Title: simpler game splash screens without stuttering CSS animations

This pull request removes the fancy css transitions that were stuttering while the games loaded.
Instead it just displays static images until the game is ready to go, then it cross fades the static image to the game's real splashscreen.

Although we lose the visually interesting animations what we gain with this is that there is never black screen, even for the first-time load of the games.
