Man I've been really wanting to replay Enter the Gecko does anyone know if it works on Windows 7? PCGamingwiki says I just need a wrapper for the glide API, I have an N64 cart but that version is missing a lot of voice lines. Or would it just be easier to emulate the PS1 version?

Kickstarter modern Gex with memes when?

>>376285292
Emualte the PS1 version for sure
I grew up with the n64 version, and after getting a PS1 copy, I fucking amazed at how much cut content there is

Square has said many times that they're totally open to devs using the IP.

Less open to publishing the title or not taking a fair slab of royalties - but this isn't nu-Atari or some dumb shit, they're not just sitting on them.

I asked for Goldeneye as a Christmas present one year. Imagine my surprise when I open the N64 game-shaped present only to find it's fucking Gex 64.

Apparently, Goldeneye was sold out and my mother thought this looked "close enough," so she went ahead and bought the piece of shit.

>>376293438
funny thing is Gex aged better than Golden Eye

did anyone else have a godawful time on the titanic level on 64? the fixed camera gives no depth perception when jumping into the toilets.

did the same thing for the mooshoo pork boss fight by replacing his unique boss theme with the circuit central theme

Beat this a month or two ago. Is Rez his dad? I think it was justa gag but what if? Also why would gex be motivated by money? Apparently his family is loaded.

>>376293797

Good taste but I SAY I have a preference for this track.

The more quotes from these games that I read, the more I realize that it was literally doing the Family Guy cutaway gags. "To see the world as Keith Richards does" sounds like some shit Peter would say before a 5 minute musical interlude.

Classic

I'm very nostalgic for all three Gex games. Loved them as a kid and still like them now.

>>376295660
It's one thing to shove references into a setting where they neither belong nor make sense, it's another to make the entire game about references.

>>376295660

I never thought the Gex references were particularly topical. I remember references to Jimmy Hoffa and Johnny Weissmuller, who'd both been dead nearly 15 years by the time Gex was released.

Why did Gex 1 get so hard? Either way Gex 2 and 3 were fairly solid games, they just got outshined by better platformers from that period. It's odd how people shit on the series now when it was never that bad.

>>376296371

>>376296450
The stages got real maze like and I remember constantly getting lost, but I haven't played the game since like 1996.

>>376296728
Is the N64 version worse somehow?

>>376297675
Doesn't help any that your view of everything is so limited, Gex himself seems to take up 1/9th the screen at times, and trying to move at full speed is just asking to take a hit or fall in a pit.

>>376297675
N64 Gex 2 is very much the worse version. Everything looks worse, controls worse, some stages were cut and replaced with one stage themed around the Titanic that was awful.

>>376284630
I have one of these too
it was 75 bux
I also have an old store poster

>>376297929
Not to mention about 90% of Gex's one liners were cut.

Ever feel like you're trapped in Boy George's Pants? Because you sure fucking will be if you play the N64 port.

Gex is also a safe series to shit on, so people are free to fuck with it. Same shit happens with Mega Man Legends, which also probably has a mediocre N64 port.
