Did Tron violate your family or something? You've been nothing but negative on the tron videos.

@Driadon: True that, good to know. I'm definitely interested as long the polishing keeps getting better! But I agree tho, the lightcycle looked cool at least. I jus wasn't impressed with the character control. :P

@CitizenJP: Played it at PAX, the more recent build had some better animation, but some of the player cues in the levels where strangely placed. The Lightcycle bit was awesome, though.

Everyone keep asking for something new, but name one game that REALLY does much new anymore. The traversal is Prince of Persia, the combat is Spider-man, the light cycle is a generic driving portion. The art style is really one of the only unique things in most new games these days. All in all, I think this game looks much better than I was expecting it to. Not a day one buy for me, but I'm interested in seeing more.

Seems very snappy, not very smooth transitions in the character's movements. Especially on the wall running stuff. Looked stiff.

I am now intrigued. Really hope they get the feel of the PoP-esque sections right though. I want to actually press buttons when I wallrun goddammit.

Just looks like a futuristic Prince of Persia where people don't know how to run properly.

One part racing, one part RPG, one part Mirror's Edge, and one part brawler.

Very Tronny.  Kinda see some of the old movie in there.  And the Lightcycles look like a cross of Split/Second, Blur, and Road Rash.  And anything that even resembles Road Rash is a winner to me.

The actual gameplay looks pretty normal but the visual design is beautiful, when he hit those two switches and the entire room started bugging out.... man.

This actually looks pretty okay. Graphics look great. Music is, of course, rad. Traversal is intriguing and the combat looks passable.

not only games, systems too.
achievements and trophies are basically just XP .
and most gaming websites have a similar system.
hell soon you'll get achievements for buying groceries.

"Oh dear, I did just hear someone say "By order of CLU" didn't I?  Crap, I think I'm beginning to figure out the plot of the game and maybe the movie and I'm starting to get worried. "

Wasn't CLU the program that Flynn sent in after his data with a tank and the little binary memory bit?  CLU was captured and subjected to deresolution.  So maybe after Flynn destroyed the MCP, CLU was restored and all the other programs sort of assumed that CLU was in fact their savior, not Flynn.  Perhaps now CLU is holding a grudge against his creator and wishes to rebel against the Users? 
 
I'm sorry, but this is really intriguing me.  Just tell me that the memory bit will return too.

I like the look of this, very much so.
 
A note, though. Why do they make trailers of games with the wrong hardware? The past few years, teaser vids of FPS'es have been done on consoles, making the gameplay look absolutely retarded. Videos of fps'es played with a mouse has a way better look to them (unless the guy is some sort of crazy twitch player). And now this, the light cycles are controlled with keyboard, making them flick repeatedly to the side while turning, NES style.

God I swear some of you people are completely spoiled. None of this looks 'horrible' there's some parts that look average, but nothing looks 'bad'.

Climbing looked shitty. Light Cycles look ok...at best. The combat looks fast-paced, which is a good thing.

Yea, not very TRONy.  Like they stripped out all the unique things that made TRON, TRON.  Another halfway decent looking game that should have been called something else.

Oh, I was surprised by this, I love "climbing around on stuff" games. The controls looked a bit stiff though and the combat didn't look all that. 
 
It still sparked a mild interest.
