Hi there!

You seem to have made a bit of a mistake in your post. Luckily, the users of 4chan are always willing to help you clear this problem right up! You appear to have used a tripcode when posting, but your identity has nothing at all to do with the conversation! Whoops! You should always remember to stop using your tripcode when the thread it was used for is gone, unless another one is started! Posting with a tripcode when it isn't necessary is poor form. You should always try to post anonymously, unless your identity is absolutely vital to the post that you're making!

Now, there's no need to thank me - I'm just doing my bit to help you get used to the anonymous image-board culture!

Everyone was doing mascot platformers back then. Considering how many of them were great, I'd say Gex is about appropriately rated as "that other one, featuring a lizard with a borderline unintelligible sense of humor".

The jokes and references make the games stand out, alongside the character. It's a blend of everything that makes a game series work. Gex never had a really bad game either, just underwhelming ports at worst.
On that note, it was the AVGN review with Gex that keyed me in that he was finished. Why the fuck would you NOT play the PS1 games?
>>
>>744226352
Gex is at least 30% responsible for all my tastes. I had to go back and watch/read/listen to everything that was being referenced because obsessive child. On the plus side, it gave my parents and I several bonding routes that hadn't been available before, and I think I'd be way more autistic if not for it. Thank fucking God my parents didn't get me Sonic games.

It's not really that complicated.
Tailvore is when the tail has an orifice used for eating.
Tailguts are when normal guts extend into the tail.
The former is Cell from DBZ, the latter is just cartoon snake anatomy extrapolated to non-snake creatures, really.

I don't think a new Gex game would have the same format where he's just making random level-themed jokes on a timer with a few generic context sensitive ones mixed in. It used to be that they had to be economical about the lines they recorded. You couldn't keep everything loaded in RAM all at once, if you needed eleven minutes of dialogue and five different music tracks all queued up on top of that. That's why they did almost everything important to the story through FMV cutscenes. but now, there's nothing stopping a new Gex game from being more deliberately designed. Nothing but the budget is stopping you from having a unique quip for dynamic events that happen every level.
There's nothing stopping them from making a modern 2D platformer with the core mechanics of the first game that looks and feels like the FlippinDingDong cartoon that spurred the renewal of interest in Gex in the first place.

It only stopped because CD didn't want to do anymore games, not that the jokes were for Boomers. Even as a kid, you could catch some of what Gex was spouting on TV just fine. The real DNA was Dana Gould, his standup + Gex's references were the real glue holding it together. You can do more Gex games, but if Dana wasn't able to come back for more of them, that was pretty much it unless they wanted to find another comedian to do Gex. Keep in mind that TV was the king back then and internet was still very, very minuscule.

It's the same story with all these old animal characters. The only people who care anymore are the ones with an inexplicable sexual fixation on them. That's why we keep having Gex and Klonoa threads even though no one bought their latest rereleases.

>>744240824
The Gex games were always targeted at an older audience while still being suitable for a younger one.
That's why Gex 1 was released on the 3DO first. It was supposed to be THE video game console for Young Urban Professionals. Which is why it cost a millionty billion dollars, had a franchise business model, and no one bought it.

I played all three games as a kid, and I even bought the Gex Trilogy rerelease. They're good games. Gex 1 was probably the best thing released for the 3DO, Gex 2 is a perfectly good 3D platformer, and both it and Gex 3 are meaningfully different in gameplay feel from any contemporary or current 3D platformers. They're all worth playing, but I have to say Gex 1 is my favorite of the three, it feels most true to the intended vision of the brand, and the 3D games feel like a compromise made to suit the platforms they were published on.

You know, I don't think Gex should make zoomer era pop culture references, but I digress. It's just something about the magic of the older games that should be preserved. Most kids don't even realize how good us 30 and ups had it back then.
The BIGGEST problem with a renewal in general is Dana Gould probably won't return.
>>
>>744245095
>Dana Gould probably won't return.
As far as I know, he's still doing comedy shows, and even travelling for them. And as far as I know, he really liked Gex as a character. So it's not actually out of the question as long as we're talking about the near future.

You legitimately do not have to do any internet memes in that timeframe. You have enough TV and movies to lean on before you even have to do a Zero Wing reference, keyword, have, not want or need, have. You can literally spend a lifetime watching American TV and movies from the 1990's alone.
>>
>>744224827
Next game should be about the death of television, and how Gex is struggling to stay relevant, only to incidentally take down Rez through his various experimental escapades.

Level Ideas.
>Hollow-Life: He appears as an over-designed V-tuber model commentating over his actual character model playing the level, with a fast fake chat scrolling. Plays like OG side-scroller Gex.

>Unboxing channel: He has to complete a checklist of items, by traveling a chaotic city themed level, and beating the shit out of scalpers, and collector nerds to get the last item in each store. The level ends with a calm video of him carefully unboxing and opening card packs, while relaxing music plays in the background.

>Zero Shooter: Same as V-tuber, but he's in a dimly lit room with RGB lights, and a "dead inside" look on his face; chat moves a lot slower, and he's playing a parody model of himself that looks like Baz from Concord. You'll also notice small gaming inconsistencies (eating a burger with both hands), that imply he's cheating and using aimbots, pre-recorded, paid professional, ect. Plays like a standard competitive third-person shooter.

>Mr Fleece: "Good deeds" channel, where you go around giving money and doing other "nice" things for randos. The catch is that you have to "set the scene" by being a jerk and causing the problems that need to be solved via rube goldberg machine antics.

Jeepers Peepers VR Creepers: Appears as a VR model in a chatroom where hoards of OC models try to "hug" him. Plays like a wave survival for 10 waves.
>>
>>744247927
He does legitimately have a valid reading as a fruity theater kid compensating for gay urges through performative heterosexuality.

The backstory in the manual for Gex 1 had him cruising around, fucking older women for money until he inherited a ton of money from his uncle. Then he completely abandons any kind of relationship to sit around watching TV forever, only for Rez to send the bugged fly and pull him into the Media Dimension. Then he doesn't make very many raunchy comments until Agent Xtra shows up. At which point, his biggest priority suddenly becomes playing the suave womanizer, even though at no point in the previous two games was that the case.

At the very least, there's an undercurrent of the idea that he's a little bit ashamed to be seen as a passionate dork, and he's afraid of being labeled effeminate or gay over it.
>>
>>744245095
Didn't he literally reprise his role for the Gex Trilogy trailer?

He did. But it was only one line that he clearly recorded over a video call or something. Maybe even in just one take without warming up. It sounds that bad.
The real indication that he'd be willing to do another game is that he recorded new lines for the menus, and appeared in the bonus features for the Gex Trilogy release.

Gay Sex

For Gex 4 he is out of jail after a 20 years sentence for rape and now he only does dark humor and goes on rants about how many pedophiles he killed in prison. Now you collect smartphones instead of remotes and each time you complete a level he discovers a twitter drama and makes a spicy comment
