Gaming Union's had quite the rise into the video games industry so far eh? We've flown around the world to E3, TGS, and GamesCom; we have stacks of review games cluttering up our selves; we've interviewed so many industry greats, from Yoichi Wada, to Todd Howard; we've even secured investors, a recent big win for Gaming Union that we didn't talk much about.

Not to mention I'm very proud that we've put together a great network of websites, and if I do say so myself, some of the best podcasts available to gamers. We have one amazing team of staffers that I'm happy to call my friends, and with all this in mind, it's very hard for me to say good bye.

It was a tough decision, but today I'm writing to announce that I've officially resigned from Gaming Union, voluntarily, to pursue a particular dream of mine. I don't have any details to share today on what I'm doing now, as things are still coming together, but I'll talk about them in the near future if all goes well (I'll throw them on twitter.com/kylewynen); and to clarify, my plans do not relate to the video games industry.

Rest assured, and I'm sure many of you naturally would, but no less Gaming Union is in extremely capable hands, and will continue to rock its way further into the industry, and further grow the community here. Many may not know it, but Darryl and I have been equal partners until now, myself running North America affairs while Darryl heads up the European side. Gaming Union will soon choose another to head up North America affairs due to my departure, however that person has not yet been chosen, so look forward to an announcement on that in the coming weeks.

As for the podcasts, make sure to listen to the next episode of Final Fantasy Union on Tuesday, July 20th, as it also marks my last episode as host of the show, and my bittersweet departure from all of Gaming Union's podcasts. I'm actually in the process of editing this episode over the weekend, make sure to listen for the bonus ending after we say good bye!

And on that note, thanks for the support over the years everyone, it's been quite the adventure, and your support motivated me to do my part to make it all happen!

Good luck Kyle! Thanks for all of the good times and podcasts! We'll all miss you incredibly! You have been an awesome host and even though I haven't been listening since episode 1 of FXN, it's obviously been an amazing journey! Good luck dude!

As the person who set Gaming Union up alongside Kyle, I'd like to personally thank him for everything he's done in regard to Gaming Union. I think it's safe to say that we wouldn't be here without his support.

I'm sure I speak for everyone when I wish you all the best with your future endeavours.

Good luck Kyle ! Im sure we're all sad that you're leaving but you've done a great job up until now and I'm sure it will continue that way after you leave. I hope you find whatever you're looking for. Farewell.

I can't believe that all of this was born from one single podcast. It's pretty incredible when you think about it. Your departure marks the end of an era for all who listened to even a single episode of any of the various podcasts recorded over the years. Farewell Kyle. I hope you find fulfillment and joy in whatever you decide to do during your post-GamingUnion career.

Don't be a stranger now. I hope you decide to keep a least a bit of a presence on the site.

P.S. - Let me know if you're still going to attend the Toronto Distant Worlds Concert!!!!!

I'm repeating myself here, but thank you for everything you have done over the past few years and for giving my the opportunity to work as staff. You will definitely be missed here, but at the same time you are moving forward in your life towards what you want to do.

Take care, and best of luck in the future!

The answer : YESS !! (This pic doesn't belong to me too XD )

Wow. I'm not around GU as much as I used to be. However, Kyle, you and Laur were the two that brought me here, and I really appreciate that. Best of luck to you in your endeavors, and I know I'll talk to you soon. If you ever need anything, let me know.

"You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."

Good Luck, Kyle! And don't forget about us. Your always welcome at GU! *Cactuar Salutes Kyle*
