Greetings Programs!

As you can see Tron has finally come to VMK. A few months ago we previewed two Tron costumes and the feedback was phenomenal! You asked for more and here it is. September is Tron month and we're so excited we've created Tron games, Quests and other Tron related events.

Ok, so you might be thinking "isn't Tron that old movie from the 80's? Why is VMK making such a big deal about Tron?" Well, because of what Tron is... it's the story of a game designer/programmer who gets sucked into a video game - and not just any game, a game he created!

It's also one of the first movies to use CG (computer generated graphics) and was a major influence for John Lasseter of Pixar. Plus, over the last few years there has been a rebirth of Tron, with the release of an XBOX and Gameboy Advance game as well as the character making an appearance in the PlayStation 2 game, Kingdom Hearts 2. Last but not least the VMK development team are all huge fans of the movie and have waited for over a year to bring it into VMK.

Tron not your thing? Then keep your eyes open for a brand new game based on the Disney water parks. I'd also start saving those credits... with Halloween fast approaching you never know what costumes may be on sale again, or for the first time ever.

Thanks for playing and see you in VMK,

Yavn
