The logo of Fargus Multimedia (Фаргус Мультимедия) as seen on their game covers uses ITC Kabel Ultra with stretched proportions.

From Wikipedia (translated from the Russian):

Fargus Multimedia was a localizer and publisher of illegal copies and derivatives of computer games, distributing its products in Russia and the CIS countries in 1996–2005, one of the largest pirate groups in Russia. Translations were carried out mainly by employees who were fond of computer games, working both on a paid and unpaid basis. It was liquidated as a legal entity in 2011. It became famous among the masses for the largest “pirated” circulation of licensed digital material ever released on compact discs. The company’s mottos: “Only complete and high-quality translation”, “Completely in Russian”.
