simulation

this game is admitadly complete rubbish when you play by yourself for more than 5 minutes. HOWEVER, get a few frinds over and play in a tounament, and NO game can compare to this one. the sheer fun of destroying your gamepad, just to jump that inch further, or run thet milklisecond faster is incomparable. lining up for the 100m race with your friends...the voice says ready.....get set...and then you shout GO!!! all your friends jump and get false starts. i played this game in the arcade and at home. i love it anywhere. a supreme peice of multiplayer event gaming, BUY IT NOW and never look back. fun is worth more than what you pay for it when you buy track and field.

This is a very good game. It is a little different from the old version but still is very good. It has a couple of different events like canoeing, horse vault, springboard, and weightlifting. It takes a little practice but it's worth it.

This is the same track & field game from the mid-80s, with better graphics. Controls are simple; just press the buttons as fast as you can. Not as fun when you play by yourself (actually, it's pretty depressing), but the fun factor multiplies 10 fold when competing against friends. A great party game. Tension rises once you start breaking records. And yes, it can give your hands a workout.
