Track & Field from Konami - Image 1Button mashing. It's probably one of the most basic human instincts of a gamer. So, when a button-mashing game that hails from 1983 comes running into the Xbox Live Arcade, you can bet your sore thumbs on a (s)mash hit reincarnation.

Following last week's Marathon: Durandal and Spyglass Board Games, a press release from Microsoft has announced the incoming title for this XBLA Wednesday: Konami's Track & Field.

The game features online leaderboards and track time records, plus a four player mode on one console or over XBL. Dashing into the finish line at 400 MS Points, the game will arrive on August 8, Wednesday, 09:00 GMT.

In the same press release, they've also given us a sneak peak of what to expect in the future:
  • Ecco the Dolphin
  • Hexic 2
  • War World
  • Geon: Emotions
  • Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords
  • Space Giraffe
  • Streets of Rage 2
  • Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
Yeah, summer was never this good. Meanwhile, better start warming up those thumbs.
