Once you shut Gex up, this becomes the cure for insomnia, 26 June 2007
7/10
Author: ReeperTheSeeker from United States

I enjoyed a lot of N64 games and Gex 64 was one of them. Gex is a charming little game which goes by the same concept as Mario 64, but instead of stars, you collect remotes. The story goes that the TV loving gecko Gex (ironically has nothing to do with Geico) is sucked into TV land by the evil Rez. So basically you go around, entering different TV based stages to collect remote and all the while Gex says these Pop-culture ridden quotes that are good for a laugh. But after an hour of this, Gex just gets annoying and you just want him to shut up! Luckily there is an "STFU" option that grants you sweet serenity. No offense, Dana Gould, but i can only stand you for an hour, no more. The game offers up some challenges and is engaging but after an hour without Gex's witty sass you start to fall asleep. Then you realize shutting Gex's banter up was like shutting the snooze button off on your alarm clock. I don't know why the game starts to put me to sleep, maybe it's the graphics or the music or the sound effects. I honestly cannot tell you. I seriously thought at one point my eyes learned how to fall asleep while opened. I enjoyed the challenge the game gave me but after 2 maybe 3 hours I want to take a nap afterwards. I do like the game but it's one of those games you should play for an hour and go do something else before your brain turns to mush. And beating Rez is not rocket science, just be on the alert and have good reflexes, meaning don't fight him after 4 hours of game play.

All and all, i give it a 7, it's fun for passing the time.
