      To be fair the Gex games were for teens and we're rated, T. I'm pretty sure the references were more for the writers and anyone else who grew up during the 50s through 70s. I have a feeling that CD probably didn't care if most children didn't understand the references in the 3 Gex games.

    More specifically on the Jerry Garcia tap water joke, it was specifically LSD that Jerry and his crowd were known to dabble heavily in. There was an incident on Playboy After Dark, when the Grateful Dead were on the show to perform. One of the sound guys for the GD clashed with the TV stations sound guys, and decided to spike the coffee with LSD as a prank. By the end of the show everyone's dancing like mad to "turn on your lovelight" while the host is barely able to string a sentence together.

    I really like this video, many people wrongly assume that Gex is outdated and "stuck in the 90s", when in fact most of his references are based on classic film and pop culture, so it's classic, not outdated.

    • @gnbman

      You have a point, but I dont think it makes a lot of sense to release a game that will mostly be played by teens and kids, packed with jokes referencing things far before their time, rather than referencing things they watch, see advertised, or see their parents watch.

    • @NewCanada
      @NewCanada 3 роки тому +19

      @@gnbman It was made by people who grew up during those decades they obviously did it for them. Plenty of creators do that with things they make. Gex shouldn't be any different. I mean he's a talking gecko who is addicted to TV during the 90s. Of course, he's going to reference pop culture from decades prior. People during the 90s had a huge nostalgia for the 50s - 70s. Plenty of things targeted towards children during the 90s made reference to those decades. Though I'd argue that the Gex series isn't really for anyone under 15 personally. That's just my opinion though.

      Agreed. Everyone kind of forgets that before the 2010's, most people who watched modern TV and movies also got a lot of exposure to older shows and movies since they were often used as reruns and filler and were referenced in shows that were current.

    Games like High on Life make me appreciate the humor of the Gex series. Even when the jokes fail, they are at least quick and have some degree of wit. High on Life's humor overstays it's welcome and is completely reliant on the Rick and Morty formula, which got old really quick after the second season.

    Joe Piscopo was a popular cast member of Saturday Night Live shortly after the departure of Lorne Michaels; up until that point the show struggled to prevent its greatest cast members from leaving and becoming famous movie stars, so many jokes were made at Piscopo's expense for his inability to do the same. Obviously the show does not have this problem anymore.

      Some of these I did get as a kid, especially the old sitcoms (thanks to watching Nick at Nite). As for the humor and references, it was more in line for teenagers and young adults. Heck, when advertising the first game, they mentioned that Dana Gould (Gex’s voice actor and writer of his quips) was best known for his stand-up comedy special on HBO, so they knew their target audience would be young adults.

      Gex is probably too young to have been born during WW2 so I doubt he qualifies for the Boomer generation. He was probably born during the 60s or 70s. Either 74 or 64 would be my guess.
