Is Gex - Deep Cover Gecko still worth playing in 2026?
Crystal Dynamics' third entry, Gex Deep Cover Gecko extends the parodic 3D platformer with new television worlds, unlockable secondary characters and ever more referential humour. The variety of settings, from western to space, and the gecko's one liners keep a good natured charm. The still imperfect camera and a formula little renewed since the previous entry weigh. A colourful, light 3D platformer to recommend for series fans and lovers of offbeat television humour.
