I believe the 1900 date is incorrect. The first appears to be:
Frazer, J.G. The Golden Bough : a Study in Comparitive Religion in Two Volumes Macmillan, 1890
Okay, seriously, is the reference to a video game necessary or relevent here? You'll have to provide a lot more works in which the work in question is referenced (I've no doubt there are many) before you can start pointing to kid's games, if you want this entry to be taken seriously.
How are video games less of a legitimate media than the other sources listed? I think that you're being unfairly biased. That the Golden Bough would be referenced in such an outlet shows how far its influence has really reached.
I dont think it's too bad, as a ahort abstract. As for popular culture, The Golden Bough also makes an appearance in "Apocalypse Now" where the book is seen, open, on the night table of Colonel Kurtz, played by Marlon Brando.
