Armagetron is a multiplayer game in 3d that attempts to emulate and expand on the lightcycle sequence from the movie Tron. It’s an old school arcade game slung into the 21st century. Highlights include a customizable playing arena, HUD, unique graphics, and AI bots. For the more advanced player there are new game modes and a wide variety of physics settings to tweak as well.

    Nice game, the light cycles are the only good thing to come from the movie Tron, IMO. The 3D graphics are really nice. However, the stupid game doesn’t remember resolution settings and starts up in 640×480 every time, like it’s 1995. They really need to fix that. Every other setting I customized stayed the same when I exited and restarted the game, just the resolution and fullscreen yes/no changed, which is really annoying.

    If you want a good light cycle game that also has 3D graphics and remembers your settings from game to game, try GLTron. Plus, it really gets crazy because you play against 3 opponents, not just 1.

    Gets a bit dull after playing against the AI. Best played with friends (or enemies).
