* SequelDisplacement: The 3D games are a lot better known than the first game. Much of the blame for this can be pinned on it being originally exclusive to [[UsefulNotes/ThreeDOInteractiveMultiplayer a failed console]] and being ported to more successful hardware right when the 3D craze was taking off.

%% ZCE * PortingDisaster: The developers of ''Gex: Enter the Gecko'' were unfamiliar with the [=N64=]'s hardware and it shows. The sequel fared somewhat better, but it still didn't quite match the original.

%% ZCE * PortingDisaster: The developers of ''Gex: Enter the Gecko'' were unfamiliar with the [=N64=]'s hardware and it shows. Not only were several lines of dialogue removed, so were a large chunk of the levels, with a single unimpressive ''Titanic'' themed level replacing everything. The sequel fared somewhat better, but it still didn't quite match port also lacks an intro cutscene, an ending, or even a title screen. It seems they mostly got the original.hang of things by ''Deep Cover Gecko'', as that game has no cut levels, has a proper title screen, and replaces the [=FMVs=] with new in-engine cutscenes.

* NarmCharm: The aforementioned one-liners. While intended as [[TotallyRadical the pinnacle of attitude]], many of Gex's quips rely on creaky pop culture references that have only grown more dated with time, often adhere to a hit-and-miss XMeetsY formula, and are thrown out with no particular rhyme or reason. Younger fans have knowingly embraced them as complete cheese.
