Background: The core of Mass Media was formed as Philips
P.O.V. Entertainment Group in 1991, but left in 1995 to Time Warner. When the latter was shut down, Mass Media became independent until February 2007, when it was acquired by THQ. It was shut down in 2008.

(Late 1990s-2008)

Logo: On a black background, a purple elephant is shown standing on a TV. It backs up, then blows its trunk. The TV switches on, and shoots out rays that form "mass media", with a purple dot between the words, the TV and the elephant glow.

Variant: A still version exists. The letters there are much darker and smaller. A black and white version appears on The Simpsons: Skateboarding.

FX/SFX: The elephant moving, the TV noise and rays creating the logo.

Music/Sounds: Some crickets and other jungle sounds, the elephant blowing its trunk, and several static sounds with a whoosh.

Availability: Can be found on games like Pac-Man Fever and Muppets Party Cruise, among others. The still version appears on Namco Museum for the Game Boy Advance and N64.

Editor's Note: None.
