A new trailer for the Gex Trilogy has been released, featuring all three console games developed by Crystal Dynamics. The collection includes Gex, Gex: Enter the Gecko, and Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko, starring the anthropomorphic gecko protagonist. Pre-orders are set to begin in autumn 2024 with availability on Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam.
Has this upcoming release piqued your interest?
No. It’s not a remaster or remake or even a port. LRG are predators and market manipulators. They’re preying on your nostalgia with the hopes that you’ll pay top dollar for the most “premium” version of their release by creating a false sense of scarcity. All of this just so people can own a “new” physical copy of a disc or cartridge running a few games on an emulator.
Eh. LRG puts out dumb stuff all the time, but they’re not forcing anyone to buy their $200 Bill & Ted limited edition with stickers, soundtrack, and SteelBook or whatever. It’s not a company’s responsibility to sell you less stuff.
If you just want an easy way to play certain games on your Switch or PS4, they can be an easy way of doing so if you no longer have the console in question or if the market rate for original cartridges or discs has priced you out.
They also occasionally put out the first Western licensed version of certain Japanese games on original media, which I think is pretty worthwhile and something they should do more of. Provided they aren’t just CD-Rs.
No one needs to buy every random thing they put out.
Also gonna be honest, Gex aged like fine milk
The 2D game is pretty fun, imo
This is worse than taking a cab with Lady Gaga!
The whole point is that you’re buying a collector’s item. You’re not buying an LRG release because they’re your primary storefront for the latest games.
I think you misunderstand what LRG is.
Thinking it’s dumb =/= misunderstanding
