Microsoft is planning to delist underperforming games from Live Arcade. Games have to score at least 65% on Metacritic, and have a conversion rate of 6% or greater. Conversion rate means how many people buy the game after trying the demo.
Considering how poorly the Tron games did on Metacritic, it looks like they're threatened with being delisted in the near future.

Their latest big title, Turok, also received a pretty crappy score.
