Gordon Hall, en ret prominent figur hos Rockstar generelt, og som grundlagde Rockstar Leeds der var i front på udviklingen af blandt andet Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, er gået bort.
Dette kan GamesIndustry slå fast, eftersom udviklere i og omkring Yorkshire-området begyndte at snakke internt om det i forgårs. Der findes endnu ingen direkte dødsårsag, men han blev bare 51 år gammel.
"Gordon was simply brilliant to be around, incredibly motivating and ever positive. His pursuit of excellence was staggering and he formed a great, trusting bond with those who chose to work (hard) alongside him. As a close friend, he was truly inspirational and socially speaking a real energetic one-off who could endlessly entertain at the drop of a hat, holding everyone in the palm of his hand. Gordon will be very sadly missed," siger Martyn Brown fra Five Aces Publishing og medstifter af Team 17, som har samarbejdet med Hall igennem årene.
Vi kondolerer naturligvis, og sender positive tanker til hans nærmeste.
