The 2018 Game of the Year Variety Show Abnormal Mapping

    • Video Games

We’re finally here at the end of the longest year in the history of long, bad years. We barely played any games this year, so pulling together our favorite songs was a mighty task, but we weren’t going to let you walk away empty-handed. Also, let’s be real, it’s way harder to find ten good games than games with good music. Good game music is easy. You here me, Capcom?? EASY! THERE’S NO EXCUSE FOR MEGA MAN TO SOUND LIKE THIS!
*ahem*
Please enjoy these hours of music and best of lists, and I hope everyone has a great end to the year from hell. May the hell be lessened and the games better in 2019. Thanks everyone, for everything.
A few notes: you can find our episode for the music from games we played for the first six months of the year on Abnormal Mapping 79. Also, to enjoy this episode in higher quality than our hosting can support, please consider listening to it on YouTube if you're sensitive to that sort of thing!
As always you can find Abnormal Mapping on iTunes, Stitcher, and Google Play!
All of our shows, and this entire network, is Patreon supported! Please consider pledging to keep Abnormal Mapping going into 2019! Thank you so much!
