1990s - when TV was still a thing!

GEX, a TV-culture-crazed classic side-scrolling platformer where you take down the devious media mogul Rez as a wise-cracking gecko, is available for only $5.99 on GOG.com!

His uncle modeled for a yuppie shirt logo, his Dad blew up in a NASA rocket, his busy Mom raised him in front of the tube. Meet GEX - a wisecracking gecko with a major attitude. With his blazing tongue, battering tail, and sharp wit, this outrageous reptile is ready to kill TV and movie rejects in a sidesplitting game of awesome intensity! This classic platformer from the 90s serves up a myriad of decade-specific TV and movie one-liners, and lets you battle your way through 5 uniquely-themed worlds of the Media Dimension. Not to mention that your hero GEX, unlike most geckos, can hurl fireballs, climb buildings, tail-slap his foes, and inhale power-up bugs for extra energy.

Want to see the game in action? Here's a recording of the feature stream: [url=http://www.twitch.tv/gogcom/c/5654494]GOG Classics: GEX with BaerTaffy!

Grargar: Yup, Square-Enix indeed.
Oh well, the bright side is that at least SE seems to be still publishing games to GOG, and not Steam-only.
cool release! Wishlisted for now!

sunshinecorp: Hadn't heard of this before, but judging from the comments I'd wager it's good. No?
it is sortof classic. never went big and the 3d game wasn't that good from i heard but this one is loved by many.

i just played a demo of it ages ago.
wheeeee

I can buy it now.

I guess the next game to wait for then, is Revenant. Unless Enter the Gecko is in the works?
I just came...

...online and clicked on my GOG.com bookmark, saw that Gex was released here and then I came.
Fix the Regional pricing Daily Please!

1.00 AUD = 0.870549 USD

So

5.99 USD = 6.88 AUD

It's actually 6.88088 AUD

Ouch, is very sad to see so many post regarding the new pricing policy :(
Nice, never played one game of the series but always read good things about them

JudasIscariot: Finally, it's out :D Now I can get back to making Enigmatic Hints again :D
Shouldn´t they be Iscariotic Hints now? :)
Wow! This is so unexpected! :D It's great to see this one here. It's one of those games I heard a lot about back in the day, but have never played.

Now, I can eventually get to it. :)

I'm pretty sure I played this one years ago. I'll have to have a better look into it later, but for now, nice to see this one here.

Whatever you wanna call 'em but figured you should know that there is a new hint up for guesses :)
Wonderful! Instant purchase. A really fun game, and the pop culture references are spot-on for my generation. The comedian who voices Gex was a regular on Comedy Central back when this came out, a time which was also the age of Mystery Science Theatre 3000.

Finally, a "big publisher" classic; it's been too long. ;)

Fantastic game and fantastic release GOG. Just a tad shame the soundtrack wasn't included.
