'''Logo:''' On a shady denim blue-textured background with some light near the upper-left, we see a faded square in the center with a shadow drop behind it. A DVD flies around with a dust trailing effect, and parts of the Simitar logo (very much like what you see in the 3rd logo, but slightly re-textured) fly into place in the center. The word "Simitar", now in Futura font, flies around and settles underneath it, and the silver DVD logo (with a CGI DVD and a simple font for "DVD") flies into place under that. The disc seen earlier is part of this. Then the logo starts to "ripple" away before it fades out. | '''Logo:''' On a shady denim blue-textured background with some light near the upper-left, we see a faded square in the center with a shadow drop behind it.
