It is the only video game that is also a movie. Although I play Tron often, I have never seen the movie. I just don't have the money. I place my two hundredth quarter on the control panel to reserve the next game. Before it's my turn I have some time to watch the other people within the parlor.
All video players develop their own ways of playing the games.
Inexperienced players handle the controls spasmodically and nervously. To make up for their slow reaction time they slam the joystick much harder than necessary, under the assumption that if they can't beat the machine through skill, then they'll win out of brute strength. This often includes kicking the coin return or beating upon the screen. Of course this is exactly what the machine wants. The angrier you get when you play these games, the worse you play.
