Well, it seems odd to air an edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight the day after Christmas, but as a wise man once said "That's the way the cookie crumbles." No matter, I hope all of you found a way to celebrate the holiday, if you celebrate, it a manner that was safe and fun for you and those you love. A little happiness and cheer goes a long way; I know that all to well. This week, the Spotlight is opening the floodgates and is welcoming ALL USERS to share their GOTY lists and blogs for inclusion. If I missed your blog or list, just drop a comment and I will promise to include them next time! I traditionally continue hosting user-made GOTY content until two weeks AFTER the staff content has subsided! So, with that in mind, let's jump into the site-related housekeeping!
- Due to pandemic-related production issues, the Giant Bomb tracksuits will be delayed. Social Imprints, Giant Bomb's merchandise partner, expects the delay to only be around one to two weeks. If you would like to get into contact about possibly cancelling your order, please use the link.
- Everyone has until 12/31 to pick up a 30 day free trial of Giant Bomb premium! For those of you that have friends that might be interested in checking out the site and its back catalog, this is a perfect opportunity for them!
- This time last year, Giant Bomb embarked on a journey to create a list that definitively ranked the worst songs of the 1980's before crowning a king of crap. So, by popular demand, the Giant Bomb staff plan to do the same with music from the 1990's!
- Finally, as I have been saying for the past couple of weeks, Giant Bomb's GOTY Coverage is delayed until January.
GOTY 2020
Author's Note: After a long delay, I finally got around to reviewing and compiling some, but obviously not all of the user-created lists on the site. If I missed your list or blog, PLEASE drop a link to it using the comments section and I will happily showcase it next week!

I bought my mother a Switch Lite and when she got her first game she decided to lick the cartridge after saying "I saw an internet guy do this, so, I have to know if it's true." Merry Christmas @giantbomb!
