Whether or not he believes Rez is unknown.
In desperation, Rez tells Gex through a television that he is his father. He accepts the mission, to which he leaves the building and is then accosted by a female agent who introduces herself as Agent Xtra and wishes him good luck.Īfter navigating numerous television channels in the Media Dimension, Gex finally confronts Rez and the two battle once again until Gex drops a huge television set on Rez severely weakening him. When the agents make a fair negotiation for a huge sum of cash and gadgets, Gex tells them everything. Gex refuses, saying that he has already saved the world once and that they should try to find someone else. The agents explain that Rez has returned and they need his help in taking him down again. Two government agents also appear and abduct Gex to their headquarters, in which Gex is interrogated. Two years later, his quiet life is soon turned upside down when one day he was watching television when all of a sudden, it goes blank and Rez’s image begins flashing on the screen. The game was followed by 1999’s Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko, which released on the PlayStation, Nintendo 64, and Game Boy Color.įollowing his victory over Rez in the Media Dimension, Gex has retired from the public eye and turned to solitude. Critics’ main concerns centered on the game’s camera, graphics, low-polygon enemies, and simplicity. The Nintendo 64 release, due to hardware limitations, features six fewer levels than its PlayStation counterpart, but the release also includes one exclusive level, “Gecques Cousteau”.Ĭritical reception of Gex: Enter the Gecko was mostly positive. Hundreds of voice-overs were recorded for the character Gex, but hardware constraints forced the Nintendo 64 version of the game to include only around one hundred samples. The Gex model was rebuilt with this perspective in mind, and much of the game’s humor was inspired by Fox’s animated television series The Simpsons, on which script writer Rob Cohen had previously worked as a writer. Gex seeks to collect three types of remotes to unlock different TVs in the overworld that aid in the fight against his arch-nemesis, Rez.Īfter creating the original Gex, which released for the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer, PC, Sega Saturn, and PlayStation in 1995, developer Crystal Dynamics sought a sequel in the form of a 3D platform video game in the style of Super Mario 64. Its protagonist, Gex, a TV-binging, wisecracking gecko, is voiced by Dana Gould in the North American version, Leslie Phillips in the European release, and Mitsuo Senda in the Japanese release. Gex: Enter the Gecko is a 1998 platform game and the second installment of the Gex video game series, released in 19 for the PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Microsoft Windows, and Game Boy Color.
