I've created a new picture, but not gonna put it in the gallery, since it's almost identical to my last, but I created those flying things from Tron and wanted to show them off. Gonna work on Tron tanks next. The depressing thing here is that probably a lot of you weren't even born when the film came out.

born in 83 here. as for those gates, i'd say the technical term is "thingomabop" drac (always helpful)

Boy, do I feel old... but you're only as young as you feel... The movie called them "Recognizers" and they were the flying craft of the MCP (or Master Control Program). Basically the equivalent of helicopter recon vehicles... Ken

I was out of college 3 years, young padawan..I've only seen the movie once, but they were named after some computer procedure..just don't remember what it is..now my son was born that year, though..;)

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit

anahl nathrak uth vas betude doth yel dyenvey..;)

Born in 71, and i really miss those old arcades with the classics. Pac Man, Defender, Centepide etc
Today its fighting and fighting or fighting or... :(

Don't worry Rochr. If you go around the corner behind the Skeeball there's still a whole row of racing games. (Hydro Thunder and Sega Rally are some of my favs.) And I think they still have some classic games in the area by the pinball machines. I also vaguely remember Tron, and it's associated video game. I wonder if it's the first movie to have a game based on it? I liked the speeder bike levels in the game, but wasn't so keen on the part where that guy chucks killer discs at my guy.

Also feel free to browse my freebies at ShareCG.
There might be something worth downloading.

I too am old enough to remember this. In fact Tron was the game my boyfriend at the time used to play. I couldn't get into that one. I loved Joust. You rode on these flapping Rocs (I think). Oh so long ago.

Everyone liked the cycles best. Anyone tried the new version (2.0) that came out last year? I played for a while, but then got bored of it. Bit of a CPU killer too (like some 3d apps I could mention)

Jeez, but I feel old!

All the Woes of a World by Jonathan Icknield aka The Bryster

And in my final hours - I would cling rather to the tattooed hand of kindness - than the unblemished hand of hate...

At least I wasn't born when 2001 came out. :-)

I got the film on DVD a few months ago and although I've seen it umpteen times I still adore it. And yes I definately feel old too. 8P

For pakled: the name is from a prompt command, TRace ON. Yes, I'm that old... :P

There's nothing worse then someone that works for you explaining they weren't born when you finished college :( Tron is still one of the all time greats I love it.....

saw it when i was 17 or so, liked the 3deffects (not the foamrubber suits with glow in the dark paint lol) but found the story alittle too much jesus saves the world as in that first matrix movie. best scene was when they rode the data line.

for some free stuff i made
and for almost daily fotos

Born in "Summer of '64" . Saw the movie, played the stand up acrade version of the game back in the days of real video gaming. Love it.

Anyone remember the old arcade game "Death Race 2000" ??
Just wondering,
