My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

I'm not sure if people care all that much, but whenever I visit this community I can't help but notice the fairly ugly icon and banner which is clearly AI generated.

Would it be worth updating these? Heck I can make something for the community if needed

I agree 100%, both look super ugly

As an alternative, there are tons of gamepad icons on freepik like this one that could be used as long as theres an attribution link in the community description.

Also here's a quick collage I screenshotted from steamdb, feel free to use it if there aren't any better ones by others:
