Gex returns again and this time he has to save the girl. Baywatch babe Marliece Andrada to be exact. The game play is about the same as Gex (2) Enter the Gecko, you collect remotes, gex paws & defeat bosses. You battle in levels that are spoofs of famous movies and TV. Now I've never been a big Gex fan and I thought Gex Enter the Gecko wasn't all that great. But I have to say Gex 3 show a lot of improvement but also has a lot of faults. The Graphics are a big improvement from Gex 2 but the FMV is vary choppy. I feel my Playstation has a small skipping problem. And the Gex's wise cracks are funny at first but get really old after a while. The camera angles are better then Gex 2 but still can be a problem, It really ruins the control. They did add some good levels in this one. Bigger then Gex 2 and more secrets. They also added 3 secret characters to unlock, But they are nothing worth trouble. And as far as I can tell you can't play them on any of the regular levels. just bonus and main HQ. Is this game worth your gaming dollars? Well if you liked Gex 2 then this is a must have. If you never played Gex 2 then Rent it 1st. But if you hated Gex 2 then Gex 3 won't change your mind.
