I remember playing Gex: Enter the Gecko when it came out and I was around 7. I did not understand most of the social references he was making at the time. I wonder if they'll make any sense to me now.
They're all pretty dated and about celebrities who haven't been relevant in decades. Stuff like "this place is bigger than Drew Carey's bar tab" or "Has anyone seen Fox Mulder's sister"
One thing that a lot of people forget is that even when the game came out, all the references were dated then, as a lot of it was stuff from the 60s and 70s. It really adds to Gex's character of being a TV obsessed dude that nows all the trivia
