Visuals: The screen cuts into the inside of a swirling vortex, where various people and mathematical symbols are getting sucked into a hole below. The camera pans up and reveals that the hole is the top of a glass bottle. When everything in the vortex is sucked inside, a bottlecap drops down and twists 90 degrees. The cap is yellow with a white stripe. "Genuine" is written in a red stylized font while "GAMES" is etched out in the yellow portions. On the top right is a seal containing an exclamation point, with "ESTABLISHED 2002" surrounding it in a circular arc within a dedicated circle.

Variants:

  • A still version exists.
  • On earlier builds of 50 Cent: Bulletproof, the cap spins into view in an underwater environment with visible bubbles before going back out.

Technique: CGI animation.

Audio: Several whooshes corresponding to the actions.

Availability: It was seen on Fight Club and 50 Cent: Bulletproof.
