Microsoft and Konami have announced the original ‘Track and Field’ button-masher from 1983 will be available this Wednesday, August 8 beginning at 9:00 a.m. GMT (2:00 a.m. PDT) on Xbox Live Arcade for 400 Microsoft Points.
The return of ‘Track and Field’ will be identical to the original except for new four-player competitive gameplay either on one Xbox 360 console or over Xbox Live. Those brave enough to make the download better be ready for some sore fingers.
