I think a small recap about their influence on NG should also be added below their memorial.

Rest in Peace, Ben :(

I have been visiting NG since 2002. Yes back in those days when everything was ridiculously crappy. But there was entertainment as well. Have respect for the contributers.

Is there anyway we can help to those affected by his death?

Ben,RIP.Hope you play in heaven happily

R.I.P. Ben .

So funny yet not funny.

although i never knew him or his series, still nobody deserves to die that young
rest in peace

Ben Spurgin and Bradley Nowell ... two great guys i know that died of heroine ,
so dont try drugs , you can smoke cigars or drink beers but no drugs ..
their very bad ....

R.I.P. Ben Spurgin
Bradley Nowell

i offer my sympathy ...

the guy made 'Pimp's Quest'! that's the first NG game i ever played! he's a freaking legend! imgoing to play it again as a tribute for the first time in years! i don't care if it sounds 'douchebaggie'!

Ben was back at it almost a decade later, with Stick Slayer IX on the way. He was only 31.

I kinda, liked pimp's quest always wanted an new ;_;

I've been going to this sight since summer of 2000, and I remember lots of the old artists and their work. He definitely stands out as one of the better ones. My best wishes go out to his family and fans!

R.I.P Ben

He will be missed, im just mad some people are giving bad reviews on the Pimp game not knowing why it is front paged again.

People are getting stupider and stupider. Why haven't we learned that heroin kills people yet, when we see tons of great people dying from it. Let this be a lesson to all shooters.

Ben was a great animator, still remember the stick slayer series and the vs xiaou xiaou spin offs. He was a sound guy too, you could email him and he'd reply and offer help. I think it's a shame people are so cynical about this post and the guys memory. He's from an era when NG was going places, paved the way for you young assholes. I think a memorial page would be a good idea.

Wow... Rest in peace... I'm sure you make more friends on heaven.... ^^

He was so awesome. :'(
