TRON: Evolution to "dispel movie based game stigma"

GamerZines writes:

Most movie based game tie-ins create a fair amount of apathy in the gaming community, but Propaganda Games' Darren Hedges has revealed that the primary focus during the development of TRON: Evolution was to buck that trend.

I really hope so, I love Tron and will be buying the game just for the extra story line and gap filler between the movies. Move implementation sounds interesting but I'm struggling to picture exactly how it would work, anybody have any video links or anything?

Quagmire5696d ago

I cant believe Disney decided to cancel Pirates of the Caribbean: Armada of the Damned instead of this. As awesome as Tron: Legacy looks, and as much as I respect the developers, Armada of the Damned wouldve been a much better game, considering it not directly tied into a film, and that its the only current-gen Pirate themed RPG game.

Now we probably have to wait another 5-10 years for a good Pirate based game...

guess you missed this 'gem'...

Why does it have to be one or the other? I don't know the reason that the new Pirates game got cancelled but I'm sure it had nothing to do with Tron: Evolution.

archemides5185695d ago (Edited 5695d ago )

armada of the damned ran at like 10 fps, how they supposed to fix that

jony_dols5696d ago

Like we've never heard that before........(thinks back to Avatar,King Kong,Batman Begins......)

Reibooi5695d ago

Yeah many have said it and not one was able to do it. It's kinda something they have to say really. They are not gonna say something like "Well it is a movie tie in game and so it was rushed and will be a piece of crap"

They are gonna try to praise it.

Personally I don't think the game looks all that great. The game looks pretty enough and captures the look of the new movie well enough but game play wise it just looks bland and even a bit wonky and buggy(from the video's I have seen at least) Granted it's still not done but still I would expect it to look better if they really claim it was gonna beat the bad movie game stigma.

coolbeans5695d ago

It's bound to happen sooner or later. One glorious day a direct movie-based game and/or a videogame-based movie will be great.

archemides5185695d ago

don't forget to add x-men origins wolverine, they put out a whole developer doc about it

siliticx5695d ago

Considering Tron 2 was just plain Win, i expect this to follow suit!

Dr_Handsome5695d ago

Sigh, that's what they said about Avatar the game.

SpideyNut5695d ago

...it's hard for a movie-based game to be good, when the movie itself is an overblown sfx-fest, with a cut/paste storyline and cut/paste characters.

IaMs125695d ago

Well lets sure hope so. If not maybe a step in the right direction. If any game movie coming out in the future i want Bioshock and Gears to be done right

Tron: Evolution DRM revokes buyers' licenses, pirates unaffected

People who bought Tron: Evolution on Steam have been locked out of their purchases unless highly specific conditions were met. This mess is courtesy of SecuROM and expired licenses but pirates were unaffected almost entirely.

isarai2362d ago

An example of what happens in an All Digital Future.

Fist4achin2362d ago

Kind of sucks when you dont truly own it!

XxINFERNUSxX2362d ago

Ummm just torrent the game it's still up on all the sites. Why get all upset LOL. I will never be locked out, torrent FTW it's all mine.

rdgneoz32362d ago

"As a result of legitimate buyers not being able to access what they paid for, some suggested usage of certain sites associated with flags that feature skull and crossbones."

Love what the site is suggesting, considering the pos DRM screwing over paying customers.

Few businesses treat every customer like a potential criminal.

First off: How the hell did this get approved? It has PC, Sony and Nintendo tags? Am I missing something or is this just another crappy attempt at gaining traffic?

Secondly: http://www.metacritic.com/g...
What goods are being delivered? God damn. If ya gonna shill at least make it believable.

christocolus3597d ago (Edited 3597d ago )

"What goods are being delivered?"

Rainbow Six Vegas 2
Tron Evolution
Tumblestone
The Banner Saga 2

LostDjinn3597d ago

So a game that's the best part of a decade old, a last gen turd, a pay-to-play Indie that has modes locked behind dlc and an Indie? That's your argument?
Nice Work Dan. Thanks for proving my point.

christocolus3597d ago (Edited 3597d ago )

It's called Games with Gold and they are free games. You don't have to like all the games being offered but we just got Sunset Overdrive, Wolf Among us, Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishment, Xcom , The Crew, Goat Simulator, Super Meat Boy etc in the previous months. Limbo and Tekken Tag Tournament 2 were also given away as a bonus last month..and I'm sure there are many xbox fans out there willing to try out Tron.

LostDjinn3597d ago

Bwahaha. Well that list is just outstanding (you tried cherry picking and that's the best you could come up with?) ...and free you say?

Dan I know you run an online PR "company" (it's so cute you call it a company) that's subcontracted by MS by my God! If that's the best you've got return their money.
Pfft. Free.
