Tron 2.0 Review

GamersHell has published their review of Tron 2.0, Buena Vista's latest FPS, here's a brief synopsis:

Jet is a 21-year-old game programmer who comes from a family of scientists. Jet’s mother passed away a while before the story in the game begins, so Jet and his father have had to make do with each other’s company for a while. Jet’s father, Alan, wants his son to follow his path in life, but a conflict arises when Jet turns down a high-profile programming offer that didn’t interest him the way game development does. At the end of the conversation a virus attacks the ENCOM servers at Alan’s lab, and almost simultaneously Alan seems to be attacked by some strangers. These guys are from a company named Future Control, or fCon for short, and they are prepared to do whatever it takes to get some algorithms that Alan made. Jet doesn’t like the sound of this at all, but just as he’s about to head over to his father, an AI by the name of Ma3a digitizes Jet, putting him inside the ENCOM servers. Jet needs to figure out what’s going on, stop the virus attack, escape those who think HE’s a virus, and hopefully even make it out of here.

pc.ign.com thought about the same thing. Same exact score anyway.

I don't know, I'm enjoying it so far. Too bad the controller support seems flaky, it only remembers about half the settings I tell it and controller profiles are ignored by the game, so I'm stuck playing with the KB & M. Not my favorite way to play. But it seems pretty cool.
