The World of Tron Prepares to Take on Challengers Once Again
Since the early era of video games, "Tron" has been synonymous as both a landmark CGI film and the engaging arcade games
Description
In Discs of Tron, players face off in a three-dimensional arena against the film’s villain, Sark, as they throw discs to try to knock him off of a platform or “derezz” him with a disc while he counters. The game, which includes both classic and enhanced modes, gets increasingly more difficult as players progress. A player’s advancement through the game includes multiple platforms of different altitudes, a barricade between the two combatants and chasers, which are secondary weapons from Sark. The player’s deflector can provide necessary temporary protection from Sark’s onslaught of discs.
Features
- Retro Perfection – Discs of Tron gives gamers an arcade-perfect re-creation of the arcade classic
- High Definition Graphics and Sound Upgrades – Refined graphics and sounds take advantage of Xbox 360™ capabilities while the classic version is available for arcade purists
