Also available today is Disney Interactive Studios’ Discs of Tron on Xbox Live Arcade for Xbox 360. Discs of Tron will be available worldwide for 400 Microsoft Points ((that’s US$5 / €4.80 / £3.40 / CAN$6.20 / AU$6.60).

The arcade classic is back! Play Discs Of Tron and battle Sark for video-warrior supremacy. Twelve levels of disc-hurling action await!

Key game features include:
* Perfect recreation: Discs of Tron for Xbox LIVE Arcade is a perfect recreation of the classic arcade game based on the pioneering computer animated Disney Film.
* Next-gen presentation: Authentic graphics, game play, and audio have been upgraded to take advantage of the Xbox 360 high-def graphics and sound (CD bit rate quality).

* Electronic battleground: Get transported to an exciting world of sight, sound, and energy!
* Disc combat: Play as Tron and fling discs at Sark in an attempt to knock him off his platform. Sark has his own discs as well as two unique weapons—a chaser and super chaser making defeating him even more difficult.
