Tron Legacy: Flynn Lives Members Get Package For Finding Sam, Killing Recognizers

Dan Koelsch,

The countdown to Space Paranoids Online is still going, and while you watch the time tick away, you may have shot down a few Recognizers in the process. As we reported, shooting down 99 of the tank-like vehicles gives you an achievement on Flynn Lives, if you are a member. Well, if you get 999 kills, you get something even better.

Thanks to the Unfiction forums , we know several members of Flynn Lives (you can sign up to become one at FlynnLives.com) received packages in the mail today from Flynn Lives. The box of goodies looks to be a reward for finding Sam and shooting down 999 Recognizers on the the Space Paranoids Online countdown page. Here’s what MovieViral reader VanGoghX, who got a package, wrote in a comment:

42E [the company behind the Tron Legacy Viral] has sent out more freebies tied to the new badges awarded for the “Find Sam” and “Shoot 999 Recognizers” games listed above.

Flynn Lives members who completed the games get a package with the following inside:
-piece of paper that reads “Thanks for helping us track down Sam in Rio Fiamente. Show your support.”
-piece of paper that reads “999 You are a Recognizer killing machine!”
-two stickers with Sam Flynn’s 89 logo (‘89 is the year his dad disappeared)
-metal pin with Sam’s 89 logo
-metal pin with “Space Paranoids” and a Recognizer on it

Pretty darn cool, eh?



Very cool indeed. Here’s a photo from an Unfiction forum member who also got one of the packages in the mail. Click on the image to see it in full size.





This is really a win-win for 42 Entertainment and fans of the film/ARG. We get free stuff, and they get free advertising (try telling me you aren’t going to put the sticker on your car or the metal pin on your backpack/suitcase). In case that isn’t enough Tron Legacy news for you, we also got a fourth banner that shows a four-wheeled vehicle not seen in the original Tron.





If you find anything else out, let us know! You can join the game by checking out Unfiction and our Tron Legacy Viral Page. Tron Legacy opens in December.

Overture’s Let Me In has an interesting viral campaign. While there have websites and mailings, the viral hasn’t really gone anywhere. There is no direction. Still, I find all the little bits to be fun and very intricately tied to the film, like the most recent update, a postcard from…

  1. Very cool indeed. I hope I can get one from the other side of the planet.. (blinks beautiful eyes to 42E ;>)

    Just asking: Is it true that if you don’t get 999 recognizer kills, you also won’t be able to get the Space Paranoids pin?..

    And, uhh.. Wrong linking (?) job on the “f” in the “fourth banner” there… serious (and hot spanking guy) who hates mistakes over here. :p 😀 xD

  3. i’m also a MovieViral reader ;D
    that’s sweet that you used my pic!

  5. got the 99 kills badge, but once i get to 999, nothing happens!!! tried it twice!!
    theres only 1 day and 15 hours left at this point.. i’m willing to do it all again maybe two more times if i have to.
    is anyone else having this same problem??

  6. @adam, the site sends the data once you get those 999 kills but it takes a few minutes to send.

  7. i JUST received my package! i think the “999” is a typo. i only killed 99 recognizers. i got everything in the package except for the space paranoids pin. 🙁 but it’s all gravy. my first shipment! i never got my encom badge though.

    needs more daft punk!

  8. So my Flynn Lives care package came in the mail. Got credit for finding same and killing 999 Space Paranoids. Gotta say this has been the damn best viral I have been a part of.

  9. the countdown clock has reached zero, and i still haven’t gotten my overkill badge. i’ve killed over 3,000 of those recognizers, and it just wont give me the badge!! i want the space paranoids pin from flynn lives!!

    and @josh, i disagree.. i had sooooooooo much fun doing TDK’S Joker viral games. getting Gotham newspapers and vote for harvey dent packs.
