TRON movie poster from IMDb
I was reading an article on massively.joystiq.com today that talked about movies that MMO fans might appreciate. The first movie mentioned was TRON: Legacy.
Being an MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) fan myself, and having watched the original TRON (Yes, I’m that old), I think a TRON MMO would be pretty cool to play. Then the thought hit me: Wouldn’t that be kind of redundant? A real person playing a computer game as a virtual avatar which represents a virtual avatar of a “real” person in a computer game?
Don’t think about that too hard if paradoxes give you a headache. Or if neon lighting gives you a headache.
I think a TRON MMO would be visually stunning and the gameplay would be fast, furious, and fun. I’m not sure whether such a game would be able to compete in the MMO marketplace in the long term, but I’d sure love to try zipping around on a LightCycle. Who wouldn’t?
Would you play a TRON MMO if it were ever developed? Leave a comment!
