leXX Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 ... looks awesome. Really looking forward to it. Been a fan of the original ever since it came out, and it looks like they are doing a great job of re-inventing it. I'm re-playing Tron 2.0 in anticipation. Daft Punk doing the soundtrack too. Can't wait! New Trailer There is cool game on the official site called Arcade Aid, where you have to figure out the names of 56 games. It's really fun and challenging. I managed to work out 30 on my own, and Hermie and Niner helped me with the other 26 this morning. At the end of it you fill in some Encom I.D. thing, and they will send you something in the post (make sure you login if you want to save your progress). Have fun! If you get really stuck on any, just ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totenkopf Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Gave up after about 6 correct guesses. Not gonna ask for 50 clues. Might try and give it another go later.... The Tron preview looks visually interesting enough. Saw it a few days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I have never seen or know about anything Tron before, but I will definitely see this. Olivia Wilde <3 <3 <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Another Oscar-worthy performance by Jeff Bridges in this one perhaps? The Dude abides, after all... But Tron was one of my fave films when I was a kid. I'm looking forward to it! I have the Expanded DVD set... and it will be one of the first to get upgraded when I finally jump to Blu-Ray. I need to resurrect my gaming PC (or get an updated one...) to play through Tron 2.0 again myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 I need to resurrect my gaming PC (or get an updated one...) to play through Tron 2.0 again myself. It still looks cool as hell, even by todays standards, and the gameplay is just as awesome as I remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Yeah... I remember it being awesome. Problem is: the PC I'm using at home at the moment basically has less power than the average Netbook. My previous PC, with the graphics and audio accelerators croaked a while back, and i haven't had much incentive to get in there and try to revive it. I would like to get a modern, more powerful tower system... but with car repairs and such, money is a bit too tight at the moment to go out and get a gamer-spec system. I have a lot of extra work coming up over the next couple of weeks/ months however... Maybe by summer I'll be able to upgrade my digital world. Until then, I guess I'll try to see what killed off the old system just to have something to load old games on for nostalgia's sake... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted March 24, 2010 Author Share Posted March 24, 2010 So I got my package today and this is what you get: When you scan it, it gives a web address where you login and it has loads of cryptic Tron stuff on it. Pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txa1265 Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 It still looks cool as hell, even by todays standards, and the gameplay is just as awesome as I remember it. Does anyone know if there was ever a Digital Download release? Prefer gaming on my Alienware m11x ... no DVD drive ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted March 30, 2010 Author Share Posted March 30, 2010 I don't think it is available for digital download. It's not on Steam or Direct2Drive anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txa1265 Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I don't think it is available for digital download. It's not on Steam or Direct2Drive anyway. Yep ... I checked all of my Mac and PC DD sites and none of them have it ... so I had to grab my CD's and reinstall it, and use a CD image ... The GOOD news? It runs *great* on the netbook - went to medium settings and it is smooth as silk! w00t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I'm really excited about Legacy. I never tried Tron 2.0 but maybe I should track it down... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 That could be because my PC is soooo oooold. Will have to check the specs. In the middle upgrading, so once I have that I'll give it a try. But you retrospectives make me want to play Jedi Knight again first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txa1265 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 But you retrospectives make me want to play Jedi Knight again first. The funny thing is that I am a sucker for replaying those games myself ... when I got the Alienware m11x one of the first things I did was re-install the whole Jedi Knight series from Steam ...

jrrtoken Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 For those who are still playing Tron 2.0, the long-awaited Killer App Mod was released yesterday. In a nutshell, it's essentially a massive patch/restoration/graphics enhancement mod, providing widescreen support, windowed mode, new multiplayer options, etc. It's the mod to end all mods, and should be considered a prerequisite for anyone playing Tron 2.0, veteran or novice. Be sure that you also have the Unofficial Patch installed first, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leXX Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 So cool (thanks to Michael). Oh and there is a new trailer out in case you missed it... (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
