I'm back with a post that I felt obligated doing. Did you like the last post about 2XKO in 2026? What was so special about that one is because of a long-awaited roadmap. What's the next thing I want to post? Well, I am working on a post that talks about a turn-based JRPG and its nuances, which is probably what I'll post next.
But what I want to mention now, though, is a bit of a shoutout about a YouTube channel called Broken Saw. This is a logo-based channel and I know you loved them. They are known for covering logos from TV shows, video games, movies, bumpers and movie and game trailers. The logos I'm into are the ones from video games. There are a lot of videos that cover video games, including the one form I like the most; logos that are deep. And by deep, I mean logos that don't take place in game or refer to what game and can also refer to silent logos.
Why I'm telling you about this is because I was given and granted permission to drop submissions in a document that contains links/requests for logos after expressing my interest in submitting requests for logos from video games. The section has requests, with new ones being at the bottom. If you scroll through them, you'll see my requests that has the signature of my screen name "KnockDownJoe." If you see my signature, they are my logo requests. However, there is a limit of 10 submissions, so I have to wait a little while because they need to focus on what is front of them. It's called patience, you know.
I'll be using MobyGames for citation of older games. It is a video game database that collects data from older and current titles. This is the data I can find when it comes to older titles. However, I am also using IGDB for modern games that are released on modern generations and games that aren't in MobyGames. The separate document currently has a lot of requests that I have planned to submit, so here's the link to the document below.
Broken Saw has fulfilled my request of two videos that I'm going to show you here.
From Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi:
From WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2008 (PS3 version):
But this is just the beginning. There are a lot of them I want to submit on the future document that updates over time and more will come to fruition, so I decided to list five games with the best logo flows I have planned to submit to Broken Saw.
5. Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe:
I have to make this the first thing to talk about because on the post about video game violence, I talked about this game and its nuances that led to getting a T rating. This game has the best logo flow of Midway, WB Interactive Elements, DC Comics, Unreal Technology. Beast, Turtle, DivX and GameSpy. However, it would be the final Mortal Kombat game of the franchise under the Midway umbrella before their liquidation allowed the franchise to be published under the Warner Bros. umbrella in development partnership with NetherRealm Studios with the inception of their first game aptly called Mortal Kombat.
4. Super Dragon Ball Z:
For those of you who don't know what Super Dragon Ball Z is, it's a cel-shaded fighting game that features a handful of Dragon Ball Z characters and unique movesets for each character. Now, I remember playing this game back in the day when the games were in the golden age of Atari. Plus, this is among one of the Dragon Ball games to have the best logo flow of Atari, Funimation, Okra Tron 5000, Bandai Namco, Craft & Meister, Sofdec and ADX. If this game comes to PlayStation Plus, it'll make the FGC who played this game back in the day happy.
3. Ultra Street Fighter IV:
I'll be the first to say that I played any of the Street Fighter IV games, but never played the Ultra release. But it does have the best logo flow, but different by version. How it goes is the order of Capcom, Dolby Digital, Criware and Autodesk Gameware Scaleform. The console version has the Other Ocean logo while the PC version has the NVIDIA logo. Both versions have the best logo flows overall.
2. 007: Tomorrow Never Dies:
This is a game that I remember playing back in the day when I was a kid. A Nintendo 64 version was planned, but it was scrapped due to memory limits, which is why the logos in the N64 version of third-party games lacked animation, rendering it exclusive to the PS1. There's the logo flow of Killer Game, Black Ops Enterainment, MGM Interactive and Tommy Tallarico Studios. This has the best logo flow. We never had a James Bond game on PlayStation Plus yet, but I think we can see it come to light one day in preparation of the upcoming new game to welcome James Bond back into the gaming realm after his 14-year hiatus since Legends came out.
1. Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3:
Currently, logos for Budokai 1 and 2 are on there, but not Budokai 3 yet because I'm submitting this to fill in the database with the best logo of Atari, Funimation Productions, Ltd., Bandai, Dimps, Sofdec and ADX. The difference is the Bandai logo not seen on the previous two entries.
These are the five games with the best logo flows that I have planned to submit. If you're willing to submit logo requests to Broken Saw, the channel's about section has the steps to follow. Here's the link to Broken Saw's channel.
