS (to name but a few) will certainly trigger memories. He passed away on Sunday after a short battle with lung cancer, he was 53. :(

I didn't know the guy personally but his work was an integral part of my gaming life for a long time and he definitely inspired many people to get involved in music. I hope Microsoft see fit to dedicate the XBLA release of SWOS to his work. RIP.
