THX Games Smoke Break

EA GAMES™ is an ELECTRONIC ARTS™ brand Challenge Everything THX GAMES We'll Be Right Back

A video shows a monitor booting through the nostalgic EA Games startup screen before the logo morphs into a parody “THX GAMES” screen. The camera then reveals a smoking, overheating desktop computer, followed by the caption “We'll Be Right Back,” turning a dramatic game intro into a joke about the PC catching fire. The startup music and television-like presentation make the sudden malfunction feel like a fake commercial interruption.
