Play Space Paranoids! (Yes, that “Space Paranoids”… cough… Tron… cough… )

Wired Game|Life - Play Tron’s Fake Arcade Game, Space Paranoids

“Space Paranoids never appeared in arcades and never really existed, but now you can play the classic Tron videogame online.

The fictional company Encom launched a browser-based version of Space Paranoids Thursday that is free to play (no quarters required).

Space Paranoids is the fictional videogame created by master programmer Kevin Flynn in the 1982 movie Tron. The slick new browser game, a promotional piece for the forthcoming movie Tron Legacy, was announced at a fake press conference at WonderCon in San Francisco last month.

Despite being an ad, Space Paranoids does a remarkable job of re-creating the look and feel of the phony game we saw in the old Disney movie.

Come on, you KNOW that’s cool!  :)
