Welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight! I, @zombiepie, am honored to be your host as we look back at the best community-created works from the previous week. With the warmer weather starting to kick into high gear, we are edging perilously closer towards the perennial "Summer Game Drought!" However, that does not mean the site will stop belting out awesome content. As many of you are already aware, Jess and Jan wrapped up another successful season of Run for the Hills! If you are wondering what other shows can fill the void until the third season, remember to check out the Programming Schedule and Show Notes page which gets updated at the start of every week!
In terms of pleasant surprises, Rorie went ahead and published a review on the site for Horizon Forbidden West, but you'll have to catch it on the game's user reviews section. If you have been asking for ore written-based staff content, then this should be right up your alley.
Finally, some of you have been asking about the state of the Giant Bomb newsletter. If you have not received one in a while, be aware, the newsletter has not gone out in a while. The site recently switched email providers and the marketing emails aren't set up yet to send a newsletter. Rorie revealed on the Discord that RedVentures is still warming up the IP address for the newsletters which means he has to send emails every day for 20 days to a steadily increasing number of people. The good news is that there should be some new newsletters from staff in a few weeks, but this new system has taken a few months to set up. With that in mind, let's jump into the Spotlight!

It had many things that never happened. And the Game Boy micro.
Xbox 360 also debuted but only had like 5 games playable at the booth, which was kinda worrying. It turned out OK.
