It's time for your Friday wrap-up. Let's recap stuff that happened earlier this week and jump into some newer announcements, and then we'll feature the member spotlight and union of the week!

The Recap

　　We started off with the Monday report, but that actually happened on Tuesday due to the US holiday. But it did give you a chance to be prepared for a busy week in GameSpot's community! Then, from Tuesday through Thursday we featured 74 of your creative contributions. Let's do some math, shall we? On Tuesday we featured 27 blogs, plus Wednesday's 15 user videos, plus Thursday's 32 user reviews, which totals 74! That should give you something to read and watch this weekend.
