Logo (January 14, 1994-June 28, 1999)


Visuals: On a gray background, there is an "X" (looking similar to the modern Xbox logo) being formed from the background, with a blue shadow underneath. A blue rectangle with "XATRIX" in it fades in below the "X", and then, "entertainment" fades in below "XATRIX".

Technique: Simple animation.

Audio: A synth note, then a four-note chime tune, ending in a synth flourish.

Availability: Seen on many games from the company, such as Cyberia and Redneck Rampage.
