Play Tron Online and Offline
Sometimes it is not just play. You need to think about strategy, timing and other things in order to win. Like all games I blog about, here is another one that is bound to get you thinking. Based on the light cycle sequences from the film Tron, the aim of the game is to be the last player riding. So avoid running into walls, your own tail and that of your opponents. You can play the online (flash) version here or download the offline versions mentioned below.Although the online version of the game is easy to finish, it is good fun for just 10 minutes. What if you would like to get more of that drawing lines to beat the enemy action? Well, that is where the offline versions step in.
Offline versions: On top of providing you with more levels to complete, the graphics are a million times better! Download Armagetron Advanced (screenshot on the top left) or GLTron for free. Both games are open source and available on multiple platforms (PC, Mac, Linux) but only Armagetron Advanced has Internet play (MMOG) as well.
For those who haven't seen the film yet, watch it! Here is an excerpt from the Wikipedia page:
"Being one of the first films from a major studio to use computer graphics extensively, Tron has a distinctive visual style. Although the film was initially unsuccessful, it has remained a cult favorite mainly due to its innovative use of computer graphics and its computer and video-game plot line. Tron's light-cycle race is one of the movie's best-remembered action sequences."

Hi Ilker - I'm not much of a gamer.
Some PS2 games I play with my son every blue moon annoy me so much that I just get so frustrated!
I guess that's why people have GameBoy rage.
Anyway, I know you love comments so I just thought I'd say:
Happy Monday!

Man I suck at the Tr0n game. The movie was great 80's cheese. Damn Master Control Program!
Cool, Tron that one takes me back a few years :) Was good for a few minutes of mindless fun.
Well, so much for the blog..
Armagetron Advanced is amazing!! I've been playing it for hours
Wow this game rocks....
Highly addictive!
Lame... there's no way a human can beat a bot with an algorithm like that. The bot turns right when I make a turn! Another player wouldn't have those kinds of reflexes. Impossible! Stick with Armagetron.
@Anonymous: Nothing is impossible. That bot is beatable. Use your head!

Heh, I beat it in about an 40min :)
Good Challenge!
Anonymous: Quite the opposite. Managed to find little tricks/patterns that confused the A.I. Found 1 pattern than beat lvl 1 through 5... another for 6.... and oddly a very easy one for the final Omega level. ;)
Tip- levels 3-5 are cake.
1. Head directly for your opponent head on until your about an inch away and turn down
2.turn left just after your opponent turns left, you should be under him running parallel.
3.Your opponint will then turn up and begin a box pattern, this gives you time to attach your path to his begining path above you, boxing him in
4.Stay alive for 5-10 seconds while you watch him die in the box you made.
awesome game. Finished the first six levels in 15 mins. but couldn't go the omega level :(
beat level six, took a while but i finally did it. tron is great
Woohoo! I beat the omega level! By the way, there IS a trick that beats the computer every time. I noticed that if the computer meets your line, it starts following it until the space becomes too narrow.

I'm in a love-hate relationship with digital memory because of how prices are always,and I mean always dropping. I absolutely hate buying SD Cards for my R4 / R4i at (what seems to be) a bargain price only to see it become ten percent cheaper a couple of months later.
