I am narrative focused gamer 90% of the time. Monster Hunter: Wilds has a 9-10hr Campaign with a raft of characters all voiced and animated with extensive cut scenes…and when viewed solely as a narrative experience, it is exceptionally poor.

I’ve reviewed a few keyboards over the years and just when I think I have my favourite, another comes along to fill that much prized top spot.
Currently in the top spot is Logitech’s Pro X TKL Rapid keyboard, the subject of this write up.
The first thing you notice is the build quality. It’s a mix of sturdy plastic and aluminium with Firstly, it just feels nice to type on. I can touch type and typing on the keyboard just feels … comfortable and natural.

Starship Troopers: Extermination was in early access on PC in 2023 and was officially released to console and PC in Oct 2024. This 2024 release however resulted in it being sent into the wild with a fatal weakness.

Studio Santa Monica’s God of War from 2018 is one of my favourite games in recent memory (despite what the dear editor of this esteemed site thinks of it), which they deftly followed up with God of War Ragnarok.
