Virgin Interactive

Founded in 1981 by Richard Branson, Virgin Interactive was the gaming side of Virgin Enterprises, and went defunct in 2003.

They did have one scary logo, and that is the Eye Logo which debuted in 1995.

1st version opens with an eye with the words 'PICTURE START' and it moves left to right few times, with technological stuff, with a Channel 4 like logo on the bottom left. After few seconds, the eye is still open, with a red ball with Virgin writt

en on it, and Interactive (in capitals) Entertainment (in lowercase) below. A variant with simply Interactive exists, but on some games.

The 2nd version is the same, but with the eye closing and with the horizontial shield from the 1997-2003 logo which can be seen on boxarts.

Scare Factor:

1995-1997: Medium to nightmare, due to the in-your-face eye and the sudden, loud music.

1997-1999: High to nightmare; the eye throbbing at the end makes it even worse.
