If a new Gex game was to be released nowadays it would be quite different. No one really watches tv anymore, everything is on streaming services. Gex could still quote movies, but he could even quote YouTubers too right? It'd certainly be interesting!

Oh they could still make it work in todays world. Pop Culture is still huge especially amongst the younger age groups.

TV itself may not be as popular, but TV shows are still watched.  I could see Gex making some The Walking Dead or Game of Thrones references.

He looks as bad as Glenn after Negan got ahold of him.

I'd bet other Pop Culture references would include The Kardashian family, Jersey Shore, and/or any of the last few Presidents.

Pop culture references can shift, it's not hard to keep them in play in a Gex-like fashion!  There's room in this gaming world for Gex :D

Every generation has its own pop culture. While the pop culture scene of the 1990s is not evident, we still have pop culture.  Cable TVs are still around and Cable TVs still run TV shows. We no longer have BLockbuster but we still watch TV shows on Netflix.  The new game can incorporate new trends and culture.

This is very true, much like with everything it will always adapt to what is new and I see that happening if we ever saw a brand new Gex game as well.

Sure the game would look more modern but that would be what we expect now with any new game and I feel it would be refreshing as well.
