| Sad news indeed. His music was cherished by many (Defender of the Crown, Cannon Fodder 1/2 are notables that immediately spring to mind).

I updated his composer page above to reflect this terrible event.

Cannon Fodder?
Oh no!
War will never again be so much fun without him!
May he rest in peace.
With the intro music of Cannon Fodder sure he created something very funny and enjoyable.Last edited by Raffaele on 06-Mar-2007 at 03:45 AM.

| This is very sad news.
Looking at the list of his work I have to say that he was a mastermind.
May he rest in peace.

| Wow. I didn't realise that all my favourite Amiga game soundtracks were written by the same person. Very, very sad.

| Absolutely gutted, an excellent musician on the Amiga and other formats.
R.I.P. Richard.

| Sad news indeed.
I never knew his name before now, but he was one of my all-time favourite Amiga composers and inspirations.
My sympathies go out to his family and friends.
Kind regards,

| Here is a little YouTube video that is a nice way for some people to remember Richard by as he does feature quite heavily in it.
