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 community-made offerings from the previous week. It was a rather chill week as the staff continue their weekly deluge of live streams for our entertainment. Just as a friendly reminder to those who continue to ask, all signs point to the staff not returning to the office before the end of the year. While that may sound like a bummer, CBSi is taking all of the appropriate pre-cautions to ensure the safety of their employees. Given the circumstances, I think we can at the very least respect their intent. With that in mind, let's jump into the site-related housekeeping!
- The French Abby parody account on Twitter is still pretty great.
- In response to the ballooning amount of emotes, you might have noticed a new interface for adding emotes to chat. If you have any issues with this new interface don't forget to file a report on the "Bug Reporting" Board!
- CORRECTIONS: I made an error last week in my joke about Suikoden Successor Eiyuden Chronicle! The game I wanted to compare it to was Unsung Story: Tale of the Guardians.

We got a tick up on both the Grohl Toll™ (thanks to QOTSA) and the Jimi Things. So, it was a good night of drumming from @alex_navarro.

We have another friendly reminder to follow the Giant Beastcast and Bombcast Clips accounts on YouTube! This week I decided to pull two food-based debates that drew battlelines from the Giant Bomb staff.
Artwork
Akuma vs. Jeff (By: @jearum)
Over on Twitter jearum is giving pixel art a go and this work of art is the byproduct of their first attempt! I have to say, it's an amazing warm-up, and hopefully you agree! Regardless, don't forget to use the link to support the artist in question!
