I’ll be looking for other opportunities so please reach out if you have something available. I have 14 years of experience working in games media on written, audio, and video content.

I’m no longer at Gamurs after being made redundant. There was an amazing team of people working on content and editorial in the Sydney office, unfortunately there is now no one left.
It is sad that an Australian-based company isn't interested in supporting local writers anymore.

How hard can it possibly be to design a ticketing website that works. Or are they all having a competition to see who can make the worst purchasing experience.

[Luke Lawrie @LukeLawrie]

The Flash was fun, but the CGI in it was wildly inconsistent, mostly bad.

It's been all Diablo IV for me over the past 3 weeks. Finally got through the campaign (again) and now on to end game. Big thanks to @Blizzard_ANZ for the support, and inviting me to the launch. It's been a tiring, but fun couple of weeks.

[Luke Lawrie @LukeLawrie]

Here is me with our first #DiabloIV review.

[Gamepur @GamepurSite]

Diablo IV not only delivers another fantastic entry to the series, but also sets a new benchmark. https://t.co/vtsBUsC5Og

[Luke Lawrie @LukeLawrie]

We had a great review by @Wheels1993 go up for Street Fighter 6. It highlights why accessibility options in games are so important, and dives into the highs and lows of this latest entry. Please give it a read.

[Gamepur @GamepurSite]

A bright, vibrant, and mechanically deep game that proves fighting games are for everyone. https://t.co/Rsb2X7CXf9

[Luke Lawrie @LukeLawrie]

I'll have a review for #DiabloIV up on Gamepur next week, right after I catch up on some much needed sleep 🥱

[Rod Fergusson @RodFergusson]

To all the #DiabloIV reviewers who's play time is up, and your characters and progress deleted - sorry!

But can't wait to see you on launch day!

Only 6 days till Early Access!

I felt compelled to write about Aloy being gay for the entire time I was playing Burning Shores. I think I finally managed to nail my feelings on the head with this piece and I'm so pleased that it has a home on Gamepur. https://t.co/JqxIzoZLXg

[Luke Lawrie @LukeLawrie]

Had the chance to play a bit of Redfall recently. Found the combat a bit easy, but everything else seemed about on point from what you'd expect in an Arkane game.

Where's Blade when you need him? https://t.co/FEDaOJvFoh

Got to spend a few hours with Atomic Heart. Had fun with what I played so far. I have concerns about the outdoor sections, and also the main character you play as talks like a meathead.

Thank you to everyone in our lives that helped us this year. Whether it was filling our fridge with cooked meals, helping us go on needed getaways, or checking in to see how we were. Thank you so much!

Earlier this year as I sat in a hospital room I received the worst news of my life. TJ, my best friend, my absolute favourite person in this world had just been diagnosed with cancer. Despite trying to stay positive things got worse, as there were complications with her surgery

[Luke Lawrie @LukeLawrie]

This week she finally finished her treatment. I’m so proud of her and in awe of how brave she has been trying to fight this. She is by far the strongest person I know. There is still a lot left to go at the start of the new year, but this was a big accomplishment.
