Luke Smith was a journalist who formerly worked for Kotaku and then became news editor at 1UP.com, where he achieved great internet fame as a member of the 1UP Yours podcast. Smith was infamous for his love of both Microsoft and Halo and was often called a fanboy by his peers and readers alike. However Luke's love of Halo was often displayed publicly by the man himself, unclusing a blog post in which he calls Halo his Mario, he also goes on to say "the Halo franchise is probably the only franchise in gaming that I care about".
As a journalist, although notorious for his "fanboy-esque" love of Halo, he was also known as a notoriously harsh and frank journalist, and thus was described as by Joystiq as "an honest writer and a fearless interviewer and, though a polarizing figure in many respects, he was a games journalist, and one of the few you could apply that title to without cracking a smile".
Thus it was no surprise when in April 2007 Smith joined Bungie Studios as a Writer in which he publishes the "Bungie Weekle Update" and hosts the often inconsitently timed "Bungie Podcast".
Along with Halo, Luke has also expressed love for Elite Beat Agents, Mega Man, Viva Pinata, and World of Warcraft--he is one of the few in the world to hold the Scarab Lord title.
Luke Smith's gamertag is TJ Scoot, and Bungie.net username is "lukems".
