On October 6, Gears of War composer Kevin Riepl tweeted that he thought someone āroofiedā him while out drinking. Heād blacked out. āSomethings effed up,ā he added. āLike literally. Something knocked me out.ā Within days, Riepl was on life support.
By the following day, Riepl was in the hospital from where he uploaded this photo. The game composer tweeted that all his tests came back normal, but was having an MRI to check if there were any issues with his heart.
Riepl is best known for his work scoring Unreal Tournament games, the first Gears of War and the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marines.

āLastly, I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your positive vibes, thoughts and prayers,ā Tracy added.
No word yet on what the cause is. Riepl is scheduled to go into surgery tomorrow night. Hereās hoping it is a success.
