This FAQ is currently 52 pages when you print in ASCII, not in a word processor. Every thing in this FAQ is 100% confirmed unless marked with a ? if marked with a ?? that means that it's unknown. This FAQ is for the Update to one of the Hottest Video Games in history, Mortal Kombat 3. With this update MK3 gets more characters, secrets, and much much more. This is going to be the final MK3 update, or so they say, until MK4. This is really considered a whole new game by Midway, it's not just a small, few chip upgrade. The boot even says ULTIMATE MK3 v1.0 not MORTAL KOMBAT 3 version X.X. This game has a whole new set of version #'s from 1.0 up. No test the version # of your game do the 9-9-9-9-9-9 Kombat Kode. There are new chip sets going around with the version number of 1.1 and 1.2. The only difference is that the CPU is HARDER! I highly recommend that you read this FAQ in DOS Edit or any other ASCII Text editor, not a work processor. In ASCII I added page breaks and it prints better that way. But if you do read this is in a word processor this is the best configuration: Font = Courier; Size = 9 ************************************ 4 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** STORY LINE ** **************************************************************************** YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO REPRESENT EARTH IN MORTAL KOMBAT. BE WARNED. ALTHOUGH YOUR SOULS ARE PROTECTED AGAINST SHAO KAHN'S EVIL; YOUR LIVES ARE NOT. I CANNOT INTERFERE ANY LONGER AS YOUR EARTH IS NOW RULED BY OUTWORLD GODS. THESE ARE THE WORDS OF RAYDEN. FOR CENTURIES EARTH HAS USED MORTAL KOMBAT TO DEFEND ITSELF AGAINST THE OUTWORLD'S EMPEROR SHAO KAHN. BUT, KAHN BECOMES FRUSTRATED BY FAILED ATTEMPTS AT TAKING EARTH THROUGH TOURNAMENT BATTLE. HE ENACTS A PLAN WHICH BEGAN 10,000 YEARS AGO. DURING THIS TIME KAHN HAD A QUEEN. HER NAME WAS SINDEL AND HER YOUNG DEATH WAS UNEXPECTED. KAHN'S SHADOW PRIESTS, LEAD BY SHANG TSUNG, MAKE IT SO SINDEL'S SPIRIT WOULD SOMEDAY BE REBORN; NOT ON THE OUTWORLD BUT ON THE EARTH REALM ITSELF. THIS UNHOLY ACT GIVES SHAO KAHN THE POWER TO STEP THROUGH THE DIMENSIONAL GATES AND RECLAIM HIS QUEEN. THUS ENABLING HIM TO FINALLY SEIZE THE EARTH REALM. UPON BREACHING THE PORTAL INTO EARTH, SHAO KAHN SLOWLY TRANSFORMS THE PLANET INTO A PART OF THE OUTWORLD ITSELF. KAHN STRIPS THE EARTH OF ALL HUMAN LIFE; CLAIMING EVERY SOUL AS HIS OWN. BUT THERE ARE SOULS WHICH KAHN CANNOT TAKE. THESE SOULS BELONG TO THE WARRIORS CHOSEN TO REPRESENT EARTH IN A NEW MORTAL KOMBAT. SOME OF EARTH'S WARRIORS SURVIVE THE ATTACKS. MOST DO NOT. BUT THE REMAINING FEW HOLD THE ONE CHANCE AT SAVING ALL OF HUMAN KIND. THE REMAINING HUMANS ARE SCATTERED THROUGHOUT THE PLANET. SHAO KAHN SENDS AN ARMY OF FIERCE OUTWORLD WARRIORS TO FIND AND ELIMINATE THEM. AFTER THE FIRST TOURNAMENT SONYA BLADE TURNED UP MISSING. JAX THEN EMBARKED ON A RESCUE MISSION INTO THE OUTWORLD. HE FOUND SONYA BEING HELD CAPTIVE WITH HER NEMESIS KANO. IN FREEING SONYA, JAX ALSO FREES KANO. KANO THEN USES THE CHANCE TO ESCAPE ARREST. THE ULTIMATE ADVANCEMENT IN LIN KUEI TECHNOLOGY COMES WITH THE CREATION OF THE FIRST CYBER-ASSASSIN. THEY BEGIN CONVERTING THEIR HUMAN NINJAS INTO SOULLESS MACHINES. BUT SUB-ZERO REFUSES TO TAKE PART AND IS MARKED FOR DEATH BY HIS OWN CLAN. AFTER WINNING THE FIRST MORTAL KOMBAT AND ESCAPING FROM THE OUTWORLD, LIU KANG LOOKS TO THE FUTURE. HE BEGINS TRAINING A NEW GENERATION OF SHAOLIN ALONGSIDE KUNG LAO. BUT NOTHING COULD PREPARE THEM FOR THE UNEXPECTED OUTWORLD INVASION. ************************************ 5 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** GENERAL DEFINITIONS ** **************************************************************************** Run Button: The Run Button is the yellow button that is new to MK. It's Down and to the Left of the Low Punch Button. You can run forward by holding run and towards. While you run the Run Meter under your life bar will go down, like the Turbo meter in NBA JAM, and then fill back up after you stop running. This is used to do a quick attack to the other fighter. Special Moves: Special Moves are attacks that are unique to each fighter. Special Moves usually take more damage off an opponent than a normal attack. They are done with joystick and button combinations. These are very useful to fighting, it's recommended that you learn these to have a better chance. Kombos: Kombos are combinations of kicks, punches, and or special moves. A successful kombo can damage your opponent heavily, but combos are limited to the Length of your Run Meter, because while you do a kombo the Run Meter goes down and limits the number of hits. You can get high hitting combos if you use the Unlimited Run KK. After you finish a kombo the screen shows the # of hits and % of damage inflicted upon your opponent. These are attacks that are VERY useful, you can easily defeat your opponent with these if they are suspecting. You can start a combo by a Jump Punch, you just jump at them with HP and start your combo after the HP hits. LP might work but HP is the best way. Also with jumping kicks U can at times, but not as easy. Finishing Moves: Finishing Moves are Special Moves that are done ONLY after the game says "FINISH HIM/HER!!" After it says this you should quickly get to the distance that the move requires you to be at and do the movements/button presses. The different Finishing Moves are listed below. You have a very limited time to do a move, like 5-10 seconds. Fatality: A Fatality is a Finishing Move that kills your opponent. A fatality can be many different things. There are only two Fatalities per person and 1 or more might be added in MK3 Ultimate, every one hopes this! Mercy: A Mercy is a Finishing Move that can only be done in Round 3. A mercy gives your opponent a small amount of life back for a last chance to live. To do a mercy you do this movement: Hold RUN, D, D, Release then your opponent regains consciousness after the word MERCY comes on the screen. You have to be farther than sweep distance in order to get this to work. It also helps if you hold RUN for two seconds, do the two downs, then Release RUN. Animality: An Animality is a Finishing Move where your character turns into an animal and kills his/her victim. An animality MUST be done after a mercy, and each character has different movements for the animality. Babality: A Babality is a Finishing Move that turns your opponent into a Baby. In Order to do a Babality you must not use block in the winning round. The word Babality is spelled out in Building Block letters. Friendship: A Friendship is a Finishing Move that makes you be friends with your opponent. You can't use block in the Winning Round. Shao Kahn says "Friendship, Friendship" just as before then he Says "Again?" The word friendship is spelled out in balloons that are blown up and get smaller while Shao Kahn talks. ************************************ 6 *********************************** Stage Fatal: A Stage Fatal is a finishing move where you kill your opponent with help from the stage that you are in. You can do this in The Bell Tower, The Pit 3, Subway, and Hell. To find out what the Fatals do read the stages description. Kombat Kodes: A Kombat Code is a six digit code that you can put in on the 2 Player VS screen. After you and your opponent pick fighters to see a screen with your fighters from the waist up in a battle stance. At the bottom there is 6 boxes with icons in it. Player one controls the first three with LP (First Box), BL (Second Box), and LK (Third Box). Player two controls the last three with LP (Fourth Box), BL (Fifth Box), and LK (Sixth Box). You can cycle through the icons backwards if you hold Up and press one of your buttons. If you and player two put together the 6 icons in a special order you'll get an effect in the game, which will be shown on the bottom of the screen when the round begins. The Ultimate Kombat Kodes: The Ultimate Kombat Kode or UKK is a Kode that you put in after you die in a one player game and don't continue. Then the game asks you for The Ultimate Kombat Kode and if you get it wrong it says Incorrect Kode and Shao Kahn taunts you. There are 3 rows of codes and one button effects all 3 codes. If you put in The Ultimate Kode it'll unlock Ermac, Mileena, or Classic Sub-Zero. Mortal Kombat: Normal MK3, 4 towers. This is normal One on One fighting, one player or two. 4 Player 2 on 2: This is like the old MK1 Endurance matches. You and your opponent pick 2 people, who stand closely side by side, and you have two cursors. Kombat Kodes are allowed and some only work in 4 player. When your first person dies, the second one comes down to fight while the old one stays there, or blows up in EXPLOS. KOMBAT. In the second round your second pick starts the match. Also you get to continue play after you do this, you have to let the time to continue run out to get the free games. Most places have f or 8 tokens. This is only 2 Player Tag Team, not a 4 player tourney. 8 Player Tounament: The 8 Player Tournament is a single elimination tournament setup where eight people fight each other with one character. Winners only continue. You only have one round to fight. Kombat Kodes are allowed but only the one player kodes. When the tourney is finished you can choose an ending like a normal one player game on the 2nd MASTER! Player 1 - | -- Winner -- Player 2 - | | ---- Winner ---- Player 3 - | | | -- Winner -- | Player 4 - | FINAL BATTLE | -- GRAND CHAMPION Player 5 - | | -- Winner -- | Player 6 - | | | ---- Winner ---- Player 7 - | | -- Winner -- Player 8 - ************************************ 7 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** WHERE TO FIND THE GAME ** **************************************************************************** Ultimate MK3 Revision 1.0 is out at most arcades, expect a few that are unaware.

Or use a code :) ] ** Soul Chamber ** Kombat Zone Kode: 1 - 2 - 3 - 9 - 0 - 1 You are fighting in a cave like area. There is a large figure of an open monster mouth with greenish smoke, bodiless souls, moving around inside. You can see some faces peek out of it at times. There are some giant skull figures with their mouths open in the background. There are some spikes on the edge of the walkway that look like teeth. There are also a few statues of the MK 2 Sorcerers. You can get knocked through the ceiling here up to The Balcony. ** The Graveyard ** Kombat Zone Kode: U+4 - U+4 - U+4 - 3 - 3 - 3 You are fighting in a graveyard at night. The night sky is a very dark purple. A lot of the tombstones have some interesting names like, Boon, Tobias, Beran, Michicich, etc. They all seem to have died on April 1, 1995, which is April fool's day and the day that MK3 was shipped, and released at most places. There are also some tombstones with the MK Dragon logo on top. And it appears that the names on the graves switch places every round or two. ** Bell Tower ** Kombat Zone Kode: 0 - U+1 - 1 - 1 - U+1 - 0 You are fighting in a bell tower which can see out the windows to the night sky. Everything is made of wood. You can see the moon in the background. Performing your character's Pit Fatality movement on this stage will knock them down through seven wooden floors. At the bottom, there are a bunch of spikes that your opponent lands in. ** Pit 3 ** Kombat Zone Kode: U+2 - 2 - 0 - 0 - 2 - U+2 You are fighting on a bridge with spikes on the side of the walkway. There are floating green lamps in the background. There are big statues of faces in the back and sides of the stage. In this stage you knock them down into the pit, when you hit the bottom there are big turning blades that will cut you up into lots of pieces. ** Subway ** Kombat Zone Kode: U+2 - U+2 - 0 - 0 - U+2 - U+2 You are fighting on the subway tracks in the rail depot. The overhead lights are flickering on and off. When you uppercut your opponent, he/she gets smashed up into the street and then you follow. You cannot uppercut if you want to do the Pit Fatality on this stage. By doing the Pit Fatality, your opponent gets uppercuted up, as if it were a normal uppercut in a normal game, but instead of you following up behind him/her, he/she lands in the background on the Subway tracks and a subway train comes by and knocks them over. A real crowd pleaser. ************************************ 10 *********************************** ** Rooftop ** Kombat Zone Kode: 3 - 4 - 3 - 3 - 4 - 3 You are fighting on a rooftop, and there is a cityscape with Shao Kahn's tower in the very back with the portal circling the top. It appears that you can knock them down off the building to the bottom of the building. There is a big dragon logo on the floor in the center of the stage. ** Kahn's Tower ** Kombat Zone Kode: U+2 - U+2 - 0 - 2 - 2 - 0 It looks that you are fighting in a old castle. Off in the background, you can see a green glowing pit. There are large statues of Motaro to the far right and left. The green glowing pit seems to lead down into the mouth of the statue with the souls in the Soul Chamber. You can get to this stage from the Soul Chamber by uppercutting. ** The Bridge ** Kombat Zone Kode: 0 - 7 - 7 - 0 - 2 - 2 You are fighting on a street bridge. You can see some cityscape in the back. Plenty of newspapers and other litter blow in the wind. It looks like the bottom of the Rooftop stage. It also appears that this stage is right next to the street stage. ** Kombat Temple ** Kombat Zone Kode: 6 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 4 - 0 You are fighting in a church or temple. There is a large stained glass window in the back with the MK Dragon Logo on it. There is a red cloth draped over the altar that has a gold MK Dragon Logo on it, and there are red candles in the foreground. ** Street ** Kombat Zone Kode: 0 - U+3 - U+1 - 0 - 3 - 5 You are fighting in a city street. This is where you fight after going through the subway ceiling. This stage has paper and litter blowing in the wind in the background. This stage appears to be at the bottom of the rooftop stage. ** SCISLAC BUSOREZ ** Kombat Zone Kode: U+1 - 3 - 3 - U+1 - 3 - 3 (CLASSIC SUBZERO) You are fighting near a portal on a bridge. The Portal now has a blue color, and there is no electricity in side of it, yet. It has a very good 3D look with a walkway going into the center of the Portal. This looks more like the inside of the Portal, inbetween the two realms. The stage has the bridge with spikes on the side from The Pit 3, just different color. And the other bridge in the back from MK2's Pit 2. You fight here when Ermac Mileena, or Classic Sub-Zero is playing. ** Scorpion's Lair ** Kombat Zone Kode: U+4 - U+4 - U+4 - 4 - 4 - 4 You are fighting in what looks like hell. The stage has a pool of lava-like liquid in the background, and pillars with skeletons covering them. Some of the pillars have flames coming off them. You can also see a bridge with arcs in the background. You can uppercut through the ceiling here to get to The Cavern. The stage Fatal in this stage is pretty lame. You knock your victim up into the ceiling, then same rocks fall. Then they fall back down in the far back, like in the Subway, and land in the lava with a little spash and sizzle. ** River Kombat ** Kombat Zone Kode: 0 - 0 - 2 - 0 - 0 - 3 You are fighting along side of a river in the city. You can see the city on the other side of the river. There are two drawbridges on each side of the screen, they are under the water. The city is very detailed which makes it look real. The water even moves, I think. ************************************ 10 *********************************** ** Kahn's Kave ** Kombat Zone Kode: 0 - 0 - 4 - 7 - 0 - 0 You are fighting in a big cavern. You can see Shao Kahn watching the fight from the back, there is a big stone dragon statue behind him. You are fighting on top of the Dragon Logo, in the places of the circle with no dragon there is a small pit with a red glow coming out of it. You can also see two staircases that come down to the fighting arena from each side. Both sides seem to be going too far, nothing over on that part of the stage just darkness. ** Jade's Desert ** Kombat Zone Kode: 3 - 3 - 0 - 0 - 3 - 3 You are fighting on a cement walkway in the desert. There is a big Yin Yang in the center. There are ruins of an old civilization around the screen, lots of rubble. I think this stage looks real good. There is even Cyrax stuck in the sand in the background. People say that it changes from day time to night while round X comes on, but it's just a video bug, look at it at the end of a round or during a Fatality. ** Noob Saibot's Doorfen ** Kombat Zone Kode: 0 - 5 - 0 - 0 - 5 - 0 This is the stage where you fight Noob Saibot in. You can fight here with the Kombat Zone Kombat Kode. This stage is just the balcony without the wall and torches. **************************************************************************** ** THE KOMBATANTS ** **************************************************************************** Here is the new Character Select Screen: -------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | | | | | | | Kitana | Reptile | Sonya | Jax |Nightwolf| Jade | Scorpion| | | | | | | | | --------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|--------- | | | | Classic | | | Kano | Mileena | Ermac | Sub-Zero| Sub-Zero| | | | | | | ------------------------------------------------- | | | | | | | Sektor | Sindel | Stryker | Cyrax | Kung Lao| | | | | | | ------------------------------------------------- | | | | | | | Kabal | Sheeva | Shang | Liu Kang| Smoke | | | | Tsung | | | ------------------------------------------------- When you continue you get this screen: ---------------------------------------- | MORTAL | 4 Player | 8 Player | | KOMBAT | 2 on 2 | Tourney | |----------------------------------------| | Kredits = 0 | |----------------------------------------| | The stuff down here is the cost per | | person / both players on how much a | | 1 / 2 / 4 / 8 player game costs | |________________________________________| ************************************ 12 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** KITANA ** **************************************************************************** Character Description: Kitana returns in UMK3 with a blue string-tied corset jumpsuit.

He is a half human half horse creature known as part of the Centaurian race on the OUTWORLD. He has a metal plated belly and torso that relects projectiles back at his opponents. You can hit him with one projectile only, Sindel's air fireball. He is a very difficult opponent to some, easy to defeat to others; depends on your playing style. Theorys on how to defeat: Jumpkick + Kombo Theory: There is an easy way to make him jump, walk backwards and do a jump kick whenever he jumps up, then hold Back. When he gets up, he will jump up again for you to jump kick. When you jumpkick him he will fall back onto the ground. While he is laying back run over to him and do a kombo. You have to be quick or he will grab and smack you. Kombo Theory: Run in on him when he throws the fireball from his horns and Kombo him. Whenever you start a Kombo on him, if he is blocking the combo, in the middle of the combo he will quit blocking and your last hits from the kombo hit him. There are mid points to some combos in which he can grab you in the middle of your kombo. *** Shao Kahn *** Played by Brian Glynn Shao Kahn is a lot harder to defeat him than before. He still wears the same outfit but is now taller and has many new moves. He doesn't taunt you as much as MK2 but when he does he is very open to attacks. He uses a big steel mallet that he hits you with and makes you dizzy. He still has his Shadow Charge and a new Shadow Uppercut where he charges up into the air and hits you if you are standing within a half screen away. He also has a bright green spiked fireball that emits from his helmet. Theorys on how to defeat: Uppercut Theory: Hold D to aviod fireballs and hit Block when he charges but when he does his shadow uppercut and then Run at him and uppercut again or do a kombo . You can do this over and over, but sometimes he'll block the kombos and uppercuts. And while blocking if he taunts or laughs run at him and uppercut or kombo. Fast Fireball Theory: With characters like Sektor, Liu Kang, Stryker, and any other character with a fast projectile can beat him easily by using the fast projectile. Cyrax / Smoke / Sub-Zero / Classic Sub-Zero / and Scorpion Theorys: Using these people is easy, all you have to do is throw the catch move, run up, uppercut, catch move ... over and over again. But be careful, he can do a Shadow Uppercut right through your move. A catch move is like a spear / freeze / or net. ************************************ 36 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** OTHER CHARACTERS / HIDDEN GAMES ** **************************************************************************** *** Noob Saibot *** Played by John Turk Noob returns in UMK3 with a new look, he is once again a black Scorpion, be we have not seen a move yet.

This new way of hiding secrets is a combination lock system called Kombat Kodes. When you allign 6 digits in a special order you will unlock a secret. Kombat Kodes are found on the 2 player VS screen. The 2 player VS screen is the screen that comes up after you and your opponent pick you character, the screen shows your and your opponents characters from waist up in a fighting pose. At the bottom of the screen inbetween the two fighters there is 6 boxes that are where you insert the Kombat Kodes. Player one controls the first three boxes with: LP (First Box), BL (Second Box), and LK (Third Box). Player two controls the last three boxes with: LP (Fourth Box), BL (Fifth Box), and LK (Sixth Box). You can cycle through the icons backwards if you hold Up and press one of your buttons. If you insert a correct Kombat Kode you'll see a message on the bottom of the screen when the round begins telling you what the Kode did.

Answer: Yes the computer can because there is no UKK needed to play as Smoke. The characters that can be accessed via UKK can be fought also once the UKK has been placed in. Question: Will they add colors to Animalities? Answer: Nope, not for the old people. They had limited colors because of memory limitations and space. But all the new people have full color animalities that are VERY funny! Question: Have the old Fatalies changed? Answer: No, none were changed. ************************************ 47 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** KOOL STUFF ** **************************************************************************** * Random Select: U+Start on your side ( Player One: On Kitana ) ( Player Two: On Scorpion ) * You can be knocked through the ceiling in the Subway, The Soul Chamber, and Scorpion's Lair. * To get Dan Forden to pop up and say Toasty!: Do a combo over and over again or lots of uppercuts. This is the best way to get him to come up. * To get Dan Forden to pop up and say Frosty!: Be Sub-Zero and Freeze you opponent while in Danger. He will then pop up and say FROSTY! * To hear Shao Kahn say Krispy!: Do the Scoprion's Lair Fatal and hold both RUN buttons. Then you'll hear Shao Kahn say KRISPY! If you do this, then the Dan Forden Krispy trick right after both will happen after each other. * To get Dan Forden to pop up and say KRISPY!: Do the Scoprion's Lair Fatal and hold both HP buttons. Then Dan will pop up and say KRISPY! This can be done with the Shao Kahn Krispy trick. * At the end of the credits at the end of the game there is this message: KVOOONNMMIIGCS and this translates to: MKIV KOMING SOON or KOMING SOON MKIV * Noob Saibot and possibly Rain are all playable in someway we know this because of many things: while watching the game's intros we were lucky to see Human Smoke and Noob Saibot on the VS screen, and since Human Smoke is playable I guess Noob is also. There is also a clue from a chat with Boon/Tobias on AOL where they said that they are playable in some other way. This has now been proven false, they are NOT playable. * Play as hidden Characters with Randper Kombat: Here is the best way to do this. Start a 2 player game with a friend who doesn't care to die. Pick any two characters, and then insert the RANDPER KOMBAT Kombat Kode. Then defeat your opponent in round one, then in round two attack your opponent until they are close to danger. Then let them do the same to you. Then when you or your opponent are morphs into Mileena then quickly kill your opponent by sweeping over and over again. Then don't let anyone continue the game so you can beat it with Mileena. * Galaga: To play Galaga play 100 2 player games one after the other or do a Kombat Kode or beat the game and pick the 2nd icon. And you use HP to fire. Very expensive to do in a 2 Player game because you can't continue, unless you win, I think. ************************************ 48 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** WHERE TO FIND MORTAL KOMBAT STUFF ON THE NET ** **************************************************************************** -=[ FTP ( File Transfer Protocol ) ]=- * Ratman's MEGA site: ftp://killer.vailsys.com/mk/pub/ -=[ World Wide Web ]=- * THE SOUL CHAMBER WWW PAGE: (Maintained by (me) Patrick McCarron) http://killer.vailsys.com/soul/ * MK Information Center: http://killer.vailsys.com/mk/mkinfo.html ************************************ 49 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** BUGS SECTION ** **************************************************************************** Free Continues: First, Beat the game. Pick the third Icon which is a Yin Yang. It'll be Battle With Ermac. Get to round 3, perform a Mercy on him. After the Mercy hit him but don't don't touch him, just stand there. After it says So and So Wins You'll get the Choose Your Destiny screen! Now start all over again! Easy Computer: When the CPU fighter is just stading there, walk towards them 3/4 steps. Then walk away about 3/4 steps. Do this over and over and you will win if your life is higher than the CPU's. If you jump or throw a projectile they will fight back! You can tell that it's not working when the keep on walking towards you when you walk toward them. Great to use on the Endurance Matches. Sheeva Stomp: Sheeva's stomp wont hit Scorpion doing his spear move. Don't Freeze Noob!: If Noob Saibot touches Sub-Zero's ice clone the game resets. End Game endurance glitches: When I beat the game and picked the Noob Saibot/Ermac endurance. I didn't beat Noob Saibot, because I was talking to a friend. Then when we started the next game every person on the tower was incorrect. We saw Kano on the tower and faught Kitana, we even faught Classic Sub-Zero and others. Does Scorp really finish them?: When scorp does his Goto Hell Fatality on Smoke, and possibly the other robots, parts of them are still on the screen when it goes black. **************************************************************************** ** VERSION INFO ** **************************************************************************** -=[ Ultimate MK3 v1.0 ]=- * Jade, Kitana, Milenna, Scorpion, Reptile, Ermac, Classic Sub, Rain, Noob Saibot, Human Smoke are all added * Hell, The Desert, The Cavern, and The Waterfront added * 4 Player 2 on 2 Mode and 8 Player Tournament Mode Added * Jump in Combo starters added * Can uppercut through Scorpion's Lair to The Cavern * Bank stage removed * 2nd Master Added * Endurance Rounds Added in Master and 2nd Master * Pit Fatal in Hell added (and all it's secrets to go along with) * Classic Sub-Zero's Fats added -=[ Ultimate MK3 v1.2 ]=- * CPU Pattern Fixed * Bugs fixed * More Kombat Kodes ************************************ 50 *********************************** **************************************************************************** ** NEWS SECTION ** **************************************************************************** * OTHER ULTIMATE TIDBITS! - After starting a new 1 player game.
