I think we know pretty much what to expect here: Save states the ability to rewind gameplay and other quality-of-life extras plus maybe some fun behind-the-scenes bits game art and perhaps some developer interviews The upcoming Croc: Legend of the Gobbos remaster certainly comes to mind here with its extensive Crocipedia/Crocumentary features the Gex Trilogy won’t be getting the same loving graphical and control overhaul that Croc has enjoyed; these will essentially be the same Gex games we all played back in the '90s only now compatible with current consoles and systems Think one-for-one emulation with a sprinkling of current-day additions I’ve long been a fan of these run-and-jump titles, and even went so far as to chat with a few developers who worked on the games. It was for a massive 2017 Retro Gamer feature I called The History of Gex (issue #167) There’s lots of fascinating info in those pages like the cancelled Gex Team Racing/Eidos All-Stars (with Raziel God forbid Retro Gamer ever digitize their entire catalog and put it online Gex may have never reached the heights of Crash Bandicoot or Mario he definitely holds a special place in gaming lore even if his presence simply reminds us of just how many mascot platformers existed in the decade that birthed the Backstreet Boys I’ve messaged Limited Run to inquire about the status of the Gex Trilogy I’d say we’re going to hear more about a potential launch date pretty soon you could head over to Ebay today and pick up relatively cheap disc copies of these games and there’s always the morally and legally gray emulation route But if you’re looking to play Crystal Dynamics’ classic TV-inspired adventures I do wonder if Dana Gould be be down to reprise his reptilian role for a possible Gex 4—it sounds like he actually recorded fresh dialogue for the recent trailers the collection will come to Nintendo Switch Please select what you would like included for printing: Copy the text below and then paste that into your favorite email application She was preceded in death by her husband of 64 years Estelle Coleman; four grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren Joseph’s feast day each year by building beautiful altars and quietly helping families in need whether by cooking meals or offering a helping hand Theresa brought joy to everyone around her and service will live on in the hearts of her family and all who knew her The family would like to invite all who knew and loved Theresa to join them as we commemorate her life A visitation will be held in the Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady chapel https://www.facebook.com/share/19rj2E9RJg/?mibextid=wwXIfr Enter your phone number above to have directions sent via text This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply Service map data © OpenStreetMap contributors Here is an overview of the collection, via its Steam page: Everyone’s favorite tail-whipping, channel-surfing, gecko is back in a collection that features all of his best-selling adventures Things are about to get weirder than the 4th of July at Rick James’ place GEX Trilogy includes the original 2D platformer and the two 3D sequels: GEX: Enter the Gecko and GEX 3: Deep Cover Gecko—but these aren’t just re-runs This Carbon Engine powered collection includes extras and numerous improvements that bring GEX back into prime time Watch a new trailer below.

Why are so many bad to mediocre platformers getting remasters when Einhander Terra Diver and so many legit amazing games still stuck on 30 year old consoles are you suggesting that Gex is a “bad to mediocre platformer” We do not talk ill of the Gex in this house & Terra Diver don't have classic 90s references though I like platforms and might eventually pick it up Are these straight ports or did they improve on graphics They're emulated games running on the Carbon Engine but we should get some updates like camera controls Limited Run has dropped a new video teaser showing off its upcoming release of Gex Trilogy The trilogy - which bundles the original PS1 2D platformer and the two 3D sequels: Gex: Enter the Gecko & Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko - aren't "just" re-releases but include a number of extras and improvements to "bring Gex back into prime time" and behind-the-scenes content including classic adverts and an exclusive interview with Dana Gould You can see Gex in action in the teaser below: "Things are about to get weirder than the 4th of July at Rick James' place channel-surfing gecko is back in a collection that features all of his best-selling adventures!" Limited Run teased Whilst there's no firm release date as yet Gex Trilogy is expected to release in summer/Q3 2025 for Nintendo Switch ICYMI, previously unseen footage from a demo for an unannounced Gex sequel made the rounds back in 2022 The footage showed a character named Gex Jr making his way through what appears to be a cinema jumps from screen to popcorn machine and on to yet another screen (one of which appears to show Gex from Crystal Dynamics' original games) all while chugging down cans of fizzy soda and making some pretty dated references © 2025 Eurogamer.net a brand of IGN Entertainment No part of this website or its content may be reproduced without the copyright owner's permission Eurogamer is a registered trademark of Gamer Network Limited Login | Sign Up Time Extension Guest A Steam page has now appeared for Limited Run Games' upcoming Gex Trilogy, as spotted by gaming publication Gematsu Gex Trilogy was first announced back in July 2023 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Switch, and is set to feature GEX, Gex: Enter the Gecko, and Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko The first of these was originally released for the early 32-bit platform the 3DO in 1995 before making their way over to other platforms As is the case with most Limited Run Games releases the collection is set to take advantage of the company's Carbon Engine introducing additional features like rewinds and save states with the new Steam page simply listing the title as "Coming Soon" the copy used to describe the individual games on the Steam page seems to be taken wholesale from the packaging for the original US releases and exclusively names the comedian Dana Gould as the actor voicing the titular Gecko This could potentially be significant as the UK/European versions of the second and third games in the series featured different voice actors for the lead character with the Carry On star Leslie Phillips voicing the character in Gex: Enter the Gecko while Red Dwarf's Danny John-Jules ended up taking over the role in Gex 3 Limited Run Games so far hasn't commented on whether the new collection will include these localized versions of the character we've reached out to the developer to try to get a definitive answer and will update this article once we hear back Phillips appeared in multiple Carry On films and also played the voice of Gex in the UK [source store.steampowered.com, via bsky.app] Prev Next Jack has a particular fondness for point-and-click adventure games he’s written about lost games from studios like Sony Manchester and has made a habit of debunking video game rumours Been waiting for an update on this awhile now I just hope they able to use the voice actors from the UK version as well I'm still waiting for croc even tho I ordered it in November I plan on grabbing this too buy I hope it doesn't get delayed or anything like croc has been @Kurokage Same I don't care much about Gex 2's UK voice actor but Danny John Jules did a fantastic job in the UK version of Gex 3 who's just phoning it in by that point they'd probably just use the US PS1 versions and call it a day as getting the rights to the UK voice actors likely cost extra @Crecca Croc as well If Croc and Gex Trilogy have been delayed I guess I shouldn't expect any new about the Tomba 2 remaster any time soon @PKDuckman The first Gex game I played was Gex 2 so the voice actor in that game really stood out as did Danny's in Gex 3 Is there any way fans of the game can make some noise about this so they do include the UK voice actors I'm sure gamers all over would enjoy hearing the differences @Kurokage I'd probably contact LRG or the voice actors directly through social media to let them know that there's a demand for their takes on Gex there's always the possibility of someone modding the PC version so that the voice acting could be changed I advise people to not purchase anything from them @Kurokage yeah no word on what's going on with croc but I've been waiting This and croc are going to feel so good with the 30th anniversary duelsense It's odd that croc got delayed especially after my life in gaming had a few hours of love streams with the development team The comments section did get some eagle eye fans pointing out some flaws mainly around the UI and animations being off so it's possible they delayed it to get everything right out of the box However given the physical edition wasn't printing until late 25 it could of always been planned As for gex I think this one was just announced to early and was in line behind some of remasters I do hope they include the UK voice actors as an option @slider1983 Same To here Gex say in that campy British voice 'Have some of my tongue darling!' again will be awesome Show Comments Hold on there, you need to login to post a comment..

Now if only Jersey Devil could get revived… We're turning this Gex night into a Gex YEAR!! (Insert obligatory Scott the Woz reference here) but nostalgia alone isn’t enough to make these old games look even remotely playable to me. would love a new game with modern world graphics/controls/physics. even Dead Space couldn’t be remastered well enough to not hurt my eyes and it was a PS3 game remastered for PS5 💀 It goes without saying but I’m gonna say it anyway. I hope the fan base for this pixelated mess is everything retro lovers want and need. Gex will ALWAYS hold a place in my nostalgic heart but I just can’t get on board with 30yo graphics I hope it includes the British and Australian voices for enter the gecko I remember trying Gex on a Panasonic 3DO demo unit I feel like I'm trapped in Boy George's pants" and "This place smells like ducks" in the Kung Fu level ain't gonna fly today when I think back on my experiences with these games as a kid it feels like a mixer of an acid trip and a blur but I can't recall all of the details years later I still own the Trilogy but I haven't played it in years Rewind and save anywhere are making this very appealing @rvcolem1 You could already play Vectorman on modern consoles both Vectorman 1 & 2 are playable on PS4 and Switch through multiple Sega collections Besides Vectorman doesn't had a trilogy yet @Dee123 They really should just release them as they are (maybe with some kind of disclaimer that people used to laugh at things) Literally there are 3 games I want as a switch owner (who intends to buy a switch 2) to the point that announcement are a little silly I replayed Enter the Gecko and Gex 3 on PSP a few years ago If you’ve never played them and love 3D platformers they could be worth a go but to me both when I first played them and when I replayed them they really just felt like the most just average 3D Platformers I do enjoy 3D platformers and Gex looks cool Isn't it weird how long it's taken for these 90's rereleases to come out Croc mysteriously got delayed at the last minute but time is running out; I've seen other listings saying Q2 Gex was announced a pretty good while ago and is still several months out There's also a Bubsy collection we haven't heard anything about since it was announced The announcement-to-release window for these B-tier (or C or D-tier) platformers should probably be a lot shorter Looking forward to playing them all for the first time I grew up on games like Ty the Tasmanian Tiger so I have a real soft spot for the less-popular platformers of the 90's and early 2000's But only if they refrain from censoring his lines The sharp humor is one of the biggest selling points @Zealv2 Is it that bad @Coalescence Nothing on social media is as it seems at face value Love to see this getting a release date even if a kind of generic one looking forward to it to finally give Gex a try myself Combined with 3D collectathon platformers being my favorite game genre; so I will definitely pick this remake up I have question about the versions in this collection is it the 3DO version that includes a saving system or the PS1/Saturn that has a password system I think we are getting the PC (CD-Roms) versions due to what I can conclude from looking at the footage in the trailer We would get the quality graphics of the N64 and the FMVs of the PS1 Are they fixing the camera? Even for the time, the 3D Gex's had a terrible camera. Could be fun games if they touch that up.@LikelySatan I don't like seeing games censored but I would honestly enjoy these more if most of his in game diaogue was cut out Another "even for the time" issue his one-liners were a glass bottle of pure distilled cringe that repeated way too often @KoiTenchi In historical context there wasn't really a whole lot out there when Enter the Gecko launched (1998).Yes But the PlayStation was still starved for even "the most just average 3D Platformer".Crash 1 and 2 were out but those weren't quite full 3D were they?I know Spyro wasn't too far off but I think it was still after Enter the Gecko @KingMike That’s true for the time period and I definitely feel there were a lot of very average 3D platformers on PS1 at the time I totally missed these back in the day so I’m super excited about this one @NeonPizza The original Gex was a 3DO original That was also a console with not a whole lot of headline titles.Though it is interesting you mention Rayman an original for the other troubled console at the time Though I'm not quite sure of the development plan for that We do know and have seen a leak of a one-level demo for the SNES but I'm not sure if Ubisoft planned to release it on multiple consoles when they moved it up to the 32-bit range @NeonPizza It's easier to say in retrospect since the PlayStation model we're used to now but I suspect part of the thing wrong with 3DO was its plan to license its hardware to manufacturers that didn't plan to support it with software I recall Panasonic didn't originally plan to publish games so therefore the skyhigh price was because they needed to turn a profit on the hardware (different than the MSX hardware Panasonic had sold before That was a computer that people could make their own software and so would've surely had more value to the consumer than a game console that can only play authorized commercially-written software.)

Of course, the release would later be ported to the PS1, and its subsequent 3D sequels Gex: Enter the Gecko and Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko led on PlayStation And now the entire Gex Trilogy is coming to PS5 this summer, courtesy of Limited Run Games’ emulation Carbon Engine. It looks like the previously announced PS4 version has been cancelled All three games will be playable in their entirety with modern day improvements like native widescreen although this feature obviously isn’t available in the first title as it uses hand-rendered backgrounds fixed to its original aspect ratio The Gex series had some all-star talent working on it over the years, including Glen Schofield of Dead Space fame and both Evan Wells and Bruce Straley from Naughty Dog Comedian Dana Gould also served as a writer and voice actor on the releases While these aren’t the best games from the 32-bit era it’s always good to see classics like this preserved on modern platforms We’ll certainly be revisiting these laugh out loud 90s classics [source youtube.com] Sammy has over 15 years of experience analysing the world of PlayStation from PS3 through PS5 and everything in between He’s an expert on PS Studios and industry matters He also enjoys RPGs when he has the time to dedicate to them there will be the inevitable Scott the Woz episode about Gex with his friends playing as amateur actors and singing some weird Gex song He‘d rather spend his time in more informative content It was Leslie Phillips and then Danny John-Jules doing Gex's voice in the UK for 2 and 3 I was obsessed with 3D platform games in the mid to late 90s these were far the best but also far from the worst I'll check these out at some point I'm sure I always remember there was a guy you could talk to if you’d lost a quest breaking item and you could say “I’ve lost it” I was hoping for an HD texture treatment like the Tomb Raider trilogies .. gonna spend my 19,99 in a different way then I think the avgn review already took care of my nostalgia I have fond memories of playing Gex on ps1 Will look forward to these being added to PS Plus Premium one day Limited Run Games will price their physical versions of this collection very fair and provide us with high quality merchandise @Oram77 no date specified They delayed it from Dec 24 and are now practically radio silent I hope I'm wrong but don't think we'll see it before May or June at earliest @Oram77 They actually emailed me yesterday and said this: with an expected shipping window of Q2 2025 (April–June) My wife referenced this Gex 2 last weekend And here we are getting news for it less than a week later @rusty82 That will mean another delay to Q2 Just glad they delayed it to continue work on it This place is weirder than 4th of July at Rick James' place @tameshiyaku I'm with ya Got my fix of Gex watching that new AVGN vid I really hope they fix the camera for the 3D games if this aint got the uk voices for gex 2 and 3 im gonna be extremly *******d off SOME OF US dont live in fairy land usa !! @breakneck thats not what you said on facebook otherday -_- @rusty82 ifi the uk voices aint in this re release im gonna be more angry then a (deleted Person ) that lost his wig in the usa It’s a shame Square Enix held on to these and therefore Limited Run are porting them If Gex had stayed with Crystal Dynamics then Sabre could have done a far better job like the Tomb Raider and Legacy of Kain collections Show Comments Clair Obscur: Expedition 33: The Continent Walkthrough - Lost Gestrals, Music Records, Outfits, Journals All collectibles locations in The Continent Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Trophy Guide: All Trophies and How to Get the Platinum How to unlock all Trophies in Expedition 33 Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Guide: A 100% Collectibles Walkthrough Clair Obscur: Expedition 33: All Outfits and How to Get Them Where to find every Outfit for all characters Clair Obscur: Expedition 33: All Journals Locations Where to find every Journal in Expedition 33 Gex Trilogy PlayStation 5 PS4, Switch 22 News GEX Trilogy Revives a Long Lost 90s Mascot on PS5, PS4 Guide Clair Obscur: Expedition 33: The Continent Walkthrough - Lost Gestrals, ...

and polymer capacitors at the secondary side are of top quality from reputable Japanese manufacturers such as Nippon Chemi-Con ensuring long-term reliability and performance we are using high

80Plus Gold certification requirements across different input voltages the PSU achieves an average nominal load efficiency of 90.2% which further improves to 91.8% when using a 230 VAC input slightly earlier than typical PC PSU topologies Although there is a 1.6% efficiency drop when using a 115 VAC input the GEX X2 still exceeds the certification requirements Its average efficiency is very high and the design could meet the 80Plus Platinum levels if it could improve its top efficiency at half load its efficiency drops below 80% at very low loads which is a common challenge for many PSUs relying on traditional topologies The fan in the Cougar GEX X2 starts spinning at a relatively low load of around 200 Watts slightly sooner than when the company suggests it would ensuring adequate cooling without excessive noise at low-to-medium loads The internal temperatures of the unit remain controlled indicating good thermal management without running overly hot the Cougar GEX X2 1000W PSU experiences a colossal decrease in efficiency under heavy loads with efficiency figures dropping to 87.6% at 115 VAC and 89.1% at 230 VAC compared to 90.2% and 91.8% during cold testing An efficiency degradation of more than 2.5% is unexpected for a quality unit Closer observation reveals that the efficiency drop is significantly greater when the unit is heavily loaded suggesting thermal stress of the unit’s active components (Image credit: Tom's Hardware)(Image credit: Tom's Hardware)(Image credit: Tom's Hardware)(Image credit: Tom's Hardware)(Image credit: Tom's Hardware)In these hotter ambient conditions the fan of the GEX X2 activates much sooner than during cold testing starting at a low load of around 80 Watts and ramping up more quickly as the load increases It reaches its maximum speed when the unit operates at about 90% capacity but the temperatures never get too high – as a matter of fact The fan is quiet at first and the noise is tolerable up to medium loads with the GEX X2 becoming intrusively loud only when it is continuously operating at above 75% capacity The Cougar GEX X2 1000W PSU offers outstanding electrical performance with several key features that set it apart The unit demonstrates exceptional voltage regulation maintaining the 5V and 3.3V rails at a mere 0.3% deviation which is remarkable for a power supply of any caliber The 1.2% regulation on the 12V rail is also very good but not as impressive Manufacturers usually neglect the minor voltage lines and focus on the 12V line – it seems that the designer of this platform did not cut any corners with measured maximum ripple values of 40 mV on the 12V line These figures are well within industry standards ensuring that the power delivered to your components is clean Although these numbers might not be record-breaking they are competitive with most products of similar tier and price range we evaluate the essential protection features of every power supply unit we review The Cougar GEX X2 1000W PSU successfully passed all critical protection tests without issue The OCP settings for the 3.3V and 5V rails are set to activate at 128% and 126% a little high considering their maximum power rating but not far from what we expected The 12V rail’s OCP activates at 122% a sharp setting for an ATX 3.0 compliant unit possibly a deliberate choice to balance accommodation for the power surges common with today’s powerful graphics cards with assurance of the unit’s reliability The Cougar GEX X2 1000W PSU is a fairly well-designed power supply that caters to modern gaming and workstation setups particularly for users requiring a robust unit with support for the latest graphics cards organized cable design make it an appealing option for builders looking for a sleek and functional PSU making the GEX X2 especially competitive for ITX and custom system builds where space is at a premium while its compact size makes it versatile for a range of applications this also constrains the cooling capabilities and with passive components sourced from reputable Japanese manufacturers the choice of less familiar brands for the fan and active components introduces an element of uncertainty particularly with its excellent voltage regulation across all rails responsible for powering the most demanding components while the 5V and 3.3V rails perform momentously better with minimal deviations of 0.3% This level of precision is commendable and ensures stable power delivery crucial for the reliability and longevity of high-performance systems with maximum ripple values well within industry standards with the unit achieving 90.2% efficiency at 115 VAC and 91.8% at 230 VAC the unit's efficiency dropped to 87.6% at 115 VAC and 89.1% at 230 VAC during hot testing suggesting that the GEX X2's components are under considerable thermal stress when operating under heavy loads in high ambient temperatures The thermal and acoustic performance of the GEX X2 1000W PSU is a bit of a mixed bag the fan begins to spin at a load of around 200W one cannot argue that the cooling solution is highly effective keeping internal temperatures within safe limits even while the unit is heavily stressed The fan ramps up gradually and manages to cool the unit adequately The noise level becomes intrusive only when the PSU operates above 75% capacity which should not be of much importance to gamers but could deter workstation users In conclusion, the Cougar GEX X2 1000W PSU is a capable and well-built power supply that delivers solid electrical performance with good voltage regulation and ripple suppression. However, although the performance results are generally very good, they do not set new benchmarks the GEX X2 does not offer a clear advantage over other units in the same class With an 80Plus Gold certification and its basic features being the compact design and compliance with the ATX 3.0 standard its retail price of $170 places it at a challenging intersection between mainstream and premium markets While the GEX X2 is a reliable and well-constructed PSU its price-to-performance ratio may limit its appeal particularly among budget-conscious consumers and enthusiasts who expect top-tier performance for the price they pay MORE: Best Power Supplies MORE: How We Test Power Supplies MORE: All Power Supply Content E.

games but I learned how to write about them while doing my Film and TV degrees at the University of Warwick and contributing to the student paper After university I worked at TheGamer before heading up the news section at Dot Esports Now you'll find me freelancing for Rolling Stone I'm currently clearing my backlog and loving Dishonored 2 NKyTribune I am responding to my friend Al Cross’ recent editorial opposing the amendment It is ironic that Cross uses unsupported claims that advertisements for the amendment are unsupported by evidence Adding to many other ridiculous speculations he asserts the General Assembly would subsidize “dune buggies and expensive Lego sets” like he incorrectly claims was done in Arizona there is strong evidence that education choice improves the performance of all students including those in traditional public schools A study released by the Progressive Policy Institute (PPI) just this month shows that charter schools improve the performance of students who attend and that increased competition improves the performance of nearby traditional public schools PPI is no right-wing institution – as described on its website PPI started as the intellectual birthplace of the New Democrat and ‘Third Way’ movements earning a reputation as President Bill Clinton’s ‘idea mill.’” PPI studied charter schools (such schools are public schools run by a private board subject to a “charter,” or contract with voluntary enrollment and no tuition costs) in ten cities with a high rate of charter school enrollment cities that have aggressively expanded high-quality public school choices available to students have seen a true rising tide: Low-income students across these cities – whether they attend a public charter or district-operated school – have started to catch up to statewide student performance levels.” cities serving majority low-income students with at least one-third enrolled in charter schools low-income students citywide have made meaningful progress [25-40% improvement] toward achieving on par with students statewide.” These results are consistent with studies that motivated the General Assembly to place Amendment 2 on the ballot Cross states “teacher pay has risen in Kentucky but not enough to keep up with competing states.” He fails to acknowledge that those competing states with higher teacher pay have some form of parental choice in education Cross’s own assertion is evidence that educational choice raises teacher salaries Cross wants voters to vote “no” on amendment 2 to tell the General Assembly not to “go too far,” but fails to communicate: All states contiguous to Kentucky have some form of education choice 44 states have charter schools enrolling a total of 3.7 million students Hundreds of millions of dollars in annual federal funding supporting the development of such schools are being left for others by Kentucky choice has been a normal part of the education landscape for families in many of our neighboring states Cross speculates it is “too far,” but like teacher salaries – education innovation in other states is already leaving Kentucky students behind The General Assembly previously passed tax credit scholarships for children of low- and middle-income families trapped in failing schools but these efforts have been struck down as unconstitutional (tax credit scholarships) or are currently suspended by litigation (charter schools) Amendment 2 simply enables the General Assembly to use its normal legislative process including public input and regular elections to catch up educationally with other states and tap into additional Federal funds the Kentucky General Assembly will never subsidize “dune buggies and expensive Lego sets” and neither did Arizona lawmakers Stateline reported some “tried” to buy those items – not that they were lawful to purchase but available technology provides tighter fiscal controls than found in most Kentucky school districts Amendment 2 supporters want to spark educational improvements for children in underperforming schools with school choice measures that are active in other states Each child is unique and learns differently and parents deserve educational choices that work for their child please join me in voting “yes” on Amendment #2 Senator Gex Williams represents Kentucky’s 20th district encompassing parts

"Our motto is 'Life with lives innovates future environments.' We set out our business with this strong belief in mind," says Mr. Hiroki. "The belief that the lives of animals enrich humans, and the lives of humans enrich animals." The surge in pet ownership during the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of pets in people's lives, including healing, calming and emotional education benefits. "During the period of the pandemic, consumers couldn’t go outside and needed to stay at home," Mr. Hiroki says. "Since people wanted to feel certain benefits that were hard to find, the demand for pets increased significantly." Recognizing this trend, Gex has been actively pursuing international markets to expand its presence and create new partnerships. "In the Southeast Asian market, we distribute our own brands through distributors," explains Mr. Hiroki. "Also, for the EU and North America, we have a partnership with Rolf C. Hagen Inc., based in Montreal, Canada, whereby we also distribute their global brands, EXOTERRA, CATIT and FLUVAL, in Japan. "We find countries like India and Indonesia appealing for expansion," he adds, "where population growth is expected, and we can also predict the development of the pet industry. The United States, however, remains our largest market." Innovation at Gex is driven by a team of passionate pet owners, with most of the staff members living with animals, and who really love being around animals. "It means that they seriously think about what customers want," says the president and CEO, who goes on to highlight that this dedication from the team has led to the development of award-winning products such as the All-In-One Aquarium, recognized for its ease of maintenance and animal-friendly features. "By doing things like this, we can make customers happy and distribute something new to the industry," he adds. "Conventionally, fish food is made with fish meal, and now we have replaced them with insect meal protein using black soldier fly larva," explains Mr. Hiroki, who adds that recycling efforts, turning broken glass aquariums into new glass products, have also garnered media attention. Regarding initiative proposals, Gex is a strong supporter of pet ownership as a means to engage with green aspects of everyday life, and of connecting aquariums with education. "We have promoted the idea that keeping pets provides opportunities to reflect on environmental issues and advocated that aquarium keeping is ideal for STEAM education," says Mr. Hiroki. "We conduct classes at kindergartens and elementary schools, and also support biology clubs at junior high and high schools." A significant asset in Gex's global strategy is its Indonesia factory, LIMA TEKNO INDONESIA (LTI), established in 1996. "Our factory in Indonesia was established as the core factory of the Gex Group," says Mr. Hiroki. Initially producing glass aquariums and air pumps, LTI began exporting to overseas markets in 2002. "Today, LTI integrates the Toyota Production System (TPS) to achieve efficient and high-quality manufacturing." Despite challenges posed by the pandemic, LTI expanded its facility in 2022 and moving forward aims to deliver high-quality pet products not only for the domestic market but also to North America, Europe and Asia. Gex is also at the forefront of technological advancements in pet care, focusing on electronic products and Internet of Things (IoT) innovations. "Our strength lies in our know-how with electronic products for cats and dogs," says Mr. Hiroki. "Recently, we have been focused on IoT, such as Auto Feeders, which can be controlled by a mobile phone. We believe that this will be our competitive advantage going forward." Entering new international markets with electronic products, however, presents its own set of challenges due to differing voltage standards. "We started producing DC-type products, which meet different electric standards," Mr. Hiroki explains. "It is our thought that by continuing these kinds of developments, we will be able to apply our products to the global market." While e-commerce plays a significant role in Gex's business strategy, the company emphasizes the importance of balancing online and offline experiences. "Consumers can shop at any time using e-commerce platforms, which is a huge benefit," says Mr. Hiroki. "But we also believe in the importance of retail locations. This is vital for allowing customers to visit and touch the animals." And as customer engagement remains a priority, Gex is looking to bridge the gap by operating its own customer center allowing after-sales follow-up. As it ponders what lies ahead, Gex is clearly committed to encouraging more people worldwide to discover the feeling many already know that comes from sharing life with animals. "I am confident in the goodness of every pet owner, and I aspire to inspire everyone to experience the joy and fulfillment that comes with living alongside an animal," says Mr. Hiroki, with thoughts of continued innovation and expansion, as he seeks new partnerships to bring Gex’s vision to a global audience. "Although we might have good ideas, without the technology to manufacture this and partners to distribute the product, it will remain simply that: an idea," he says. "It is all thanks to our partners that we are able to get our product out into the world." Gex Corporation is evolving from an aquarium maker into a global pet supplier, aiming to enrich human lives and protect the environment through innovative pet products and sustainable practices.

"Gex Corporation is evolving from an aquarium maker into a global pet supplier aiming to enrich human lives and protect the environment through innovative pet products and sustainable practices Gex Corporation is evolving from an aquarium maker into a global pet supplier Japan has seen an increase in pet ownership catalyzed by a variety of factors This primarily includes cats and dogs but also includes fish and other types of popular pets Although there was a decrease in the number of new pets joining families after the pandemic and why do you think pet ownership in Japan is increasing overall children can learn a lot emotionally when taking care of a family pet consumers couldn’t go outside and needed to stay at home Since people wanted to feel the benefits I mentioned the demand for pets increased significantly but now I believe it has smoothed out a little bit In correlation with the increase in pet ownership in Japan the pet supplies market is expected to increase right alongside it the global pet supplies market is expected to reach over USD 450 billion in 2024 and China representing the biggest market opportunities What is your firm doing internationally to capitalize on global opportunities we distribute our own brands through distributors where we also distribute their global brand are there any countries that look particularly appealing for expanding your business The countries we find appealing are India and Indonesia and we can also predict the development of the pet industry the United States remains our largest market your company initially focused on aquariums before introducing the industry’s first air pump series it has expanded its offerings to include a wider range of pet products the company is a comprehensive pet supplier providing and specializing in the manufacturing development of aquariums and products for small animals Can you talk about how your business has evolved over time and what some of your core values are Our motto is “Life with lives innovates future environments.” We set out our business with this strong belief in mind: the belief that the lives of animals enrich humans Our company has evolved from the maker of aquariums to the comprehensive maker of pet supplies so they are a dangerous kind of product by nature We have experienced various recalls of our products we now believe that we are not dealing with pet supplies we are supplying home appliances for humans This is where we thought that we should enhance the quality of products to the same level as human equivalent products there are a lot of experts in the pet supply industry but we decided instead to invite people from home appliance and electronics makers as well as experts from Panasonic | | | | | Previous Next Your All-In-One Aquarium is an innovative overflow aquarium equipped with a slide filtration system that improves maintenance and has an LED feature that creates a bright and vivid environment making the aquarium look beautiful and reducing the light which makes the product more animal friendly This product was also the recipient of a 2023 Good Design award receiving praise for its ease of maintenance What sets the innovation of this product apart and what competitive advantages in your manufacturing and development processes have enabled you to create award-winning products like this one Most of our staff members live with animals so it is clear that they really love being around animals It also means that they seriously think about what customers want all of us are trying to produce something creative some companies that copy the other products and sell them at a cheaper price but our goal is to add additional value to our products we can make customers happy and distribute something new to the industry Its name is derived from the word percolation which is the process of liquid slowly moving through a substance The product is designed to provide maximum comfort for the fish What was the inspiration behind this product and considering this product has made it to the second round of the Good Design Award what do you believe are the benefits you will receive once you win we have already received an award for this product Speaking on the inspiration behind this product we considered what potential customers might want from a product like this by combining the wants with the needs of existing customers while conventional ones have everything inside without the technology to manufacture this and partners to distribute the product It is all thanks to our partners that we are able to get our product out into the world the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development aiming to address socio-economic challenges and enhance environmental protections the UN has the goal of reaching carbon neutrality by 2050 What initiatives have you introduced to reduce your environmental impact and contribute to a more sustainable world SDGs aren’t just something we are focusing on but also something we take very seriously We are actively utilizing biomass in our product development We like to think of ourselves as a pioneer in introducing this material for pet supplies Biomass plastics are used in our pet drinking fountain “Pure Crystal” and Aquarium filter medias.  As such we are replacing about 12 tons of material per year with biomass alternatives we’ve also begun to focus on alternative food materials for pet food.  Conventionally and now we have replaced them with insect meal protein using black soldier fly larva where we also use for our reptile foods.  In response to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted at the United Nations General Assembly in September 2015 GEX has been fully committed to these goals since 2020 We believe that the best way to operate our business sustainably is by focusing on two key areas: what can be achieved through product development and what can be achieved through initiative proposals we have adopted biomass resin for the plastic parts used in refills for aquarium filters and filter-type water dispensers for dogs and cats we have been quick to adopt insect-based alternative proteins for fish Our recycling efforts to regenerate broken glass aquariums into new glass products have also been featured in numerous media outlets we have promoted the idea that keeping pets provides opportunities to reflect on environmental issues and advocated that aquarium keeping is ideal for STEAM education We conduct classes at kindergartens and elementary schools and also support biology clubs at junior high and high schools you also offer a variety of items for cats and dogs This includes your Pure Crystal Water Filter which ensures clean water for both cats and dogs What are your competitive advantages when developing products for both cats and dogs and what growth do you foresee in the cat and dog pet supplies industry not only in Japan but globally Our strength lies in our know-how with electronic products for cats and dogs We believe that this will be our competitive advantage going forward Our company also has expertise in bacteria and bio-science We are thinking about utilizing this expertise in the development of next-generation pet toiletry supplies Have you seen any success with your electronic products in international markets We are now challenging ourselves to enter new markets but it has been very difficult with electronic products due to the voltage differences which meet different electric standards.  It is our thought that by continuing these kinds of developments we will be able to apply our products to the global market E-commerce has really begun driving growth in the pet supplies market as it has in most retail sectors boosting sales and improving customer experiences through data-driven insights as well as expanding global reach Your online shop that offers aquariums and products for cats and dogs demonstrates a strong commitment to leveraging these e-commerce opportunities What role does e-commerce play in your business strategy and how are you using it to boost efficiency Consumers can shop at any time using e-commerce platforms They are also able to select from a wide variety of products We are actively engaged in e-commerce using existing platforms What is different from other categories of daily supplies is that our market won’t grow without an increase in pet ownership The distribution of pet supplies is down since ownership of pets besides fish is down in Japan Online shops are important for our business but we also believe in the importance of retail locations This is vital for allowing customers to visit and touch the animals Another area for improvement of e-commerce is that through this channel we cannot listen to the problems of our customers which is something that can be done at physical locations we have our own customer center where customers can receive advice so too are the inquiries we are receiving online Something that our company really values is the follow-up with customers after sales Your company has an interest not only in the domestic market but also in the international markets such as Indonesia Which countries have you identified as being most appealing for your company’s expansion for Indonesia since we have our own factory and understand the culture and customers we wish to develop the market.    Can you tell us more about the Indonesia factory and the role it plays in your business LIMA TEKNO INDONESIA (LTI) was established on September 16 within the Karawang Industrial Estate in Jakarta the company commenced with the production of glass aquariums and air pumps LTI began exporting to overseas markets such as Europe transitioning from a primarily domestic focus the company embarked on factory management reforms and the development of new operational systems LTI integrates the Toyota Production System (TPS) to achieve efficient and high-quality manufacturing and its production capacity is world-class A significant portion of the glass aquariums and small animal habitats distributed in Japan are manufactured at this facility LTI’s production is not limited to aquariums The company also manufactures various electric products such as filters and heaters for aquarium and the "Pure Crystal" filter media for dogs and cats LTI produces instrument cases for a major musical instrument manufacturer Leveraging the expertise gained from this production The factory's strength lies in its wide-ranging manufacturing expertise across different categories Its ability to combine these elements into innovative products serves as a competitive advantage over other companies the high quality is maintained through close communication between the Japanese design and quality assurance teams and the diligent Overcoming the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of personnel and procurement LTI aims to deliver high-quality pet products not only for the domestic market but also to North America Imagine that we come back in three years and have this interview all over again What goals and dreams do you hope to achieve by the time we come back for that new interview I am confident in the goodness of every pet owner and I aspire to inspire everyone to experience the joy and fulfillment that comes

The Gex games were originally developed by Crystal Dynamics - the same team behind the Tomb Raider series and more recently games like Marvel's Avengers Gex's titles were also previously available on platforms like the Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Color Revealed during the Limited Run Games Showcase I really hope they include the UK and Australian voice tracks Wonder which versions these will be based on Always been funny that Gex only namedrops Bowser in the Playstation version of whichever game that was I would love to save 15% on my car insurance Glad to see Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival finally make its way to the Switch another anthropomorphic edgy character from the 90s Not saying the games are bad because I haven't played them I'm unironically looking forward to these collections of infamously mediocre 90's platformers I feel like i have to buy them as an important piece of history @Lizuka I'm guessing it's the PS1 versions they're using since that one was also released on the Saturn I can make the game look better and play more smoothly on my phone oh jester of amphibious design?As the years built within me Thine tongue emerges from the age of 32 bit glory,On 3DO upon forgotten roads,But now the lizard rises take heed the prophet says,For light doth cast a shadow for Gex shall make his stand,And all those who remember and every babe in lace,For it's about to get stranger than the 4th at Rick James' place @rvcolem1 Oh they're bad But that's strangely part of their charm @rvcolem1 “Poochie died on the way back to his planet” This article obscures the advertising a little bit I love that we're getting all this psone classic games I'm more excited for psone remaster than most of new AAA games now 😃 Took years to finally get a memory card to save the dam game lol @CRB1984 Where’s Poochie @Zeebor15 The original voice actor was Dana Gould @Yousef- 😂😂😂 @rvcolem1 Oh no 😂🤣These games were famously garbage running on their native software let alone the butchered glitchy hell they released for the n64.. but mainly because I only borrowed or rented this one happy that I'll finally be able to now that they're coming also to Switch @CRB1984 haha one of the Simpsons episodes I actually remember @garfreek so these go into the category: "oh I remember this being kinda cool" oh wait this actually sucked Like "master of the universe" starting Dolph Lundgren God I think I played this on the 3DO almost 30 years ago @rvcolem1 One of my favorite movies @rvcolem1 The first Gex was actually a top tier platformer It had a level of polish that definitely set it above almost all other mascot platformers besides what Nintendo and Rare were putting out Graphics were beautiful and controls and gameplay were solid with some neat innovations like Gex being able to traverse ceilings and background walls Voice acting in games was still relatively fresh and Dana Gould delivered an iconic performance Nintendo and Rare had set the bar so high for quality in that new arena that 3D platformers from other companies really suffered in comparison but that first sequel is still a very fun game Especially the PSX version which I feel turned out a little better than the N64 game Part 3 was a little wonky and the gap between it and it's contemporaries had widened even further The legacy of the series still stands however with the first game securing itself as the official mascot game for the 3DO system and the followups being very popular at the time Hopefully you'll give them a try and find some enjoyment from them @TenEighty it is one of the first movies my mom ever took me to as a child It has a special place but it is still terrible SO emulators are not allowed and this is the best they can do for an official release At least have an option for a higher resolution I hope Pandemonium makes its way back one day I remember this being one of the first games I got for it when it (The original Gex) came out The 3d one looks kinda garbage though in the vid do not ask about the price of nostalgia.-Gex @Elitepatriot I thought Gex 3 (the only one I had played on N64 till the battery in my third-party memory card got loose and started erasing my files) was among the PS1 games to have both memory card and password save features they were kind of long and made it desirable to have a memory card to avoid it @Runex2121 I do remember Gex: Enter the Gecko being praised when it was released But maybe that's because it was relatively soon after Super Mario 64 was out (like early 1998) and PS1 owners were looking for something at least halfway decent to compare it to.I know PS1 got some nice full-movement 3D platformers but I think it too some time for them to arrive.Those early days when they had like Blasto Bubsy 3D and Rascal to play with.(Crash 1 and 2 were out but Crash was more two-dimensional in gameplay.) @Rooty No need to be upset I'm honestly excited to revisit these games; especially Gex 3 But if this version of Enter the Gecko doesn't have the Titanic level (from the N64 version) then it's a stretch to call this the "definitive" version @PinderSchloss ...while this uses that dreaded emulation itself but delivering a worse experience than the likes of Duckstation It is disappointing that they're making it look identical to the original 1080p rendering would be a no-brainer when it comes to matching the experience we already get on other emulators and widescreen and 60fps (if possible) would make this worth buying for those of us who already have these games on other platforms This issue comes up a lot with ports/emulations/remasters: a straight copy is fine for making the games available to those who missed them I imagine they'll make their money back just from Dunkey fans It's probably because of his channel that LR hit up Crystal Dynamics or Square or whomever and said this would sell @mikegamer I jest can we just get a nice 3DO compilation to bring back the feels publishers and I know that Way of the Warrior was really bad the switch 2 may be out before we ever see it @JohnnyMind @Not_Soos i remember enjoying the second Gex though replaying it the camera is definitely of its time and can have a mind of its own the third one did feel like it improved on that aspect on the subject of 90s platformers i wonder if the croc games are in any kind of licencing nightmare replayed them relatively not that long ago and aside from the expected psone jank i did still enjoy them @Cipher36 Right on So many that would look beautiful uprezzed to HD or 4K I would love to see more love for the system This year has been pretty special for 3DO fans though with PO'ed and Killing Time getting remastered and now Gex upcoming Imagine a Wing Commander anthology with all of the games brought to console in HD 3DO Road Rash and Need For Speed would be amazing What’s going on with that awful voice….that’s not the original voice @Cipher36 loved way of the warrior White zombie doing the sound track was immense Road rash had sound garden on the sound track too Crash and burn was another game I played a lot of I second your vote for 3DO and salute your brilliant taste in games… I played almost all of your list A LOT @Thomystic I mean Scott the Woz fans will probably also want a copy @AG_Awesome save anywhere But rewinding is ruining the experience in a way but you can ignore it and never use it" The sole fact that the option exists makes it tempting to use it and difficult to resist under pressure though @beartown Then I'd say develop stronger will power to resist 🤷‍♂️ Reminds me of the whole super guide online freak out meltdown Turns out it didn't ruin gaming after all @EVIL-C no @beartown Yes @EVIL-C I don't like it when people glorify "developing a strong will" It's like having these pay-to-win games The fact that you CAN do it makes playing less fun Don't pretend it's a matter of a strong will or whatever It takes away a reward of the challenge if you know that people can finish this game in easier way Scott the Woz bouta havhave field day with this one @beartown I don't worry about what other people are doing I just play the games that look fun to me and try to enjoy them I remember playing the first one on the Panasonic 3DO @rvcolem1 Dolphin Lundgen himself too probably Usually these were impressive graphically or technically...at the time I think the only exceptions are the more cartoony games with high polish like Mario golf Banjo Kazooie and Iggy's werking balls....Oh no that's a milk situation again @Grail_Quest Bravo 👏 @mlt They are awesome @Emacster yup same here @KingMike i love Blasto We can rebuild him make him faster and stronger.Do you know what this reference is Show Comments 41 News Gex Trilogy Confirms Summer 2025 Switch Release, Here's The Official Trailer Nintendo had Super Mario. SEGA had Sonic the Hedgehog. And 3DO had… GEX The James Bond-esque gecko debuted as a console exclusive on Trip Hawkins’ ill-fated format but later launched on SEGA Saturn and PlayStation – before subsequent sequels launched first on Sony’s vastly more popular system While the original game was a 2D side-scrolling platformer, its subsequent sequels adopted a 3D perspective, following the enormous success of Crash Bandicoot and Super Mario 64. And you’ll be able to play all three titles in the GEX Trilogy courtesy of Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine You can get a first look at the gameplay above but they serve as an interesting snapshot of the 90s the second game in the series had a Titanic-themed level the third game had an anime-themed stage with mechs and schoolgirls with pre-orders scheduled to open in the fall And while there’s no release date just yet the entire bundle is expected before the end of the year [source youtube.com] I remember I had a copy of Gex which I bought in Bali for $2 I have a vague memory of the cut scenes using a real actress I loved GEX on the 3DO and while slow paced felt special at the time I still have the original Gex games on PS1 I bought them about 10 years ago just to have them in my collection.Sure they're not that great but they have a lot of charm @Luigia Crash 'N Burn was my first game from Crystal Dynamics since it was the pack-in game for the 3DO I loved Gex as a kid.Learned to hate him as a teenager And have now come full circle to loving the little idiot again In the second game here in the UK it was Leslie Phillips which (now that I think about it) was random as heck I remember my dad agreeing to buy me a game and I randomly picked up enter the gecko due to the cover art This is like an all nighter at Richard Simmons' house This reminds me of a night out with Bill Cosby @MARl0 nice to see another fellow 3DO owner 👍🏻 Hopefully they have three separate trophy list and not just one like the Tomb Raider Collection Legacy of kain is the only franchise left to be revived I prefer a reboot.Gex wasn't my cup of tea Never played Gex 1 but played Gex 2 on PS1 and N64 and 3 on PS1 Nostalgia will play a big part in me resisting these Scott Wozniak and his friends will be happy Crystal Dynamics owned the IP when they were sold to SE Why on Earth would SE want to keep an IP they have never used yet happy to ditch Tomb Raider Gex enter the gecko scared me so much as a kid @Mirror_D_80s it may depend on licensing as Leslie Phillips did voice for the 2nd in UK and he's sadly passed away I really liked the second game and loved Leslie Phillips voicing him even though at the time I didn't realise Still play the first Gex on via backwards compatibility on the PS3 Really looking forward to playing Enter the Gecko and Deep Cover Gecko again and going through the first Gex for the first time kinda miss leading when they literally have a new character model of the Gex in this triller and also the announcement trailer Show Comments 13 News Oblivion Remastered Sales Explode in the US, Becomes Third Best-Selling Game of 2025 25 News Concern Call of Duty Could Be About to Paywall Gameplay Modes 60 Game of the Month Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (April 2025) 32 PS Store Sales Charts The Top Three Best-Selling Games on PS5 Are from Microsoft 122 News Gears of War: Reloaded Remasters the Original Game This August, Confirmed for PS5 Limited Run Games has released new trailers for Fear Effect, Bubsy in: The Purrfect Collection, Fighting Force Collection, GEX Trilogy and the Tomba! games.
