Background

989 Studios was an American development branch of Sony Computer Entertainment focused on both PlayStation titles and PC games, founded in August 1995 as "Sony Interactive Studios America", which itself was formed by the merger of Sony Electronic Publishing with the development branch of Sony Computer Entertainment. In 1998, it was relaunched as "989 Studios". In 2000, it was dissolved into Sony Computer Entertainment of America; however, the 989 Sports label continued to be used until 2005.

FX/SFX: The logo forming together and the "TM" symbol moving fast from the right to finish the logo.

Music/Sounds: A dark backbeat is heard with a male announcer saying "989 Studios", ending in a loud bang. On some games, if you listen very closely, you can hear the last note from the PlayStation boot screen's music as well.
