Logo: On a black background, a white silhouette of a snake slithers along from bottom to top of the screen, just as five large white bands draw on-screen with a fish-eye lens effect applied. As soon as the shorter fifth band is drawn, the bands zoom out and rotate about to reveal that they were actually five capsule-shaped lines forming a abstract snake coiled on itself, while it glows a color. Stopping in the center, it loses its glow and moves to the left while heavily getting distorted by a ripple effect, and "ANACONDA" sliding out with said effect. They both stop rippling for a few seconds, before rippling again and disappearing in a flash of light.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: A dramatic synth entry with hiss-like sounds.

Availability: Not very rare in Europe, appears on Overclocked and Undercover. It's more common on German releases, such as Runaway 2 (including the demo version).
