| 1/23/25 | The best videogame soundtracks of 2024 - Meena Shamaly's top 21 tracks from 13 games | One of my favourite things each year is when Meena Shamaly host of Game Show on ABC Classic sends me the big list of tracks that have made a massive impact.

So much so that every year I’ve asked, and this is the third time we’ve done this I say give me a top ten, and I get no joke double or triple that and here they all are plus bonus honourable mentions. Twenty one pieces of music from thirteen different games.It's a lot of fun so take a step back through 2024's best soundtracks in this massive special episode.Pocket Casts: You can now rate the show on Pocket Casts, give us a five star review learn more by heading here https://pocketcasts.com/ratingsApple Arcade: Enjoy unlimited access to over 200 incredibly fun games with no ads and no in-app purchases.
