Disney Interactive has confirmed that it will be bringing enhanced versions of the arcade "classics" Tron and its sequel, Discs of Tron, to Xbox Live Arcade this summer.

The two titles are being released to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the popular 80s Disney picture, as well as to make sci-fi nerds open their tight wallets. In addition to updated graphics and sound, both games will support online multiplayer.

With any luck, the re-release of these Tron games will open up a world of seizures and brain aneurysms to a new generation of gamers.

With any luck, no one will buy either of these. Discs of Tron is bad enough...but the other one? Ranks up there amongst the top 5 worst games I've ever played. Wait till you try it on a controller....you'll see....

Tron Deadly Discs was one of my favorite Intellivision games.

So...Disney releases old games based on a license that's already dead...anyone want to tell me why they can't release Ducktales, Chip 'n' Dale, Darkwing Duck, and on Virtual Console/Xbox Live Arcade?

Man, I love those games. Chip 'n' Dale set the bar pretty high.Enjoyed Tron, too. The lightcyle part was great. I can still hear the sound...

Because Disney is 50x greedier than Capcom could ever hope to be.

What's that? That's the sound of my nips getting hard over this game.

Awesome.

Discs of Tron... I used to go to Six Flags just to play this game in the upright cabinet. It seems ideally suited to Wiimote control.

Does anyone else think an updated or original version of SEGA's/Delphine Software's game FLASHBACK would be an amazing addition to XBLA??
