Community News Update: Monday 9/23

Another weekend has gone by, hopefully everyone got to spend some time gaming. After all, a bunch of awesome titles came out last week. Did you pick up anything special?

What to look forward to.

Changes to GameSpot's Community Culture

To say that the events that took place on the site last week were "eye opening" would be an understatement. The community team has seen the writing on the wall for some time now and we are now able to implement many of the changes that are needed to keep this community a safe and great place to be. After all, we're just here to play right?

New GameSpot Beta Invites!

Make sure you're checking you inboxes, a second wave of beta invites for access to the new site will be coming later this week to a lucky group of GameSpotters. If you're interested in taking part in the beta, leave a comment below and you might just get on the list!

Community Spotlight

This week's GameSpot Member Spotlight shines on DraugenCP, a system wars member who recently participated in the Pedal to the Metal podcast (hosted by SWM). Go check it out!

A bit about him: "My name is Jesse, I'm 24 years old, and I chose to register on GameSpot many moons ago. Though my activity initially limited itself to reading articles and posting on the forums, I eventually began writing reviews and articles for the user section. Over the years I've developed my own style, approaching games and industry-related developments in a less conventional, more erudite fashion. I've recently graduated from university and am now looking to start my own company for correcting and translating texts."
