Tron (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Tron is a 1982 Walt Disney Productions science fiction film starring Jeff Bridges as Kevin Flynn (and his counterpart inside the electronic world, Clu), Bruce Boxleitner as Alan Bradley (and Tron), Cindy Morgan as Lora Baines (and Yori) and Dan Shor as Ram. The character Tron plays a martyr-type, who "battles for the Users." When a User himself (Flynn) is dropped in to the environment, and found to be a User, he assumes the role of a Messiah-type of character, who can perform what seems like miracles to other programs.

GameSpy.com - Article TRON 2.0 was one of those obvious games that probably should have come out a long time ago. TRON fans will eat up the story, the graphics are gorgeous, the gameplay is solid, and it's pretty funny to boot.

Rebooting Tron 1.0 by Anthony Leong from MediaCircus.net For a generation of moviegoers, who were only beginning to explore the opportunities of consumer-focused computing technology, "Tron" became one of the more memorable genre films of 1982, alongside "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan", "The Thing", and the other 'cyberpunk' film of the year, "Blade Runner". Scheduled to be included on the DVD re-release (the prior "Tron" DVD was released in 1998) are four hours of commentary by Lisberger, an extensive documentary on the making of the film, and a love scene that was cut out from the theatrical release. Set once again in the "Tron" universe, this new game is being planned as a first-person perspective actioner (similar to "Half-Life") with the capability of supporting on-line gameplay. www.mediacircus.net /tron.html   (1613 words)

JVGS Atari 2600 Game Ratings Adventures of Tron is a very fun game with a good challenge level; it doesn't seem too easy or too hard. This is an adventure game based on the classic movie of the same name. This game is a bit short for an adventure game and it has little replay value, but it is fairly entertaining while it lasts. jvgs.tripod.com /2600.htm   (4117 words)

Apple - Games - Tron 2.0 “The Tron world is stylistic, based on sensibilities inherent in the electronic cliché,” notes designer Syd Mead, who worked on both the original Tron film and the new Tron 2.0 game, out on the Mac from MacPlay. “Tron lay dormant for 20 years after the release of the movie,” explains Cliff Kamida, executive producer of the game for Buena Vista Interactive, “so we felt pretty free to do what we wanted. Tron 2.0 retains the look and feel of the film’s environment, courtesy of the “glow effect” developed by graphic card maker Nvidia, but also introduces many of the technological advances of the past 20 years. www.apple.com /games/articles/2004/04/tron2   (1021 words)

The Video Game Critic's Atari 2600 Reviews A-A Adventure's amazingly rich gameplay transcends its primitive sound and graphics, creating an experience brimming with strategy, action, and suspense. Adventures of Tron is challenging enough, but it doesn't rate highly in terms of fun. Your remaining lives are not indicated on the screen, and of the two difficulty levels, level "B" is too slow and "A" is ridiculously hard. www.videogamecritic.net /2600aa.htm   (3377 words)

IGN Boards - Discs of tron? Tron's Deadly Discs (on the 2600, never played the intellivision version) is just a one-man-army kind of game with the twist being that you can use the same doors that the enemies come in from. The Adventures of Tron is eerily similar to Tron meets Donkey Kong. The arcade game, if i recall correctly, was more of a duel against Sark where you had to aim the disc that was bouncing around on the walls ala crosshair and trying not to get hit in the process. boards.ign.com /Message.aspx?topic=54851374   (379 words)

GameMethod.com: TRON 2.0: Killer App (Xbox) Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) While TRON 2.0: Killer App remains a compelling experience, it unfortunately takes on a few faults in the transition from PC to Xbox; moreover, the added online features aren’t enough to counteract these deficiencies, setting the game inferior to its PC counterpart. One of the first motion pictures to utilize CGI, TRON followed the adventures of programmer Kevin Flynn as he battled against the Master Control Program (MCP) inside a computer system, in the hope of saving his company, Encom. TRON 2.0: Killer App picks up twenty years later as Flynn’s associate and personal friend, Alan Bradley, completes work on the algorithms necessary to digitize a person into a computer. www.gamemethod.com /Console/1319/tron-20-killer-app-xbox-review   (906 words)

Amazon.com: Tron: DVD: Steven Lisberger,Jeff Bridges,Bruce Boxleitner,David Warner,Cindy Morgan,Barnard Hughes,Dan ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01) So, it's no suprise that Tron is a cult favorite among this generation of programmers and computer users because it recaptures the magic of those early days. Tron in many ways was supposed to be a big hit. What attracts people to Tron is most likely the animation which is one of the first if not the first heavily-CGI extensive film and while it doesn't have the pristine shine of recent films, it's certainly quite a visual feast, especially if you're watching it for the first time. www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1558908358?v=glance   (2292 words)

AGH Atari 2600 Review -- The Adventures of Tron Adventures of Tron offers nothing new, and the game quickly becomes an exercise in frustration. The relentless attack from the Tanks will quickly overwhelm all but the most dexterous game player. Considering that Tron was one of the hottest licenses in the early 1980s, one can't help but feel that Mattel dropped the ball by offering a run-of-the-mill climbing and jumping game. www.atarihq.com /reviews/2600/adventures_of_tron.html   (191 words)

Review: TRON 2.0: KIller App for Game Boy Advance on Gamepro.com. Unlike the Xbox version, TRON 2.0 for the GBA is not a port of last year's PC hit. Rather, it is something of a sequel, chronicling the adventures of Tron and Mercury as the two warriors fend off yet another attack on the ENCOM system. Split into two concurrent adventures, the game lets players adventure through the system as Tron and then experience things from the other side as Mercury (or vice versa). www.gamepro.com /nintendo/gameboy_advance/games/reviews/38868.shtml   (343 words)

Phosphor Dot Fossils | Atari 2600 TRON Games In TRON Deadly Discs, you are Tron, a lone video game warrior pitted against three other enemies with much greater armament. By throwing your disc at certain portions of the arena wall and changing them to the same color as your on-screen character, you can make tunnels for yourself - not unlike the side tunnels in Pac-Man - handy for escape or ambush. Though formatted like one of the numerous platform adventure games that would one day become associated with Mario, Adventures of Tron, while quite challenging, is frustrating since there seems to be no actual goal to reach. www.thelogbook.com /phosphor/atari26/q0-00/tron.html   (264 words)

IGN: First Screens of Capcom's New Legends The Japanese working title "Tron Ni Kobun," translating roughly to "Tron and the Servebots," looks to be a bizarre side-story to Mega Man Legends (Rockman Dash in Japan), and has no release date as of yet, according to Capcom's Japanese website. Instead, apparently Tron Bonne, the 14-year-old mechanical wiz-kid from Mega Man Legends, has taken on a larger role in this strange spin-off from the Mega Man Legends title. The game's title and these shots indicate that the game is entirely focused on Tron and her adventures, making Tron Ni Kobun a kind of side-story of the Legend series, although clearly using the same engine, mechanics and backgrounds. psx.ign.com /articles/066/066089p1.html   (299 words)

Deeko Top Ten List #3 - Top Ten Controllers It came bundled with the MNetwork games “Adventures of Tron”, a game which had nothing to do with the movie and was really quite crappy, and “Tron: Deadly Discs”, which was actually a really fun title. The controller was molded using translucent ice blue plastic and closely resembled the controller seen on Tron arcade machines. Say what you will, the Tron controller is definitely a piece of controller history and belongs on the list. www.deeko.com /readfeature.asp?id=4&p=2   (254 words)
