The Final Word game review

Gex -- Crystal Dynamics

Dr. Otto
After many moons comes this much delayed platformer and I've gotta say it was worth the wait. Lots of technique here as you can stick to walls and ceilings and use a variety of power-ups to defeat Rez and escape the Media Dimension. I'll admit I wasn't familiar with Dana Gould before ths game, but his cracks and one-liners were genuinely funny and are a major addition to the feel of this game. Platform gamers should zip out and get this one, and keep it in your permanent collection... It's very well executed. The graphics are phenomenal (specifially in Kung-Fuville) as are the tunes, and Gex controls remarkably well. A joy from start to finish.
