Business, business, business... it's like a never-ending cycle. Speaking of loops - we're back again with another Big Week in Gaming for 2 May 2021. Join integot, Mike and Swinny as they wax lyrical about Ratchet & Clank, the ACCC taking on Apple & Google, EA wanting people to buy FIFA lootboxes (shocking!), PS5 & Xbox sales updates - and amiibo pre-orders. Always with the bloody amiibos. It's almost like we're in some kind of amiibo death loop.

Speaking of loops, integot reviews the new Satoru Iwata book, while Mike gives hands-on impressions with the new PS5 shooter Deathloop. I mean... Returnal. That's the one. We also dive into the next Game of Some Other Year 2011 nominee - Eido Montreal's acclaimed Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Speaking of loops, check out these eternal returning highlights:

▸ The Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart State of Play

▸ Is the ACCC a witness for Epic vs Apple?
