Background

Pixelogic Limited was an British video game company founded by Chris Butler. It was founded in 1995, and went defunct in 2008.

1st Logo (26-30 June 1998)

Visuals: On a black background, there's a blue rectangle followed by a green one, a red one, and 2 long yellow ones bordering it. Suddenly, the word "PIXELOGIC" in a Copperplate Bold font appears. Finally, the rectangles and words broke apart as the logo ends.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Three whooshes and a car petal sound. Once the braking starts, electrical sounds are heard.

Availability: Only seen on Crime Killer for the PlayStation and PC.

2nd Logo (19 November 1999)

Visuals: A rocket launcher appears in Mars, moving around. Then, an asteroid falls and then the rocket launcher shoots at it, breaking into a thousand pieces, with the word "PIXELOGIC" in Copperslate Bold font appearing once more. Finally, the rectangles from the previous logo fade in.

Technique: A mix of CGI and 2D CGI computer animation.

Audio: Space-like music, the rocket launcher shooting, and the asteroid falling.

Availability: Only seen on Jeff Wayne's The War of the Worlds for the PlayStation, which only released in Europe.

3rd Logo (5 October 2001-14 August 2002)

Visuals: The Pixelogic logo fades in, having now two border colored white and blue. The word "PIXELOGIC" appears with "LIMITED" under it. A laser forms the letter "P" inside the blue border, making the cut falling like a piece of paper.

Technique: 2D computer animation.

Audio: The laser, along with deep synth music.

Availability: Only seen on The Italian Job for the PlayStation and PC. The Pocket PC/mobile game Street Duel: Underground Racing, have not yet been confirmed to have the logo, but it is unlikely.
