Man, that was a great game!

I had it for the 3DO and also the PSX port. Such a fun game. The whole "in the movies" thing was awesome back in the early-mid 1990's.

as a kid i was obsessed with the gex series. i love all of them they were soo fun. i sucked at the first one though. but that's probably due to me and my lack of skill when it comes to 2D games (still love them though).

I love the Gex games.

I have the first game for the Saturn. It's awesome.

I also have the second game for the PS1. It's awesome in a different way.

Used to have the GBC version of the third game, but that sucked.

I wish they'd port those games to current systems (PSN, XBLA, Wiiware).

And I actually came up with an idea for a fourth game, which is right here.

I picked up the original Gex a few months back, and Gex 3 about a year ago. Gex 1 is pretty fun, but Gex 3 (on N64) is painful to play.

Very wanted game of mine. I played I think it was 3 for the PS1 on a demo disc I have and I also have Gex: Enter The Gecko on Game Boy Color which suffers from terrible controls. The demo I played was really fun though and I'm interested in looking into the console Gex titles. It's one of my most wanted 3DO games.

Man, I was gonna have a Saturn day tomorrow (Bug!, Sonic 3D Blast, Daytona USA) but now I'm thinking of rocking some Gex (PS1). I'd play Gex 3, but the framerate and camera on the N64 version are so iffy I don't think I will.
