Background: Fox Interactive is a video game publisher and developer mainly concerned with titles based on 20th Century Fox properties, such as "The Simpsons", "Family Guy", "Futurama", the "Alien and Predator" film franchises, "ID4: The Game", "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", "The X-Files" and the "Die Hard" series of films. They have also been involved with original titles, including "Croc: Legend of the Gobbos" and "No One Lives Forever". The company was formed on December 31, 1994. Its first video game was "The Pagemaster". In 2006, when 20th Century Fox retires the Fox Interactive name, the publisher was renamed 20th Century Fox Games.


1st Logo
(1994-1996)

Nickname: "The Universal Globe Rip-Off"

Logo: On a white background, we see a still image of the artwork version of the Fox Interactive logo. Underneath is the words "A UNIT OF FOX, INC." in small bold letters.

Variant: On the Genesis version of "The Pagemaster", the logo is on the white border and the background is black.

FX: None, it's a still logo.

Music: The 16-bit version of the full 20th Century Fox fanfare.

Availability: Can be seen on "The Pagemaster" and "The Tick" on SNES and Genesis.

Scare Factor: None, just a soft, beautifully 16-bit fanfare.


2nd Logo
(1996-2002)

Nickname: "The CGI Universal Globe Rip-Off"

Logo: On a black background, we see four searchlights surrounding the box, and possibly a globe with a "fire" behind it then the fire burns. As the fire disappear, the word "FOX", in the same font as the movie logo, reveals around the globe and "INTERACTIVE" appears under it. The logo "shines" as it pauses.

FX: The searchlights, the "fire" burning behind the globe, the logo shining.

Music: The second half of the 20th Century Fox fanfare.

Availability: Seen on "Die Hard Trilogy" on Sega Saturn, Sony Playstation, and PC. Also, it appears too on "Croc 2", "World's Scariest Chase Scenes", "ID4: The Game" and "Alien Trilogy" among other games.

Scare Factor: None, just a soft, beautifully fanfare in final notes.


3rd Logo
(2002-2006)

Nickname: "20th Century Fox Turning to Fox Interactive"

Logo: We see the structure that reads "20th CENTURY FOX" in the Fox logo font, already formed. Then the structure turns, revealing an orange Los Angeles and Hollywood skylines (from the 1994 20th Century Fox logo) in the distance, as a smoke in the searchlights appear. The structure changes to "FOX INTERACTIVE" in the 20th Century Fox font, in the city. When the logo was formed, there's a car on a table.

FX: The "20th Century Fox" structure changing to "Fox Interactive".

Music: Same as the 20th Century Fox music used from 1997 to today.

Availability: No longer current, since Fox Interactive was renamed to 20th Century Fox Games. It was seen on "The Simpsons: Hit & Run".

Scare Factor: Same as the second logo, so none.


4th Logoe.
(2006- )

Logo: The current 20th Century Fox logo from 1994-present.

Trivia: The first game to use this logo was the video game Ice Age 2: The Meltdown.

FX: The same as the 20th Century Fox movie logo from 1994 to present.

Music: The same as the 20th Century Fox movie logo from 1994 to present.

Availability: First seen on the video game Ice Age 2: The Meltdown. It could be seen on new 20th Century Fox games. The only Fox game that it does not have this logo is The Simpsons Game, due to plastered over with the 20th Century Fox Television enhanced logo.

Scare Factor: You guessed, none!
