Logo: Against a black BG, we see a dark blue Philips logo (A shield shape with "PHILIPS", in white, at the top, with a dark blue circle containing wavy lines and some stars at the bottom). The circle transforms into a CD and flips around as the shield morphs into a bright blue rectangle, with "PHILIPS" left intact. The CD inserts itself into the rectangle, forming a white line. The words "INTERACTIVE" and "MEDIA" appear above and below the line, respectively. The logo then goes "3D" at the end. Variants: A still version exists, with "DISTRIBUTED BY" over the logo. You can find this on Mad Dog McCree. Sometimes on the still version, "INTERACTIVE" is dropped from the logo. "PHILIPS" drops down near the line, and the rectangle is skinny. On some Philips Funhouse games, more effects can be shown. For example, the closing version in Labyrinth of Crete grows eyes inside P's and licks itself. FX/SFX: The transformation effects. Cheesy Factor: The animation, like the game following it, is extremely cheap. Music/Sounds: It starts out with a deep bass chord, which culminates in a synth fanfare. Availability: Extremely rare. Appears when you boot up a Philips CD-i console. The full logo (with music) was even shown on an episode of G4's Game Makers chronicling The Legend of Zelda. It is shown on the earliest games published for DOS, like International Tennis Open. Scare Factor: Low, because of the dark atmosphere and music.
