The Ultimate Kombat Kodes are still in place and have in fact been expanded. From what we saw, the delay in ShangTsung's morphs, which have been bedeviling home players, is gone. While not 'arcade-perfect', UMK III is pretty darn close. Do you want to play Noob Saibot, the human Smoke, Ermac, Mileena, or the classic Sub-Zero? Does the idea of checking out some new moves for your favorite characters get your temperature rising? Well, how do you think we feel?

All of the characters and secrets from the arcade version of UMK III have been packed into the disc, so you can calm down now.

The kind folks from Williams Entertainment recently showed the staff of VideoGames the work-in-progress version of UMK III, and even at this early stage it looks much better than the flawed Saturn version of Mortal Kombat II. As the game is set on Earth the stages have a more realistic look to them which is ok, I guess, but again it is one thing that makes it less special than Mortal Kombat 2. I loved the stages that were in MK2 and the ones here are very different. Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 is an interesting looking game. It does though have much of what mattered and that is the returning characters such as Scorpion and Kitana along with more stages. The poor old Genesis just was not able to handle all that the arcade offered. Visually, the game has been downgraded quite a bit from the arcade. The story is actually the same as it was in the standard Mortal Kombat 3, but in all honesty, I see no reason for them to have changed it here. It is a pretty cool story and one that I do like. This means that the game is now set on Earth. This time around Shao Khan can use his dead wife Sindel to open up the portals to Earth Realm so he can take it by force. Just like in Mortal Kombat 2, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 once again fleshes out the lore of the MK universe.
