That's quite a shocker. Way too young in any case.

whoa, not sure what to say.
not like we knew him personally but it does hit a lot closer to home. always loved his work and was genuinely saddened way back when when he got fired from id.
truly one of the greats :(

That's awful news. I was very fond of Steed and his work at id Software. Sad to hear someone this young had to go.

:( RIP. He did fantastic low poly modelling work for the Quake series. A fair amount of the tools documentation for the LEM community were written by him.

I just randomly found out :( I remember how he used to post on polycount.com back in the day, when it was exclusively a Quake site...And I never knew he worked on the Wing Commander games!
