crystal dynamics 3do GEX MEDIA GAME 20.03. OF THE MONTH category: Action EDITORS CHOICE challenge: Moderate FOCUM KOLEGGINES OR STA release date: Now back-up: Battery It is simply the best 3DO action title there is. GEX does so much within the limits of the system that at times it seems like Crystal Dynamics tried too hard. The only flaw is in the slowdown that fre- quently appears. The control is perfect, and the graphics are great. Best of all is the witty voice- overs that will totally have you in stitches. All of the levels have lots of secrets, and they are all huge. The themes are great, and I'm hoping a sequel is on the way. If there was ever a game surrounded by endless hype and development time, GEX has to be it. But the long wait was well worth it. GEX proves to be one of the best action games ever seen on the 3DO! The graphics and sounds are superb, and the voice of comedian Dana Gould adds some great one-liner humor to an already enjoyable game. Unfortunately, the backgrounds scroll a bit choppily but that's not the fault of the program- mers and hardly takes away from the fun. Well, it took a while, but I finally found a 3DO action game I REALLY like. GEX is to 3DO what DKC is to Super NES. Crystal Dynamics has taken a proven success formula and implement- ed it into a game that's sure to make its mark on the 3DO platform. Players will surely welcome the game's fresh look and style. The animation is impressively fluid, the music is top-notch and the challenge is perfect. This is, without question, the best action platform game for the 3DO! This is going to be the game that draws people to the 3DO. Not since Mario and Sonic has there been a cute and cool mascot character. The game plays great, looks great, sounds great and simply is great. There is some slowdown, but I really overlooked it due to the large levels and great game play. The smart-mouth comments are a new plus from a character who makes its own statement. This is definitely must buy for the 3DO and perhaps the best game yet! Best Feature: Graphics, voices Worst Feature: Choppy scrolling Time To Complete: Long Also Try: Any other side-scroller

LOUD. POWERFUL. UNAPOLOGETIC! LIKE A JAM SESSION WITH JACK BLACK. THE VOICE ACTOR? THE YOUTUBER?
GEX REVIVAL PITCH BIBLE Now starring: GEX JUNIOR??????????????? Divorced dad gex • He's still dating bubsy, f--- it, How Gex Got His Groove Back, f--- it, who cares gex confession to bubsy “I wish I knew how to quit you" - ren Rez is BACK and this time he's come for streaming Gex enlists the help of his niece to save the Web Media dimension, and also, his relationship with his son VTuber Gex GEX at end of game to son: "Was that the bite of '87?!?!", father and son lovingly embrace The Conflict with Gex Jr Gex is an out-of-touch dad who doesn't understand his son. Since the mom has custody of the kid, he doesn't get to see Junior very often. Gex never really moved on from what happened with his own dad, leaving him feeling ill-prepared for fatherhood. He walked out on the kid at a young age and only recently decided to establish contact and try to be a parent. The mom isn't thrilled, but she's willing to give Gex a chance so long as he doesn't screw things up. Unfortunately for Gex, Junior doesn't understand any of his cultural reference points (which is the only way Gex knows how to communicate). Conversely, Gex doesn't really get any of this "new media" his kid is obsessed with. Tiktoks? Let's Plays? Why would you want to watch someone else play a video game? Make it make sense! The Big Bad • Oh no! Rez is BACK and this time his target is that very same media Junior is obsessed with: New Media! Specifically, web media. Netflix! Twitch! YouTube! Cable is dead, and Rez must set his sights on the entire internet if he wishes to rebuild his media empire. • Gex may not understand new media, but Junior is devastated by Rez's takeover. For the first time in his life, Gex must fight to free the New Media dimension not as a fanatic... but as a father. If Gex wants to win his son's favor, he needs to put a stop to Rez's plan. However, being out of his depth when it comes to internet culture, he knows he can't do this alone... Gex's Disaffected Zoomer Niece Born around the turn of the century, she is young enough to share Gex Jr's cultural references and old enough to occasionally figure out what the hell her uncle is talking about. Her parents, after seeing what TV addiction did to Gex, severely limited her television hours growing up. Because of this she relished any time she was able to spend over at Uncle Gex's place, since he let her watch whatever she wanted. While they don't exactly have a close emotional bond, she is fond of her uncle... even though she thinks he is "kind of cringe." Gex enlists her help to save the New Media dimension and, by extension, his relationship with his son. Serves as Gex's personal guide to the internet. Enjoys 80's/90's throwback media, despite not really getting the references (Gex is happy to explain them to her) Does impressions (like her uncle) but is REALLY bad at them (unlike her uncle). Manages Gex's social media because she understands that he should never, EVER be allowed to post. Never. Here's how you can understand the Gex Family: Gex makes Star Wars references. Niece makes Prequel references. Gex Jr. makes Sequel references.
