Weekly Report: Freebies Alert!

Seems like GameSpot has been hit with the free birds and beta bees. GameSpot community members are bound to get something this week! Due to the content overload I have skipped a variety of categories in the community report this week. This means the report is primarily about things you can get for being a part of the community!

Announcements

- GameSpot Webby's Update: As of this morning we were at 3% [UPDATED as of 11pm PT] to our goal thanks so much everyone. We have come so much closer to our goal because of YOU! Keep pioneering by getting your friends to vote, pass along the instruction link: www.tinyurl.com/gamespotwebby . You and your friends will receive some freebie GameSpot profile level points for taking the time to vote.
