Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
Multiverse thing was a letdown but horror aspect was very good though it would had been better were it an R-rated movie. Overall it was decent and a bit of fresh air for being a bit tonally different. [7/10]

Everything Everywhere All At Once
A bit slow start but once the gear shifts it's flooring all the way. It's so good that I don't want to talk about it and just say go watch it without having any expectations. I and the crowd have never had such a laugh in cinema. [10/10]

Top Gun
Following someone to a bathroom. Creepy.
Classic soundtrack and some good moments but aged pretty poorly. [6/10]

Aya and the Witch
Goro's bold move to make a 3D Ghibli movie pays off. Sure the characters get a bit used to but I was surprised how more expressive and personality characters had. I was really liking this movie but then it ended. Bummer. [8/10]

January
The Last Guardian

Total: 1

@mbun yeah. Bandai Namco has been known doing all these DLC stuff on previous Tales games already do not surprising and it is indeed scummy but I still enjoyed the game a lot nevertheless.

If you like to do side quests. Lost Judgment.
Main story is good but 1st game's story was better IMHO. Side stories are best than ever from RGG Studio.
Tales is very good and if you hope to grind to overlevel, it ain't happening but you can choose difficulity and save anytime.
Both have fun combat but I played Tales mostly in auto and input some specials or controlled if needed and still had a blast.
There are lots of skits. I like them but some might not though luckily you can skip them.
Both are easily top 5 or even 3 on my list.
So depending what you prefer you should go with it.

Justice For All might be the weakest of the Trilogy when compared to other two especially when 1st game got a new case when it was released here and takes advantage of DS.
But even with only 4 cases the last one is easily one of the best cases.
And cases also started to be more beefier excluding 1st case of each game. Capcom has many characters that are basically a stereotype but they are so well presented. Might not vibe with everyone but they are fun.

Great Ace Attourney and its sequel finally getting translated and released in the West.
All that is left is translate Investigations 2 and release the rest on current consoles.

Akiman designed characters for Star Ocean. Did they also do the previous one? I remember SO4 also had such a good 2D art but when they turn them to 3D they look nowhere near in style which is a huge bummer since we S-E has great 3D designers unless they are solely working on FF franchise.
Wasn't some at tri-Ace devs of Tales of Phantasia? Would be nice to make in-game artstyle more like what Tales of... games are like instead of 3D look they have been doing since 4.

I have not much experience in arcades since we had them before I had any spending money and they are all pretty much gone here but during short youth time I experienced X-men vs Street Fighter which is still my favorite arcade experience. Also played Metal Slug 2, bit Sega Rally and Hydro Thunder.

Last few years though I got to play Initial D inside Subaru Impreza on hydraulics(not there anymore) which was fantastic, Mario and Sonic Olympics by running on actual threadmill, hit and flip the table on office/family game, various rythm/fighting games and many many more on my trips to Japan so I have been lucky to have tried some really cool stuff. Sadly missing some since my japanese is mostly from watching anime and I can't read any of the letters(which I need to at least improve to beyond basics).
Arcades are in dire situation again because of covid-19 but I hope there are places where people can keep enjoying them.

Lost Judgment
Main story is surprisingly shorter than I expected but it's still good even if I prefer the 1st game's story.
Majority that people hated in the 1st game got fixed or improved so there are less annoyance around. The side missions are solid but the school ones are good and great playoff doing all of them.
Really good characters again though some don't appear as much as I hoped.
Still one of the better games of the year and definitely worth playing.
[8 1/2]

This year was wild though. Sweden not making to playoffs and Canada's surprisingly weak games early on. Germany was doing great but sadly they still didn't get the medal. Last one was like 1952 but it does feel their team is going to be at top 8 more regularly from now on.
Even Kazakstan rose from the very bottom
