Looking for Specific Tron-like 3D PC Game

Hello,


I'm looking for a specific game that I played many years ago, but cannot remember the name of. I'm asking around here because I think I first found it on these forums or the old Image of the Day feature (and if not, I'm sure enough of you have played games that maybe one of you can recognize it! :). Unfortunately, due to some of the search criteria, I can't seem to narrow down my Google searches enough to find it.

-It was a 3D, first-person PC game.

-It took place inside a virtual, cyber world, whose atmosphere (and graphic theme) was VERY similar to the cyber world of the Tron universe - bright glowing colors, basic polygonal structure. (This is what I mean by "Tron-like" - not that it was a light-cycle game or an adaptation of the original arcade game).

-The goal was to sneak around and achieve certain objectives. You walked around the cyber world/city, into buildings, and there were computer terminals you could access (and possibly hack?). I believe some doors were locked, and part of the objective was finding keys or accessing these locked areas.

-I do remember a major part of the game was trying to figure out how to play the game - learning about the world and how it worked was part of the point of the game, I think.

-Outside, in the city streets, I think some Tron-like tanks or robot sentinels were roving around, which had to be avoided.

-It was a downloadable freeware game. Note that it WASN'T a Tron game (official or otherwise), just in a setting clearly inspired by Tron. So not Tron 2.0.

-It came out many years ago (well before Tron: Legacy). I think I played it sometime between 2004 and 2009 (likely in the early half of that time range, rather than later).

Does any of this ring a bell for anyone? If so, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction. Looking for "game inspired by Tron" that isn't actually a Tron game or a lightcycle game has yielded nothing for me, as you can imagine.

Thanks!

Hmm, could be the Cholo remake:
