Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Community Spotlight! Well E3 is officially over and the site is a buzz at the various announcements and reveals from the event. Many thanks to the Giant Bomb and GameSpot staff for providing this site and its users with wonderful and great coverage of the E3 2012.  Before things got crazy however Matthew Rorie was crowned the victor of the Golden Duder Award. Even though E3 is over head on over to the 3rd Annual E3 Banner Competition and marvel at the works of art the community created for the event.

Wonderful Wiki

So here's a large list of the big games from E3 2012 that a lot of users included in their "Most Anticipated" lists. Some have a crazy amount of detail in their wiki pages for games still not out yet. Then of course we have a couple of pages recently edited by the community. Also the alias "Door Guy has been added to Jake Kazdal's wiki person page, for obvious reasons of course. 

Lovable Lists 

Many of these lists are a result of user ThatFrood's Listapalooza Community Effort to create a list of the community's best of show list. If you haven't join yet do so here! Beyond that we have to different competing lists chronicling games that exemplify why this is the year of the bow. 

Best of Blogs

 We have a slew of blogs related to E3 and various interpretations of what the announcements mean for games in the future. TurboMan has created a video of the worst moments from E3 2012. Beyond that the users are still gaming. User jakob187 discusses why he doesn't think that Diablo III is that hard. EpicSteve and AhmadMetallic offer two different viewpoints about Max Payne 3. User Hailinel has created a blog series listing the best and most memorable final bosses he has ever experienced. Video_Game_King recently play a couple of "girl games" and lampoons their quality. Finally ahoodedfigure discusses why he thinks samurai Warriors 3 is so awesome. 

Fantastic Forums

 GB user Fattony120000 has started an effort to created HD archives of the GB chat during the E3 2012 Press Conferences. Comment on the game that took your E3 2012 Game of the Show and what you think of the Year of the Bow.
