I'd also mention a book I read called Superfolks by Robert Mayer, although I can't recommend it, it is the only other book I've read that is crammed with as many pop culture references as Ready Player One. It isn't 80scentric as it was written before that decade, and the subject is superheroes, not cyberpunk, but like I said, if you want to see a lot of pop culture references, it has that. (less)
