Most of us will have heard of him, one of the vloggers from the relatively early days.   Well, TotalBiscuit died.  Bowel cancer from 2014, turned terminal the following year and he died yesterday.

I did not particularly like his vlog style, but he always caused a discussion.  Name a game, he has probably done a vlog on it.  No more cycnical Brit.

Here's a vlog from 2011 as an example.

Loved his videos and all his reviews. He always did great for the gaming community and would always be one of the first to stand up against game designers when they did something stupid. Also loved the podcast he did and I hope to see it continue but it won’t be the same without one. Rest in peace TB. Thoughts to family and friends of him

Also loved his content, one very recognisable voice I'll miss.
