On the other side of the screen, it all looks so easy.

Cloudscout pointed me in the direction of this little gem.  If you are not (or even if you are) an avid reader of PvP, you may have missed this string of comics dating back to May 2005. It’s very appropriate for this group. Go on over and have a read.

Don’t worry!  We just want to borrow it.  I think the same “rules” will apply, if you have a console that you want to share please let us know which one it is and be prepared to bring your own T.V. or monitor for it.  If you have a unique console and don’t have a spare T.V. or Monitor we certainly want you to bring it.

Sound off. What will you bring?

So… I couldn’t find any authentic Flynn’s tee shirts online. And I was trying to figure out if they were blue or black or had anything on the front. Luckily I had the movie in my pocket. I carefully researched and found that they were both blue and black depending on the scene and the person wearing them. They only have the logo on the back. I just made one up and ordered it.

Mark your calendars…

There’ll be retro Arcade games, console games, computer games, MAME machines and more.

Cloudscout will be hosting. We’re already starting the search for T.V.s and Monitors to borrow for this event. Don’t worry, he’s got a generator in case we run out of power. ;-)

Another Tron-like game is about to be released over Steam. Tank Universal was released independently last year, but now is getting a bit more exposure through Steam. I haven’t played it yet, but the screens and vids seem cool. Your quick blurb:

Tank Universal creates a huge virtual ‘Tron-like’ world where you take part in immense 3D tank battles involving scores of units both friendly and not so friendly in wide open levels!

Players can bombard the enemy from a distance or close the gap and dodge shells point blank - all in an immersive first person perspective.
