Background: Hasbro Interactive was the interactive division of Hasbro, Inc. It was founded in 1995 and was purchased by Infogrames in January 2001 and later became a part of Atari. Their president was Thomas Dusenberry (although he was called "Tom" in the games).
1st Logo
(1995-1996)
![[Untitled]](http://image.wetpaint.com/image/3/Dw_N1UDQUgMfs_fIEvAvWA17381/GW260H195 "[Untitled]")
Logo: On a black background, we see a white rectangle with the word "HASBRO" in green on the top. The word "ELECTRONIC" in Times New Roman font with a purple Saturn-like planet with a red atom revolving around in place of the "O" The word "ENTERTAINMENT" in purple is seen below "ELECTRONIC".
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: On the earliest games by Hasbro, such as the first release of Monopoly.
Scare Factor: None.
2nd Logo
(1996-2000)
Nicknames: "Interceptor", "The Space Triangle", "Hasbro Triangle"
Logo: We see a triangular object (possibly rocket) quickly moving towards us. Suddenly an intercepting rocket appears, leaving a colored slide, and crashes
the triangular rocket. All the action bumps into the screen, forming the Hasbro triangle logo, surrounded by many descending sparks.
Variants:
FX/SFX: The rockets moving and the explosion.
Music/Sounds: A rocket whistle and the bang sounds.
Availability: The animated version is seen on Gunship! and Squad Leader. The still version is seen on other games.
Scare Factor: Low to medium, the rocket moving and exploding near to you is not a calm thing.
3rd Logo
(1997-1999)
Nicknames: "Rolling Stones", "The Space Triangle II", "Hasbro Triangle II"
Logo: We see five white dots moving clockwise by a spiral towards the center. There, they merge and form a spinning blue pyramid with a big blue
sphere carved on its sides. The pyramid begin to rotate and five white spheres pass it, making it colorized. Then the spheres appears again, spin around the pyramid (which becomes 2D) and takes their usual places on the Hasbro logo. The words "HASBRO Interactive" moves in with a door-closing effect and the logo sparkles.
FX/SFX: All the animation in the logo.
Cheesy Factor: Nice concept, but the music seems to be a bit synchronized.
Music/Sounds: Various ambient sounds and a fanfare-like tune near to the end.
Availability: Seen in several games for PC. Some examples are Stuart Little: Big City Adventures,The Game of Life, Jeopardy, Monopoly Star Wars and Axis & Allies.
Scare Factor: None.
4th Logo
(1999-2001)
Nicknames: "Ball Triangles", "The Space Triangle III", "Hasbro Triangle III"
Logo: We see a blue 3-D circle on a blue background. Then it turns into a green one on a green background. The pattern continues (yellow, orange and red) until the logo forms. This logo is more elaborate, with reflections and 3D effects. After the logo is complete, the logo disappears in a white flash.
FX/SFX: TBA.
Music/Sounds: Starts with a crashing sound, then a humming sound, followed by electronic sound effects culminating into 5 synth notes and a whoosh sound at the end. On some games, the music is out of sync.
Availability: Seen on most games by Hasbro Interactive, like Beast Wars. (except these: Tonka Raceway, Tonka Search & Rescue, Battleship, Monopoly (the 1999 version, which had the next logo instead), and Yahtzee).
Scare Factor: None.
5th Logo
(1999-2000)
Nicknames: "Electrons", "The Space Triangle IV", "Hasbro Triangle IV"
Logo: Some colored electrons move around a blue atom. The camera zooms-out to reveal the space full of debris, then the triangle cuts off the space and makes the blue sphere inside it, surrounded by electrons as in the usual Hasbro logo. The logo is outlined. Suddenly the red electron enters, making the way to its place and the logo shines to reveal "LET'S PLAY!" below the picture.
FX/SFX: The color electrons moving.
Music/Sounds: A "sshhh" sounds of flying electrons, followed by an ascending noisy tune.
Availability: Very rare, as it was seen on only two games: Frogger 2 for the PlayStation and PC, and the 1999 PC version of Monopoly. Both are hard to find now.
Scare Factor: Low.

4th Logo
(1997-2001) Nicknames: "Ball Triangles", "The Space Triangle III", "Hasbro Triangle III" Logo: We start on a white background, and then a blue background with the giant blue ball fades in. It then becomes darker in the background, and the coding zooms out as the rest continue. When the logo is formed, the coding continues to be seen animating in the balls excluding the giant ball. The logo suddenly ends in a flash from the words. Variants: On some games, the logo starts and ends by a fade effect. On the MicroProse games, the 9 rectangles slide instead of ending the logo in a flash, then the MicroProse logo proceeds. FX/SFX: The logo forming. Music/Sounds: At the beginning, the bang sound is heard. Then a lab-like sound and the electric sounds when the balls zoom out. Then a connected whoosh when the logo finishes. Sometimes, the logo is out of sync. Music/Sounds Variants: The earlier games had the low-pitch version of the sounds. On the MicroProse games, the next logo is used instead, and then the MicroProse music at the end. Availability: Very Common. First seen on Monopoly for PS1 (the European version which had the 2000 Infogrames logo instead). Also can be seen on Beast Wars and The Next Tetris for PS1, among others. Don't accept these games to appear: Tonka Raceway, Tonka Search & Rescue, Battleship, Monopoly (the 1999 version, which had the next logo instead.), and Yahtzee. Although, the 2nd logo is seen on the cover while this is used in-game. Scare Factor: None. |

2nd Logo (1996-2000) Nicknames: "Interceptor", "The Space Triangle", "Hasbro Triangle" Logo: We see a triangular object (possibly rocket) quickly moving towards us. Suddenly an intercepting rocket appears, leaving a colored slide, and crashes the triangular rocket. All the action bumps into the screen, forming the Hasbro triangle logo, surrounded by many descending sparks. Inside the triangle, we can see a red ball (first), then an orange ball (second), then a yellow ball (third), then a purple ball (fourth), then a blue ball (fifth), and finally, a giant blue ball looking like an Earth. Variants: The still version is much more common. The logo can have an outline, for example in H.E.D.Z, where it share places with Vis Interactive plc logo (guessing the Demo version). FX/SFX: The rockets moving and the explosion. Music/Sounds: An uplifting whistle-like sound when the rocket flies. Then a short rock note when the sparks appear over the logo. Availability: The animated version is seen on Gunship!, Squad Leader, and Frogger 2 for Dreamcast. The still version is seen on other games. Scare Factor: Low to Medium, the rocket moving and exploding near to you is not a calm thing.
