My Five Fantasies Fulfilled By Video Games!

Luke Reviews: Painkiller
There are certain names in gaming that come with baggage. Expectations. A promise. Painkiller is one of them. You do not reboot Painkiller unless you are ready to let players loose in a cathedral full of screaming horrors with weapons that look like medieval torture...

Why Can’t I Get Into Stalker 2? I Love This Sort Of Game Normally
This is doing my head in a bit. Because on paper, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl is exactly my sort of thing. Bleak Eastern European atmosphere. Survival mechanics. Harsh gunplay. No hand holding. A world that does not care if you live or die. That is my lane. I...

My Top 5, Most meh and 5 Worst Platinums on Playstation Titles
I didn’t set out to become a trophy hunter. Honestly, I used to think people chasing platinums were a bit mad. I’d finish a game, roll credits, maybe mop up a few easy trophies, then move on. Clean break. No obsession. That changed in 2024. Somewhere around that year,...

Luke Reviews: Tormented Souls 2
There are very few modern horror games that truly understand what made classic survival horror special. Not the surface-level stuff. Not the fixed cameras, not the tank controls, not the aesthetic cosplay of PS2-era grime and gothic corridors. I mean the feeling. The...

The Sheer Jump in quality between AC Unity and Syndicate needs to be studied

I don’t know who needs to hear this but it’s fine to replay old favourites instead of chasing the hot new thing

Luke’s Top Movies of 2025
Every year I sit down to write one of these lists and every year I realise I am wildly unqualified to rank anything. Not because I do not watch films. I do. I love them. I inhale them. But 2025 has been one of those strange years where instead of keeping up with the...
