Tron 2.0/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Celebrity Voice Actor:
    • Rebecca Romijn-Stamos as Mercury.
    • Bruce Boxleitner reprises his role as Alan.
  • Recycled Script: For that matter, don't make a drinking game out of how many plot points of this game got recycled for Legacy. (See Alternate Continuity in the main section)
  • Technology Marches On. The in-play graphics of the game TRON 2.0 were better than the mainframe-rendered graphics of the original movie.
    • In game example: the Recognizers have become outdated and have been retro-fitted into transport tugs.
    • The old program I-No in the ENCOM mainframe brags about the machine's specs that modern handheld console would be embarrassed to have.

I-No: EN12-82, top of the line mainframe. Capable of 16 bit processing, full monochromatic display support, and a local storage of 128MB! I challenge you to find a more robust system!

    • You'd be surprised at the antiquated equipment still in use in many places. As recently as a decade ago, at least one Texas university was running its entire student information system on an IBM 3270 mainframe with only 16 MB of system memory, using Windows XP with terminal emulation software in place of the original monochrome 'dumb terminals'. No idea if they're still using it or if they've replaced it with something else by now.
