well, for those of you old enough to remember when computers were 900lbs and had less memory than your calculator, and remember how toolish Disney movies were, well hang on to your to handrails, that's right kiddies, back from the past and ready to kick your ass... TRON has returned. Oh yes. This trailer gave me wood.

forget 1982, tights, rotoscoping and Journey... it's 2010 and this shit is badass.

I dunno... shouldn't the TRON bikes only be able to drive in a straight line?

I was shocked that they were not restricted to two dimensions.

I lost a few quarters to that game back in the day.

There was a sequel tron game where you threw discs at an opponent and jumped from platform to platform, it was fun!

Disc Tron! I only played it a handful of times, but it was the coolest.

thank you very much for that clip.
it takes me back to an era before consoles... back when if you wanted to beat Afterburner, you were rocking through a ten spot in quarters.
There is still an arcade in the mall in Plattsburgh, but it's only a token presence... it's nothing like the glory days of arcades.

the 80's was a good time to be a game geek.
