Microsoft has spread clarity on our toast and told us Tron and Omega Five will be on Live Arcade tomorrow.

Omega Five we told you about last week; a handsome side-scrolling shooter where you control a ninja-like character Geometry Wars-style and blow screens full of enemies up. Also, local co-op and 800 Points (GBP 6.80 / EUR 9.30).

Tron, on the other hand, is that retro arcade treat we were promised last summer by Disney who must have fallen asleep. It features a quartet of mini-games inspired by the 1982 film of the same name, things like light cycles, battle tanks, input/output tower, that sort of stuff. Made more money than its big-screen counterpart, too.

Like most of the oldies on Live Arcade it has both original and super mega enhanced version with better graphics, sound, and a co-operative or versus modes for you and a chum. Tron will trounce you for 400 Points (GBP 3.40 / EUR 4.65).
