Background: The Xbox is a video game console owned by Microsoft.
Xbox
(2001-2005)
Nickname: "The Green Blob" "The Lab"
Logo: We see a green blob formed in a green and black laboratory. It keeps moving and moving, but everything zooms out in green light and we see a large green, pointy X. Below it is "XBOX", also in green. In a few seconds, the Microsoft byline is seen.
Variant: An alternative version can be seen if aan badlyXBOX scratchedgame Xboxis DVDinserted orinto CDa isDVD inserted.player. We see an exploding green flash with green dots and they all form a green bubble circle. It zooms in when we see bacteria-like things, and then green flash zooms in the Xbox logo without the "X". It shines and two lines make it black and turns green again, and in a few seconds, it EXPLODES!
FX: The blob and "X" being formed. The alternative version had great CGI.
Music/Sounds: Some deep synth bass notes with thunderclaps, followed by a high-pitched synthesized tune. The alternative version had a synthesized rock tune, and an exploding sound in the end.
Availability: Seen on the startup of an Xbox system.
Scare Factor: Low, due to the green blob being formed. Nightmare for the alternative version. The explosion freaks people out and the music is WAY TOO LOUD!

Xbox 360
(2005- )
Nickname: "The X Sphere"
Logo: We first see the top of a large sphere against a white BG in dim light. As the room begins to light up, the large, pointy green "X" lands on the right side of the sphere and shoots out a green ripple. The sphere then rapidly zooms out with a green aura and spins around clockwise so that the "X", which is deeply cut through the sphere, faces us. Another green ripple shoots out from the sphere, turning the BG pale green and forming the words "XBOX 360" below, with "XBOX" in green, "360" in gray, and the middle line of the "B" extending slightly out to the left. The sphere shines, and a small black Microsoft logo fades in below seconds after.
FX: The sphere and lighting effects.
Music/Sounds: A dreamy synth tune with a few whooshes as the sphere forms. It ends with another whoosh (from the XBOX 360 game commercials) when the words are formed below.
Availability: Seen on the startup of an Xbox 360.
Scare Factor: Minimal to low. The X might be scary, but its a favored logo among many.
