Gex 2: Enter the Gecko was released in 1998 for PlayStation and Nintendo 64, starring the wisecracking gecko Gex in a series of television and movie parody worlds. Its Matterhorn themed area played on mountaineering and winter sports clichés, fitting the game's habit of spoofing popular culture in every stage. Clips from the game later circulated on soundboards as short reaction sounds, and this Matterhorn moment survived because its sense of triumph translates easily to modern gaming edits, streams and challenge videos shared online today.
