Abnormal Mapping 72: The Game of the Year 2017 Spectacular Spectacular

Hello everyone and welcome to the very last Abnormal Mapping of
2017! The year is over, we're all bundled up in the tepid cold of
this global warming reality playing whatever we decided to get
done over holiday break, and that means it's time for us to bring
to you the lengthy catalogue of games we played in this hell year
of two thousand seventeen. 


In this THREE (3) [III] hour podcast we have an array of music
for you to enjoy during this down week between observed days off.
We'll also run down our favorite and least favorite games played
in this year, along with some special guests.


A few notes: you can find our episode for the music from games we
played for the first three months of the year on Abnormal Mapping
65. The Hellblade article we reference in this episode can be
found here. 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!


To support our shows, suggest topics, and vote on games, please

Special guests this episode include Jen Unkle, Nate
Ewert-Krocker, Ryan Persaud, Allen Ibrahim, Amr Al-Aaser, and
Heather Alexandra. Big thank you to everyone, see you in 2018!
