Technique: 2D animation.

2nd Logo (1995-2002)

Standard logo
Van Slug X-Mission
Lars the Wanderer
Astrocounter of Crescents
Imjin-rok
Alternate version
GungGadin

Visuals: Over a white background, the blue Samsung logo is shown with "삼성전자" or "ELECTRONICS" in bold.

Variants:

On early DOS games, a pixelated Samsung logo is shown with the Hangul text. It is seen without the Korean text in Van Slug X-Mission.
On Lars the Wanderer, the logo is superimposed on a marble background.
On Astrocounter of Crescents, the white logo is shown over a black background and "DISTRIBUTED BY" is shown above.
On Imjin-rok and GungGadin, the blue text "또 하나의 가족" is shown above the logo.

Technique: A still, sprite-based graphic.

Audio: Mostly none.

Audio Variants:

On Van Slug X-Mission, a mellow MIDI theme is heard.
On Imjin-rok, a harp glissando is heard.
On GungGadin, a bell arpeggio is heard.

Availability: Seen on computer games published or developed by the company like the ones mentioned above. Also appears on the first two Korean Crayon Shin-chan games.

3rd Logo (1995, 1998)

Visuals: Over a black background, multiple blue fragments appear from the directions and join together to form the Samsung logo (a slanted oval with the "S/\MSUNG" trademark text) with "삼성전자" next to it.

Variant: On Laburynthos, the logo emerges from blue dust and the Korean text is changed to "ELECTRONICS".

Technique: CGI.

Audio: None.

4th Logo (1996-1997)

Visuals: Over a starfield is the Samsung oval logo zooming out as the letters of "ELECTRONICS" shoot from the right side below, with a blue comet trail. The elements then place into the sides as the background changes into plain white, with the logo and text turning into plain blue.

Technique: Computer animation.

Audio: A dramatic synth fanfare.

Availability: Seen on the PC games My Love: Chaos Daejak-jeon and Kakkong.

5th Logo (Late 1990s)

Visuals: Unknown.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: A repeating electric piano theme with strings, followed by a held note.

Availability: Probably from a Korean distributed game, or a demo disc.

6th Logo (June 1999-2002)
