DESCRIPTION ▼

Gather round young'uns - it's time for the geriatric Bigwig crew to take you on a nostalgia trip for this Big Week in Gaming on 11 Apr 2021. Join integot, Mike and Swinny as they chat about their very first video game memories - from Cookie Monster Crunch to Sextris... everything's out in the open here folks.

We also look at the biggest (and coolest) news stories of the week, including; The Last of Us getting a remake, E3 2021 officially a thing, Animal Crossing's Build-A-Bear bonanza, a monkey playing pong with its mind, a 2D demake of Metroid Prime - and a crapload of new info about the changes in the upcoming Mass Effect remaster trilogy. Nobody can fault us for lack of variety, that's for sure!

So sit back, relax and let us regale you with these tall tales: 

▸ E3 2021 is officially confirmed... as a digital event

▸ Another Bloomberg bombshell - The Last of Us is getting a remake?

▸ And we reminisce about our very first video game memories
