[B]Adidas goes back to the future with a pair of special edition ZX500s that come packaged with their own videogame.[/B] The "biomechanically correct" kicks were initially launched in the mid-80's, but Adidas Originals has kept them well up to date. Complete with Pac-Man pellet stud soles and requisite rainbow-layered shock foam, each pair also includes a USB key fueled with "ZX Runner," an Atari-era platformer. Adidas breaks it down for us:
[INDENT] “ZX Runner,” is an ’80s-style platformer that lets you take on the role of DJ Zed as he races through to a blacked-out neighborhood to get to his midnight set on time. With 5 minutes on the clock, you will need to run, moon-walk, climb walls, avoid some dodgy-looking thugs, collect power-ups, and pull off insane rooftop-to-rooftop stunts to make it to the stage. [/INDENT] You can pull a pair down (for a bit more than a quarter) at any Adidas Originals store or [URL=http://www.shopadidas.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3729169&shopGroup=R&cp=&y=0&x=0&colorId=]online[/URL].
