Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight and I, @zombiepie, am once again honored to be your host as we look back at the best user-created offerings from the last week! I know this is something many do not want to hear, but as Rorie mentioned during the last two co-op community corners, all signs point to the staff not going back to the office before the end of summer. I know for many, watching the staff return to their normal routine with studio-quality videos is something people have been asking for, but these are extraordinary times. Please, be kind and polite to the staff as they try new things and attempt to make the best of the incredible situation they are in right now. Also, let's not forget, the amount of content that is being posted to the site has increased dramatically since the lockdown, and that's worth remarking upon as a community. Regardless, let's jump into the site housekeeping!
- The Deadly Premonition 2: A Blessing in Disguise Quick Look was pulled due to audio issues.
- The user-created simultaneous video player was updated to include the most recent Minecraft stream!
- Corrections:The "Caravella Method" in Bioforge specifically refers to picking up a particular two items at once and saving 2 minutes and does NOT involve backflipping.
