This one is the first game in the Gex-series, but the one I played last (after Enter the Gecko and Deep Cover Gecko). That means I already played the 3D-titles as a kid on the PSone and now in 2017 I noticed that this game is available on GOG for Windows. I buyed it when it was on Sale and started to play this 2D-platformer on my Win7 PC. In my opinion, this game is as good as the 3D ones (I like them) and the gameplay, graphics are still enjoyable (I play on a Sony Trinitron PC-CRT from 1997). The levels (TV-stations) are cool and each one has its own theme like Sci-Fi, Horror, Cartoon, Martial Arts etc. The Soundtrack is OK, but not as good as the one from Enter the Gecko (the best Gex-OST in my opinion). The protagonist, Gex has a lot of one-liners and many of them are even today funny and you can understand the references if you speak/understand English. My verdict for this game is 4/5 stars, because the PC version has no save-function (only a password-function) and the keyboard-controls are bad (You really need a gamepad, I use an Xbox360 one).
Ich hab mir mal die Anthology für PS2 gekauft, enthalten sind die Teile 1 bis 6 und X für ca. 10€. Hier kostet ein Titel bereits 5€, das macht 20€ für alle vier bei GOG erhältlichen Spiele. Das ist meiner Meinung nach viel zu teuer. Ich finde jeder Titel sollte nur die Hälfte kosten oder beim Kauf eines 5€ Metal Slugs sollte man 2,50€ gutgeschrieben bekommen. Ansonsten sind die Teile große Klasse auch wenn sie sich kaum voneinander unterscheiden.
As I am writing this Review, this game is for free! (Don`t spend Money on the Redux Version, it`s almost the same game.)
10€ for this Redux Version? The original costs nothing!
