God Damn.

Jigen was a definite icon around these parts. I truly considered him a 'friend' at least as much as you can consider someone you talk to online. hell, we even tried launching a new chat room together.

He will truly be missed by all.

My sincerest condolences go out to you and your family.

Raise one for Jigen.

A great fucking guy, taken too soon.

I know Clint was very sick... it is always a tragedy to lose someone, but let us just hope he is now resting peacefully in a better place. I lost my older brother less than two years ago, also due to an illness that hit very suddenly.

My condolences to his family and friends. If you ever need to talk to someone about it, even just to vent, please feel free to email me... you are all in my thoughts tonight, and know he was very well thought of here.

God I wish this was a joke.

This is unbelievably sad.
Another hardcore Neo fan passes away.
I really enjoyed his posts, and I am sad I didn't know him better the way some of you do.
He seemed like someone that a lot of people truly felt was a close friend despite the impersonal nature of this forum and all the drama.
My deepest sympathies go out to Clint's family and close friends, and those who knew him really well on here. God bless.

Does anyone know what his favorite Neo game was?
I say we pick a day and time, and log off from the site just to play it and remember him.

He was a really cool dude and he'll be missed.

oh my god, no.

words fail me, I don't know what to say. Clint was such a fantastic member of these forums, and I'd talked to him a bit the few times I've been to #neo-geo. It pretty much goes without saying that this place will never be the same without him around.

:( crying crying

my condolences go out to you and your family, Jana.

I'm lost at words.......

Jigen was a really cool dude.I remember him from the old Chat-Room.

It's always sad to see people check out way before their time.....

Rest in Peace,Jigz.

I cant belive it ..... I really cant ...I am actually crying ... I have spoken to Clint on many occasions and have sent him promo Lupin stuff even just because he was a cool guy He helped me with re-wiring my supergun for AES pads by making me diagrams , he enthusiasticly came up with numerous Ideas for the Portable Dreamcast project I was working on .

My heart is torn at the moment and I just dont know what I can say or do to make this feeling go away , Clint was a GREAT guy and I just cant belive that he is actually gone , I wish I could have met him in person .

Rarely do I look up to people younger than myself but Clint was an exception .


Oh god this is a sad sad day

something needs to be done in his honor .

Rest In Peace my good friend I will always remember you .

I will never be able to watch Lupin the same way again, or play Rez without thinking of Clint. I wouldn't say we were "friends" as I never got to meet him in person, but he was a great guy and I have a lot of respect for him.

Clint, see you at the crossroads.. frown

im very sad to hear this. i didnt talk to him much, but he was a great guy when we did have words. He even took time to help me in PSO earlier this year. Clint and his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Rest in peace, man.

Sad :(

I just spoke to the kid a couple of days ago, hoping that he would rehabilitate and make good use of the used Neo control pad I gave him. Hopefully he was able to enjoy those videos passed on to him in his last few moments as well.

Yet another reminder of just how fragile our lives really are and an inspiration to make each day count because it may just be our last.

My deepest condolences go out to his family.

Sincerely,

Mikhail

Don't own it.
Well, seeing as how many here wouldn't, I'm wondering if everyone would be interested in simply organizing a collective log-out, or the web equivalent of a moment of silence. This is really terrible news for everyone here. We should do something special to remember him by.

Even though I didn't know him that well, I was always impressed by how much he 'walked the walk' here at NG.com. He played his games, was cool to noobs, even confronted the scum of NGF. He seemed to wring every ounce of available joy out of life despite his disabilities. It's honestly inspiring. Makes me realize that I should be living life in the same manner instead of bitching about a crummy job or all the other mundane crap we let interfere with being happy.

Amen to that, Loopz.

I always saw Jig as a nice and cool guy. It saddens me to hear about this... way too young to be taken out of the ball game. I wish his soul the best. Rest In Peace

Oh My god..I'm in shock.. crying

I've been sending him picks of Japanese MVS carts for this project he was doing..
<a href="http://www.neo-geo.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=18;t=009005" target="_blank">http://www.neo-geo.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=18;t=009005</a>

He never responded..I would of never thought...oh man..

Maybe someone here knew about the project he was doing and could complete it in the memory of him..Giving him credit for it....in memory.
