This Wednesday, for 400 Microsoft Points, get ready to engage in frantic button mashing as Konami’s original arcade hit Track and Field is released on the Live Arcade. This 1983 classic now supports network play against four other opponents through Xbox Live, and has been visually upgraded with new sprites, backgrounds and special effects.

Coinciding with the announcement of Track and Field, Microsoft also announced a bunch of titles that will be hitting the Live Arcade throughout the summer weeks. The list, not in any particular order, includes Ecco the Dolphin, Hexic 2, War World, Geon: Emotions, Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, Space Giraffe, Streets of Rage 2, and the much-anticipated Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix.
