Stellar Blade’s combat takes a lot from Sekiro, so why does it feel different? Stellar Blade is a fun action game, except when you try to play it like Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Image credit:Shift Up, Sony Interactive Entertainment, FromSoftware, VG247 I know exactly what you’re thinking after reading this headline. Why would you go into one game expecting it to play like some other one you like?

Tekken 8 review: Back(dash), and better than ever Tekken 8 is a faster, hyper, and fuller package than before. A must-grab for fighting enthusiasts. Image credit:VG247 I do my best to create a 1-to-1 recreation of Margaret Thatcher in the Tekken 8 avatar creator for 20 minutes, before giving up and heading into an online lobby at 11PM. There, I lounge at the beach and practice some combos before an American reviewer hops online and sits down at a cab....
