'''Logo:''' On a black background, a shiny version of the Midway logo flips quickly towards the screen. When it gets extremely close, an explosion appears behind it. Then the logo moves back slowly as the explosion dissipates. As this happens, the letters in the word "'''''MIDWAY'''''" fly in quickly from top and bottom one-by-one, forming the name. | '''Logo:''' On a black background, a shiny version of the Midway logo flips quickly towards the screen.
