Gex 3 Deep Cover Gecko

Gex is another childhood classic. I can't believe how many references and impersonations I missed growing up. Gex is always spouting off something funny, and/or eluding to someone, something, or being all around goofy. I love all the signs and graffiti placed throughout the levels. They add more depth and creativity to the levels - and they are always funny in a teenage kind of way, which is always the best. Definitely a great game and one to give a try if you haven't all ready. I don't think I ever played Gex 1 or 2, so you don't need those in order to fully enjoy this one.

Deep Cover Gecko is the third and last Gex game to be made. This entry was made with the help of british developer EIDOS in exchange for Crystal Dynamics' help in producing Soul Reaver and Tomb Raider: Revelations, but I digress. This game picks up after Gex: Enter the Gecko with series baddie Rez kidnapping Gex's partner, Agent Xtra. Gex then heads back to the Media Dimension to save Extra and stop Rez once again. Gex 3 is the second 3D Gex game and is unique in a few ways. Firstly, none of the levels repeat. In previous Gex games you would encounter multiple levels with the same theme. For example you'd complete a level based on horror films and then later in the game you'ld come across another one. Each level in Gex 3 on the other hand is unique. There is only one level per theme. One Mystery channel, one Anime channel, etc. The Gameplay is largely the same as it was in Gex: Enter the Gecko. You control the camera with the shoulder buttons this time around, but it can still be a major problem when judging distance while platofrming. The other addition is a number of costumes that give you minor upgrades, like a vampire cape to glide, a superhero costume, or a tunic to make you strong. These are interesting and add some variety, however they're under utilized and don't show up very often. This game also appeared on the N64, however there are fewer voice clips and no 3D cutscenes. The other difference between the two is that the Mythology channel, a parody of the old Hercules movies and Clash of the Titans, has a different level design. On the PS1 it's set on Mt Olympus, and on the N64 it's set in Hades. Now a game changer, but a nifty fact. Dana Gould returns to voice Gex, who is still amusing to listen to and Marliece Andrea plays Agent Xtra. If you're playing a PAL version Gex is played by Danny John-Jules, known for playing The Cat on BBC's Red Dwarf. The unique levels have their own set of jokes which greatly reduces the chance of repetition which was a problem with the previous games. It's a shame that no new games have been made since, but this was a pretty good conclusion. It's a great PS1 game and a solid title for 3D platforming fans all around.

This game is OK, it's not as good as Super Mario 64 or B&K but its a nice game for the ps1. Gex 3 is a humorous platforming game kind of like conkers bad fur day but not as funny, and no you will not be seeing singing poop. This movie has a decent amount of content with your collectables and such, there are a nice array of different levels parodying television channels like army channels, pirate movies or anime channels. The controls are nice but the camera flops sometimes. The graphics are acceptable but the beauty is taken away from the fog, its like mine craft on low render distance, yeah. Anyway its no classic in my book but it is nostalgic as I played this at a young age. I say spend your money on Crash Bandicoot or Spyro first if you are buying ps1 games to play. Its ironic that the people who made tomb raider, made a platforming game that really didn't do so well.

This game is just as good but a bit funnier than it's successor Gex 2: Enter The Gecko. Combined with funny and sometimes adult voice acting, this game is very fun and challenging at times with it's assortment of levels and mini games! Go buy it and enjoy!

Bought game got game doesn’t load or play

The last time we saw Gex which was in the game called Gex: Enter the gecko he saved t.v. from a robot named Rez. Kinda wierd huh? Well in this game a woman named Agent Xtra was captured by Rez. When Gex was at home thinking about his last successes he decided to watch the news. When he was in the middle of watching the news he saw that Agent Xtra was captured by Rez. So Gex decided to go and save Agent Xtra. So he goes to the Gex caves and starts his new adventure. What you gotta do is you have to go to new t.v. levels and collect as many t.v. remotes as you can. Remember, the more remotes you collect the closer you will get to Rez. In this game Gex wears all sorts of different costumes like Hercugex, Supergex, Privategex, Dracugex, Little Red Riding Gex, and Sherlockgex. There is a whole lot more, but I cannot name them all. Gex also has rides too like Al Nino the donkey which can help Gex go up hills that are too slippery for Gex to climb and Humps the camel which can help Gex cross sinky sand and there are a few others. There are secret characters that you can play in the bonus rounds, but you have to find them first before you can play them. There is Rex which is Gex's prehistoric ancestor and Cuz which is Gex's cousin. This game is really fun to play and not only that, the graphics are very nice and colorful. The colors in this game are much brighter than the other Gex games which makes this game even better and more fun to play, but the camera is a bit slow, but that is ok. You will get used to it after a while. The bad thing about this game is that there is adult language in it. It says bad words like d--- and s---. While you are playing this game you will hear really, really, really funny one-liners from Gex, but some of them have bad words in the one-liners or shall we say quotes. Believe me do not let kids under the age of 10 to play this game. That was the reason why I gave this game a four star instead of a five star. But hey, this game is okay for the whole family anyway, if you have a child that is younger than the age of ten and you don't want your child to hear the bad words than you are lucky, because there is a way to turn off the voice of Gex that way Gex won't even speak at all. You can turn the Voice from Gex off by going to the pause menu. Well that is all I have to say about Gex3: Deep cover Gecko. If you ever buy this game I hope you will like it as much as I did. Thanks for taking your time to read my review. ( - -,) ( ^ ^,) :)
