Description: More popular than the movie, selling over 300,000 units. A “re-graphic” version of Tron Deadly Discs can be found as a hidden game in INTV Corp’s Dig Dug. Blue Sky Ranger jokester Dave Warhol replaced the enemies with the hot dogs from Burgertime for his own personal amusement… those guys!
Easter eggs: Open the top left and top right doors, enabling you to go in one door and out the other. Step out the top right or top left door and stay there. 90% of the enemy discs go through you and your man can’t be hit or destroyed. If you stay there, you can reach a score of 1,000,000 easily just by breaking the enemy's discs and throwing your disc enough to keep one enemy on the screen. Once you close in on a million points, don't destroy any more warriors. Just hold your disc in the block mode and break discs. If you do get hit just go back and forth for repair. (Never throw a disc to destroy a warrior or you might get a replacement that carries the stick).

Santulli Slant: By far the best game among the TRON console titles (none of these compare to the most excellent coin-op), in this one, various electronic monkeys throw feces at you. Avoid the feces or catch them in your bag o’ feces. The only way to destroy the monkeys is to throw feces back at them! If you get really good, they’ll stop throwing them at you and instead attempt to maul you with their golden shafts. It’s true, that’s what’s happening. [Gr: 7, So: 9, Ga: 8, Ov: 8]
