Indie developers will be able to pitch their ideas to Square Enix, who will either accept or reject them. The accepted ideas will be presented to the public, who can then vote on which games they would like to have developed. Successful games will then be submitted for crowdfunding campaigns and hopefully acquire enough to allow them to be developed.

IPs like Gex, Fear Effect, and Anachronox are the first games to be offered for revamping. Square Enix says they are not necessarily looking for direct sequels to these titles, and suggests that a game like Gex could be adapted into a side-scroller or turn-based strategy game. The company will take a 10% "licensing fee" in addition to the base 10% they get from net sales revenue. they intend to add more IPs to the list of available Collective games, but for now, they want to "start with those and see what the response is like."

Some good ole Gex being reinvented sounds great to me. I sure miss the little guy.

Duuuude I remember playing Gex 3 or something when I was younger. I'd love to see a new one. Wasn't the game a little risque and kind of edgy? I don't remember much, but I kind of remember the game not being super kiddy so I could see it being brought back as something like Conker's Bad Fur Day or something. Hopefully whatever people pitch to Square is good.

Not that I know of. The topic may have been about their full program and not this specific piece of information brought out today.

The article in question actually sources the GameSpot article which was from a few days ago, so that's probably what I was thinking of.STILL MORE GEX PLEASE.
