This page is dedicated to THX Certified video game releases, and whatever trailer they may have. What constituted a THX Certified Game was that the game was designed and created solely in a THX Certified Studio, not that the video or audio was completely certified by THX, like a film was. THX Certified Games debuted between 2003 and 2010 and are generally not as well remembered as DVDs or VHS ...
Technique: CGI. Audio: The -1.5 Deep Note as heard on the DVD and Tex versions. The Matrix variant uses the normal Deep Note, as featured in the Science trailer. None, or the game's opening theme for the still variant. Availability: Seen in THX-certified games. The original variant was spotted on Shadow Ops: Red Mercury, and Madden 06, but ...
THX Certification - The gold standard for audio and visual fidelity. THX. THX Certification. The THX Certified mark ensures the viewing and listening experience has passed critical industry standards. THX engineers perform hundreds of tests to ensure sound and picture reproduction in the industry’s top entertainment equipment is fully preserved.
- The Deep Note. Before we get too deep into the different logos – or 'trailers' as the community refers to them – we can’t start without talking about the Deep Note.
- 1983: Wings. “For the past 35 years, motion picture loudspeaker systems have not changed…” read the first title card, as the initial strains of the Deep Note began to swell.
- Late 1983: Broadway. Debuting later that same year, the 'Broadway' version of the THX trailer received much more play, and is probably more recognisable to the casual viewer.
- 1988: Cimarron. The Cimarron version was named after an award-winning Western from 1932. It broke with tradition by abandoning the Deep Note – a move that would not prove to be popular – and instead begins with the sound of an orchestra tuning up.
- Introduction
- Trailer
Introduced to games in 2003, THX initially did a fair amount of work on EA titles. The original long version of this trailer was only seen on four games. SSX 3, Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, Lord of the Rings: The Third Age, and Shadow Ops: Red Mercury. Most certified games used a shortened version of the trailer, an image of the THX logo, or a different trailer entirely.
•MLB 08: The Show, MLB 09: The Show and NBA 09 (PS3) all use the Cavalcade trailer.
•Lair (PS3) uses a custom version of the Tex 2 trailer.
•Jak X: Combat Racing, MLB 06: The Show, NBA 07 (PS3), and MAG all use the Science trailer.
Long Variant
The -1.5 (C#) Deep Note plays as the text "Experience THX®" fades in. The text then fades out and the THX logo with "Certified Game" below it fades in. A lens flare then goes across the bottom of the THX logo and the logo fades out as the lens flare reaches the right side of the logo.
Short Variant
The -1.5 (C#) Deep Note plays as the THX logo fades in, the lens flare already going across the logo, faster than in the long version. On some releases, the text "Experience THX®" appears below the logo.
Scarface: The World is Yours
A chainsaw roars to life as the Science THX logo appears. A lens flare goes across the logo quickly as the Deep Note plays out quickly.
