Cool Things About the Game!!!!

on Monday, August, 18, 2003 12:48 AM
I have to admit...

When the idea of a new chapter in TRON was talked about for a game, I was both happy and a little worried..

I figured (this was a long time ago) that a new story and the game dev. process would mess up everything and destory what I have loved for all these years.... Mainly because I've seen some games and a lot of movies do the same....

But now, after reading parts of the new story on game sites and playing the demo, I really love it.

I really don't think anyone else could have done a better job than Monolith. Picking them to create the game was a very good move....

And I do believe that we have some friends, here at Tron-Sector, that deserves to be commended.....

To me.... This is the coolest thing since the first TRON.... Lets all pray that a movie is made....

x 11 = 77

Thoug I must admit that I am also glad they didnt use the old cliche that every program has a backup copy and revive the MCP and Sark. Let them stay derezzed abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

I agree to the fullest extent... Let the dead stay dead..

although I would love to see RAM again... but it would conflic the whole point of the story.... Once a program is de-rezzed, there isn't a copy..... That is what I define de-rezzed as being different to deleted.....

But I don't think that is what Steven was thinking back in the '80's..

I'd never expect to see Sark again, but I could see the MCP coming back in some form.

Not that he will . . . I have no idea if the MCP is back or not. But the MCP was no ordinary program, any longer. He had become extremely powerful, and the core of the MCP may have survived what happened at the end of the film, somehow.

It would be fun to see the MCP make a cameo appearance in the game, in some sorry state.

Oh go ahead and PM me. I've heard tales from the beginning that the MCP may be around in some state.


As to a program being derezzed, yes that equates to death BUT if there is a backup on a disc then said program could return.....

So.....is there a disc backup somewhere that Dillinger made of the MCP.....or even Sark?....

Go ahead, you can tell me

Sorry Ghost Rider, you'll just have to be surprised.

Just make sure you download and read all the e-mails when you play through the game.

There used to be a debate here, about when Sark was racing in a light cycle against the kid in Flynn's arcade at the beginning of the film. If Sark is in Encom's mainframe, dealing with the MCP et al, then how can he be in the arcade machine too? There's no network connection between the machine and Encom.

So . . . that brings up the debate, that there can be more than one copy of a program. More than one Sark, or any other program. Still, I don't expect Sark to ever come back, much as I might like him to. Same goes for Ram, I'd love to see him back, but I don't see how, realistically.

They all travel through electricity!

Well Dillinger's crimes all likely landed him in Federal Prison which has been known to be more of a country club then prison....

Who's to say he didnt have PC access and kept up with all the latest technological changes.

Who's to say that he didnt have a backup of Sark or the MCP? And that he didn't recode them over time to improve them and then turn them loose upon the web to wait, assimilate power and information and data then return when least expected?

As to RAM, he was more of a program useful for background support or for being the extra gun while the main warriors fought. I cant see him returning at all.

As a kid growing up in the 80's, I thought the same way because I really didn't know (like most people) what networking was and how it worked....

But it's still a cute idea.....

Yeah, that's an obvious hole, but I think people are just reading into too much. It just made for a cool sequence. Ok, ok...I'll play along.

When Sark defeats the opponent on the gird, he say's something to the effect of when are you going to stop sending me these accounting cream puffs. From this we can infer that he was competeing against one of the PROGRAMS the MCP abducted and not the 'user' in the arcade since there's nothing to suggest that the programs are directly controlled by users in that manner.

What does this mean? Well, the user playing the arcade game and Sark competing with the program are entirely separate events. One is taking place in an arcade, with the arcade player just playing against a normal game AI that has nothing to do with Sark or the 'digital world.' The other event is Sark competing against a conscript on the Encom Mainframe. So they're two events that are just shown in parallel that makes it look like one event.

At any rate the bigger hole is not that Sark didn't have access to the arcade machine, but rather if we do take both scene's as one evet, why is the user represented by a separate program and not just an outside controlled vehical in the digital world.

I always figured it this way:

It's in the script.

Goodnight everybody! Thank you and make sure you tip your waitress!


Come on, you scuzzy data, be in there.

Yeah, it makes sense about the two being parallels (sp?) whereas the user is playing a game while two programs are competiting... never thought about that.
