Do not buy the Gex Trilogy. It is a completely broken rush job with so many basic problems it's actually hilarious.

Don't believe me? See for yourself.

This is like a birthday party at Jeffrey Epstein's

>>712908692 (OP)
Cool, I shall emulate instead then

say gex

Someone hurry up and confirm this isn't Dolphin Porn already

>>712908921
It's safe. Comes from an arcade piracy group I'm part of.

>Limited Run rushed something out the door

no way!

>>712908692 (OP)
>>712908997
Why would anyone want to? We already know it's the godawful American dub and not PAL kino.

Damn, the PC OST is actually pretty good. Usually the PC versions of game music are horrible but this ain't bad.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zP60bempd0

On that note, why the FUCK didn't they just take the actual PC ports that DO exist and fix up those for a release? Why the fuck are we poorly emulating these games and calling it a remaster?

>>712909097
They recently updated the game with the PAL versions. Not sure if that pixel drain includes that update, though.

I doubt it’s that bad. PC games suck because modern OS’s are fucking trash. Anyone have PS5 version yet :O

>>712909185
It's bad, anon. Really bad.

>absolutely NO upscaling in game
>audio is completely broken, tracks constantly cut in and out
>audio transitions are broken, completely fuck the audio
>removes save system, NEED to use save states
>LITERALLY just a couple of roms packaged inside an EXTREMELY inaccurate and clearly broken emulator

>>712909129

That would require actual effort on Limited Run’s part.

>>712908692 (OP)
Confirmed legit, OP is not a fag

>>712909613
Also can confirm the PAL update is not included in this upload

>>712909129
Gex DCG never got a PC release. Only the first two games.

>>712909086
They didn't even rush it out the door, it was announced two years ago, was supposed to come out last fall, but they delayed it like ten months. This is the version they deemed ready to ship.

>>712909097

>>712909673
I'll wait for the update. Should be soon.

>>712910684
Leslie Philips drips class. He has a voice that makes women's bras fly off with a comedy sound effect.

>>712910813
Yup, just another digital landfill special courtesy of Limited Run. At this point they could slap a $40 price tag on a corrupted ISO and people would still pre-order 10 copies for the “collector’s shelf.”

>>712910832
Is that what the menu looks like? jej

>>712911363
It's the emulator menu. It's accessed by hitting R3 and it's the only means of saving any of the games.

>>712911271
The official copy from LR has PAL now. It's that pirated copy that's useless American slop

>>712908692 (OP)
Limited run aids is known to be shit and the gex thread was made by literal discord shills associated with their parent company to cause fomo. They’ve done this multiple times on other video boards and the mods there found out and got them banned multiple times, yet they still come back with proxies. You brought this upon yourself if you believed this would’ve been a good release

I'm sad bros. The full analog support feels great but there's so many issues with this release that I can't just ignore.

Someone figure out how they added 360 analog movement to Gex so we can add it to Duckstation. They didn't seem modify the game roms at all so it must be something to do with how the emulator interacts with the game when sending inputs.

Is it true that the PAL voices force the game to run at 25fps? They couldn't get the game running with new voices so they just used a PAL ISO and called it a day?

>>712911751
Bro they LITERALLY just put some rom dumps inside an emulator and called it a remaster. You expected effort?

>>712911751
Euro cucks get what they deserve.

A story in three parts

>>712911962
NTSC - never the same colour

>>712908692 (OP)
Duh? People were calling out the trilogy yesterday and an actual shill was damage-controlling near the end of the thread.

>>712909284
>removes save system, NEED to use save states
What.

>>712912269
This is the title screen for ETD. Notice anything missing?

>>712912401
I grew up so you're gonna have to explain it

Meanwhile on Duckstation

>actual true 16:9 Widescreen (with a patch)
>upscaling support
>audio isn't completely fucked
>save system intact

Why would I pay 30 dollars for a worse experience?

>>712912401
And that shill wanted us to buy the trilogy so a new Gex game could be made. They can't even re-release the old games properly.

>>712913182
It's missing the options and save menu (pic related)

And since the save menu is gone, the only way to save the game is using save states

I literally have no fucking clue why they would remove the save system

>>712910832
gextra wide

>>712913294
Anon, he was being a tool, he knows what the problem is.

Fun fact: within the game's data folder, you'll find these three .car files. These are the roms for the PS1 Gex games. You can literally rename them to .bin, run them in Duckstation, and it'll work.

>>712910832
the damage persona 5 did to talentless hack UI designers is irreparable

>>712913649
no bro those are carbon engine exclusive files that they made from scratch. now give us 30 bucks.

Gex is canonically an American and a smug asshole
Dana is the true voice

>>712908692 (OP)
Don’t really care, just wanna 100% and get platinum trophies, 10 bucks per game with some minor upgrades is good for me

>>712910832
Why the persona ui??

>>712913946
Because it's a great way to be lazy while also still looking like you're trying to be stylish.

>>712908692 (OP)

>>712908918

>>712913850
>some minor upgrades

The only upgrade is the analog control. Literally everything else is a major downgrade from just emulating it.

>fake widescreen
>no upscaling options
>broken audio
>removed save system
>no key/gamepad rebinding

I'm honestly kinda bummed this turned out exactly how I expected it to because I was excited at the prospect of analog control in Gex.

>>712910375
kinda sickening honestly
>the fans will buy it anyways and complain and move on, we'll take their money and similarly move on
>>712911495
there are tons of bullshit changes and added issues still. don't be a retard acting like no PAL was the only problem. tell me when i can play the titanic level.
>>712913946
so they can copy something and put no effort in while claiming to be parodying something. the hallmark of someone talentless getting their hands on an IP known for parody

>>712913946

how do you do fellow gamers

>>712913769
I grew up with British Gex, so hearing anything else feels wrong to me.

>>712908692 (OP)
Say Gex

>>712913850
nvm, it’s worse than I thought, I’ll wait for when it’s $5 or something lmao

>>712914236
Gex

>>712910832
That’s not even that bad lmao

OP is a real piece of work

>>712914267

>>712914305
Yes the game looks fine plenty of games do that for widescreen

I think i'll buy it right now because I want to get in on it while people are thinking about it

The price is pretty good for three full games, i don't see the problem at all

I am an organic 4chan poster with no affiliations to anything being discussed in this thread

>>712908692 (OP)
Carbon Engine can't even emulate SNES/Genesis games well, not all that surprised it can't do PS1 either.
Fuck LRGs.

>>712910832
Why does the font remind me of Persona 5?

>>712914689
it's making fun of it by shamelessly using it in a completely straight faced way! laugh! they are referencing a popular game of yesteryear, just like gex referenced popular movies/TV of yesteryear! but with none of the worldplay, irony, or clear attempts at mockery! are you laughing yet?

>Gex flops because it's awful, dev says "I guess people don't buy gex anymore" and thats it
>Gex sells, dev says "people liked it so thats the bare minimum effort we have to put it, next game is worse

>>712915472
Worst part is, all those faggots posting gay gex will probably influence the devs of a hypothetical Gex 4 to make him a faggot instead of the girl-crazy gecko he was in DCG. If they do a fourth game, they should commit to the spy/Austin Powers theme. Maybe pull a twin brother like Bond did, but play it for laughs instead.

>>712908692 (OP)
>LimitedRunGames
Why do Physical faggots continue to support this shit company? They keep releasing broken PHYSICAL AND DIGITAL shit for 50 games running now.

>>712916098

Scalpers are too strong.

>>712916098
No idea, every time it's announced the game is published by LRG I facepalm and move to check other physical games.
They suck and are very overpriced.

>>712908692 (OP)
Put some pants on.

>>712916693
how will he have gex with pants on

I didn't hate Rocket Knight Adventures or Tomba. I do agree LRG needs to burn for jewing people.

So Gex has been revived. How long before this Mascot with Attitude goes back in the grave?

So in other words: $10 * 3 for 3 roms legally. Maybe when they got on sale you can use them in RetroArch and forget these terrible "ports" otherwise.

>Duckstation
What a god emulator

>>712917339
Crash did not have attitude, he was just crazy. And since when were Banjo and Kazooie "mascots with attitude"?

Gex with sex

>>712918116
Do you want eggs with that?

>>712917949
Shame the RetroArch folks bullied him away from emulation.

>>712913340

>>712918052
crash had bits of attitude sprinkled into being a neutral zany cartoon character. they definitely advertised him with tude.

>>712914441
Reddit spacing does not belong on 4chinz but theres a neat place for you
Reddit probably hates gex because it wasnt politically correct or some bs

>>712913189
>no analog controls
cucked

>>712912401
>>712913294
ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!! Removing the save system from Gex 2 is already abhorrent on its own but fucking with the most kino, soulful main menu of all time is absolutely unforgivable. Duckstation will continue to remain the MVP and fuck LRG.

YOU'RE the contrarian KEK

>>712913294
Amazing how companies can't bother to emulate the basic memory card functions in fifth generation consoles. Like it can't be that much work, can it?

>>712919062
Are you tungsten? Because that was a pretty dense post you just made.

>>712919062
reddit does not hate gex. it's the sort of safe politically incorrect thing from a bygone era that middle of the road liberal males would defend.

>712919426
I accept your concession.

>>712919062

>>712919058
This, Crash had the 'tude and the appeal.

>>712919142
Fuck that menu theme is one of the best.

Good thing they prioritized getting ecelebs shilling your collection instead of ironing out the widescreen issues, the disappearing menus and whatnot...

Because that's one that was recommended by my arcade piracy group because it can handle all non-English characters in filenames, as well as supporting unusually large filenames. I dunno, works for me.

>>712920207
For meme arrows, that's about the only reason I've seen
I have no reason to lie, im in my 30s and played WoW in 2008, you really think I wouldn't have been on 4chan? Even before then we had meatspin 2 girls 1 cup etc and nothing was enough to satisfy my teenage lust for fucked up shit, of course I lurked gore threads on b, u dum candyassgot roodypoo

>>712920676
nope. plenty of people spaced their posts without greentext ever since 4chan has existed.

>>712920346
Not reading all that empty space, why don't you go play some gacha games and watch v-tubers?

>>712908692 (OP)
LRG had a hand in this, never trust LRG.

>>712920797
Unironically adding empty lines of space is for faggots, you will not change my mind
Wow look how great the empty space is, not even for a meme arrow


Great stuff

>>712921105
already moving the goalposts?

>>712921160
Wowie, you better hurry to r/4chan so you can show them how you totally epicly pwned me in an internet argument

>Gex thread devolves into newfags arguing about who is more Reddit than who
Makes sense. These games are mediocre as fuck and become a chore after about an hour. I feel bad for the idiots who actually paid for this kek.

>>712921339
Why do you do the oldfag larp? What is the point?

>>712921736
If you still think I'm a newfriend at this point ur more retarded than I, and I have nothing to gain from u thinking otherwise just know ur retarded
Id assume anyone who is a fan of gex is an oldfag, zoomies only care about fortnite

Fun fact: You can inject literally any PS1 game you want into the Gex Trilogy and it will work. All you have to do is rename your .bin file to "g_data_1.car" and replace the one in the Gex Trilogy > assets > data folder and it will work.

Hilarious.

>>712922559
I'm not convinced. Let's see it run Dr. Slump.

>>712922559
Can it do medievil? Tried playing it on some random website and it's bugged, can't get very far

>>712922775
Ah, I didn't think about region locks. Give me a minute and I'll check.

>>712922796
Almost certainly.

>>712919142
>>712912269
Removing the save system is totally normal Nintendo emulators cost $40 a year and you need to use save states because SRAM is not emulated

>>712922775
Dr. Slump shows the Bandai logo, but the game crashes immediately after. I'm not sure if it has to do with the region lock, or if it's the fact that Dr. Slump has two .bin files and I can only inject one.

I've tried injecting .chd converted files too, but that doesn't seem to work. I'm about to test Medieval.

Limited Run Games are such a fucking joke, why do people still give them money.

>>712922829
Neat, but when are we getting the physical box for gex? Thought id have it in time for release...not like the steam code would work until then anyways

>>712923107
bootlickers love the "official", no matter how unbelievably bad it is

>>712923185
Bro, this is Limited Run Games we're talking about. Expect the physical stuff in like a year or so.

No I'm not joking.

>>712923225
Expect it in a year or two and to be sold out quicker than you'd think because it's all collectors and scalpers.

>>712923074
MediEvil will work. See if it'll run MediEvil 2 with music. If not then they're basically using the same emulator as the PSN one.

>>712923305
Yeah, MediEvil works. However I'm not sure how I can solve the problem of one game having multiple .bin files, so you probably can't play it to completion.

I'll test MediEvil 2 next.

>>712923185
>physical box
They still make those?

>>712923384
Music in the NTSC-U version of MediEvil 2 tends to stop playing a little into the first level. I think everything on the menu works, but after some time in the level it stops playing music indefinitely.

>>712909613
Sure thing, notOP. Now show virustotal results for the archive and every file in it.

>>712923407
Yeah and I paid like $40 or some shit, they even had a deluxe bunduru for some obscene price, can't even justify the $40 other than i just like gex but I won't even get it for a long time even though the game is out supposedly

>>712923794
You're an honest to God Gex fan?? For what purpose?

I gad Gex 3 as a kid and liked it at first but grew bored with it because of the difficulty. I went back and replayed it recently out of curiosity and frankly, I didn't miss much. Also went and played Gex 2 out of curiosity and found it to be even worse than 3. They're pretty lame games.

>>712910832
I'm oofing so hard, my dude.

>>712923490
I played a good 10-15 minutes into MediEvil 2. I got outside the museum. The music never stopped. But since the game uses two .bin files, there's no way to actually complete the game.

>>712923993
Idk, just natural for a tendie after mario, banjo, conker, etc. I didn't play much of 3, but apparently gex 64 is gex 2 though I never got the true experience:
Nintendo 64 version
Due to hardware limitations, the Nintendo 64 version, called Gex 64, features limited audio, a different introduction, no main menu, and no cut scenes in comparison with the PlayStation and Windows versions. Three secret levels, one normal level, and two bonus levels are removed. The Nintendo 64 version includes the exclusive "Gecques Cousteau" level centered on the RMS Titanic and plays almost entirely underwater.

>>712924087
>music never stopped
Damn, that's pretty awesome. Too bad about not being able to finish it.

>>712908692 (OP)
>It is a completely broken rush job with so many basic problems it's actually hilarious.

So, like the original games?

>>712924539
Actually, the problems are related to poor emulation

>>712923107
Collectors and especially hoarders that pretend they're collectors are so materialistic they put women to shame in that department and are easily tricked.
Either that or they are aware but they do not care as long as the physical box is sealed and in good condition.
But the uninformed will do it no matter what. Even just had a friend recently claim we're "in a golden age" for re-releases because he doesn't know how bad it actually is right now. And other friends just picked it up without question.

>>712924862
I was putting the empty space there ironically...please believe
But honestly if yall want to put empty space lines that serve zero purpose go for it, my judgement of it means nothing in the end

>>712909097

>>712922559

>>712926683
I'm a burger but the Gex 2 PAL voice is too great not to include. The real crime is Gex's PAL voice in Deep Cover Gecko where he's suddenly black for some reason.
