Logo descriptions by shnick1985 Video captures courtesy of shnick1985

Background: Phoenix Games was a European game developer and publisher. They are infamous for collaborating with the German animation studio Dingo Pictures, and featuring their films on their games, as well as producing their own slew of shovelware titles. The company was likely formed sometime in 2003, and it began to develop titles for the PlayStation, PlayStation 2, and Nintendo Wii.

1st Logo (2002?-2004?)

Logo: We see a still image of a shield (which has a shining effect) containing an image of a phoenix against a blue and orange background (which could be best described as resembling a sunrise).

Variant: On some releases (Mainly kiddy games) the logo is drawn more cartoony.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on PlayStation games produced by the company. Also makes an appearance on Dead Eye Jim for the PlayStation 2.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (2003-2010)

Logo: On a black background, an orange line draws the image of the phoenix from before. Once it's complete, the logo lights up and forms the shield from the last logo, which lights the logo on fire for a few seconds before the flames die down.

FX/SFX: The line drawing the phoenix, the light shining, and the flames on the completed logo. Not bad for animation, at least better then most of their "films" they have on their video games!

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Seen on PS2 games produced by the company, like the Spanish video game ¡Qué Pasa Neng!.Also seen on some Wii titles from Data Design Interactive and movies released by Dingo Pictures.

Editor's Note: None.
