Game Review «Tron: Evolution»

Tron game world is firmly grounded in market conditions in the arts in 1982. That was the time when the Space Invaders from Taito was the most popular board game in every youth club, and if you were not home the Atari 2600, you teased without mercy.

«Tron: Evolution», action from a third person, the events that take place seven years after the events of the film Tron, has all the same elements, advanced to XXI-st century. We know them and trace their ancestry ...

Svetotsiklah

Svetotsiklah from the world Tron are central to the action of the game Tron: Evolution just like in the movies Tron and Tron: Legacy. No wonder - Light Cycles itself has become a legendary game. Arcade Tron replaced it, but a number of informal adaptations were not allowed to interrupt the line - since most times to the present.





Her pedigree, however, extends further than in those same times. You should be well-known for "Snake» (Snake), living in all the cell phones from Nokia. The earliest instance of this gameplay we can find in the game Blockade, released in 1976 and soon augmented console version for Atari, called Surround.



The game «Tron: Evolution» You get the same gameplay in 3D from a third party. 3D - excellent. There is only one feature that you will not find in any other formal or informal, the game Tron - You can go in and out of position svetotsiklah. Obviously, the game it becomes necessary.



Just do not forget - walking around walking around the arena svetotsiklah, you are as vulnerable as stuffed stuff from the supermarket trolley, and be sure to be tempted by the possibility of the enemy to crush you. So the tactic is better, perhaps, to use infrequently.

Discs

Disks are still the main weapon of close combat in the game «Tron: Evolution». Deadly wheels. One of the reasons that Tron is still so cool. Keep your RPG and rocket launcher, I have my frisbee.





So the wheels of death, where did you come from? We dare to suggest that they were inspired by the first wave of games of the sport. Games such as Pong and Breakout. The evidence? They can easily be found in the film - the gameplay within the structure (Grid) resembles an arena for the two players who know anyone who plays on old consoles: the same were on billions of cartridges.

Tanks

One of the biggest, moving opponents in Tron, battle tanks, also appear in the «Tron: Evolution» - in a new, improved form. Players old school quickly identify two of their ancestors among the classics of the genre. First - Combat of Atari, one of those games that are sold in their times with each 2600 m. The gameplay was simple. You tank. Your opponent - the same tank. You ride around the neighborhood and try to hit the enemy. Cheers.







A second, steeper, the ancestor of the tanks of the game - favorite car of all arcade Battlezone. Three-dimensional vector style and luminous structure (Grid) from the game, which appeared two years before Tron, obviously influenced by the aesthetics of the latter.

Resolvers

Resolvers, slowly floating shredders programs, made the game more catchy and sinister than their clumsy prototypes of Tron, there have been clear from whom - that, of course, Space Invaders. So, in the game Tron: Evolution you will have a feel for what it is - when you are riding on svetotsiklah, pounces invader from outer space.
