Gex Trilogy is the definitive edition of the classic platforming series with Gexcessive attitude, complete with Gextras like rewind and save anywhere. Relive Gex's snark-laced adventures through the warped lens of twentieth-century pop culture and use your Gexterity to survive an onslaught of television-themed challenges.
Even a lost island hideaway in the wet South Pacific isn't far enough away from the long arm of Rez. While GEX was whiling away the hours living on the fruits of his recent successes, the madman of the Media Dimension was working on his new hobby - secret agent-napping. Agent Xtra was now struggling for her freedom as a hostage in the lair of Rez. As a master of disguise, GEX had his work cut out for him. Another descent into bad TV movies is at hand. To the GEXCaves!
When Gex is watching TV one day, he discovers that Rez has kidnapped Agent Xtra (the agent from Gex: Enter the Gecko's backstory), head of the TV Terrorist Defense Unit, to get to him. He teleports to the batcave-like lair he has in the Media Dimension, and begins another adventure. Each level parodies a certain aspect of television culture (here the levels exist as stand-alone channels). Gex enters each level through a television set. He must collect remote controls to advance to the next level in order to complete his mission and rescue Xtra. This N64 port removes some suggestive content.

Each character occupies the same screen but they run along on different planes. Crash's gameplay is mostly the same as before, he can still do his trademark spin attack, double jump and body slam moves. The originality comes in his duo with Dr. Cortex, as he can throw him to places he can't reach himself or use him as a hammer to slap enemies. The consistent conflict between both heroes causes many funny situations.
