Editions by CuriousGeorge60
Video captures courtesy of Paperking99
Background: Pitbull Syndicate Ltd. was founded in 1996 in Newcastle, UK. In 2005, it was purchased by Midway and renamed to "Midway Studios Newcastle". After the parent company went bankrupt in 2009, the studio in Newcastle was dismissed. Several employees created Pitbull Studio, saving the name.
1st Logo
(1997-2000)
Logo: We see a circle divided into black and white sections, with the word, "pitbull" attached to the right side. "SYNDICATE" is seen underneath. A head of pitbull takes place inside the circle. The logo zooms in and flickers twice.
Music/Sounds: Dog's growling and barking sounds in the moments when the logo flickers. On Test Drive 4 (The first game to have this logo) the logo is silent.
Availability: Appeared on Demolition Racer, Blast Radius, Big Air and most commonly, on Test Drive 4, 5 and 6. Even though Pitbull Syndicate developed it, this logo doesn't appear on Test Drive Off-Road 2/Test Drive 4X4,it just has the Accolade logo and nothing else.
