A sad day for the video game industry today as Mark Beaumont, Capcom’s Chief Operating Officer for North America and Europe, has tragically passed away due to heart attack.
A veteran in the games industry, Beaumont began his career at Atari in 1982 before serving other major publishing companies like Activision and Time Warner Interactive. Eventually, he landed a role at Midway in 1999 before moving to Capcom in 2005, heading up the company's publishing across North America, South America, and Europe before being promoted to the role of COO in April 2008 up to present.

Does it matter if the person wasnt so great, but to say cruel things like: Dead is Dead, or who gives a shit people die everyday so fuck him
Its Bad, you should respect the Death of Another, even if you dont know that person
People like you should die, and then others say that to you, how would you feel if your closest friend said: oh wel dead is dead
