A subreddit dedicated to the classic 90s mascot platformer trilogy, Gex created by Crystal Dynamics. Discuss the games, mythos, fangames, speedruns, easter eggs and so much more.
Welcome to the r/gex subreddit which is dedicated to the Gex the Gecko trilogy spanning across from 1995 to 1999 for the 3DO, Nintendo 64, Sony Playstation, Sega Saturn and many more. Since his debut, he has become a classic icon among the 90s 3D platformer scene. Mainly due to the references to pop culture, jokes and platforming to boot. Hence, resonating with the hearts of fans.
We are the biggest Gex community to date along with an active discord community with many Gex fans like yourself.
However, our true goal with this community is to gain enough momentum to hopefully bring Gex back into the limelight and give him the respect that he deserves! Every series deserves a chance and Gex is one of those mascots!

This rule goes without saying. We don't use this community to fish for karma. Also, we expect some effort put towards post to maintain the subreddit's quality. Any spam will be deleted without notice.
In general, this rule forbiddens all illegal sharing of roms and iso sites distributing them. However, expections such as Internet Archive which are made used for perservation/education purposes are allowed.
This goes without saying. NSFW content involving pornographic imagery, extreme gore and other stuff like is disallowed from the subreddit. However, there's some leeway, as long as it's mild in nature. Just don't include any cropped porn. Ok.
I know it's a hard thing to do. But, memes are allowed. However, this place isn't for dunkey and Scott the Woz shitposting. If you're posting on this subreddit, it's encourage if it relates to the games and people who are fans of the series. It sounds harsh, but despite Gex being a satricial game, it's important not to dilute the quality of the subreddit with low quality shitposts. Gex memes are allowed though.
Make sure your discussions are civil and not result to vitriolic arguments. Even it comes to heated debates, treat others like you will treat yourself.
There's many subreddits which promote political discussion, but we are about the games first and foremost which goes without saying.

This has literally been bothering me my whole life LOL
They have a few lines:
"You better run!"
"Ahuaaa"
and then the two that I can't understand:
"Hey there's ice in _______"
then the other one sounds like he's saying
"Come here tail boy" but I'm not sure.
He says it here at 10:27

I know this may all sound like a stupid question, but I can't for the life of me found out how to play Gex 3D: Enter the Gecko on Windows 11. I found this on the Internet Archive, but it just... doesn't work. Could anyone help?
I'm about to snag gex Japan and the 3do, Saturn games, Caswell as the n64 ones. Gonna try and snag the very rare enter the gecko pc port aswell.
That year has finally rolled around again. It's the new year and it seems like we came a long way. Especially with the Gex Trilogy teaser trailer by LRG. I would say we had a pretty good one. While there isn't much to say in regards to the Gex community, outside the moving from FANDOM wiki to Miraheze wiki (Gexpedia). We will be entering nearly 5 years of the since the complete overhaul in leadership.
That honestly has me very excited for the future. While not much has occurred. I'm positive there will be more positive news in the coming months. Thank you to everyone who stuck with us, and I wish a pleasant 2024.
