Absolute Entertainment(United States)

Background:Absolute Entertainment was a video game publisher that was based in Glen Rock, New Jersey, & later on in Upper Saddle River in the same state. With its development house Imagineering, Absolute entertainment released titles for PC, as well as consoles such as the Atari 2600, Atari 7800, Amiga, Sega Master System, Sega Genesis, Sega CD, NES, SNES, Game Boy, & Game Gear. The company was formed by former Activision employees in 1986 by Dan, & Garry Kitchen, along with a few others. The company name was chosen as it was alphabetically above Activision, which would imply that they were the superior ones. After some poorly received titles in 1995, they would get defunct in the 3rd quarter of 1995.

Logo 1:An orb appears on screen. Some triangles later fly in front of the orb, looking like a pyramid. The word, "ABSOLUTE"(part of the company's name) appears below it.

Variants of logo 1:A smaller, much rarer variant exists on a preview of their cancelled Battletech Sega CD game. Higher pitched versions also exist.

Logo 2:We are set in space with a bunch of orbs here, and there (they may be planets, but they have no textures) along with the Absolute Entertainment symbol already fully formed.

Logo 3:We're in space again, but this time we see just the orb which has some green shapes of the continents. The background then lightens up, and the 1st word of the company name, and the triangles start happening on-screen along with some shine on the letters. It then fades to black.

Variants of logo 3:A still version exists on the 3DO version of Rise of the Robots.

Why it's a ripoff
It's hugely similar to the Sierra logo from 1992.
