Mortal Kombat 3

MORTAL KOMBAT 3, in my opinion, is one of the best arcade games I have ever played. Even though I haven't owned my Nintendo Wii for very long, I enjoy this game very much. In addition, even though I've never beaten the game, I still find this game very appealing, even though I've never owned the game. The only place I've played it is at the arcade. However, when and if this game is available to download on the Nintendo Wii, I'm definitely going to download it. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that the people at Sega Genesis know how to keep video game fanatics entertained. Now, in conclusion, if you're a video game fanatic, this is definitely one you'll want to play and own.

Mortal Kombat 3 also changed the history of fighting video games for many reasons...

It generated an easy to perform combo system that became a favorite for fans and best of all, it was addictive. You could perform 8 button combo attacks combined with your special powers.

Also, the story is very interesting not to say creepy and powerful. It deals with earth's invasion by Shao Khan. This time, Rayden who "cannot interfere anymore" created a new earth army that brings the most interesting new characters in the series plus the beloved ones like Sub-Zero, Sonya (returns), Liu Kang, Kung-Lao, Kabal, and Stryker. Now it's up to them to defeat Kahn's minions, Motaro (the new Shotokan leader) and in the end, Kahn himself.

The graphics are excellent! The characters look bigger, shaped, and have cool clothing. The sound is just wonderful, maybe not as impressive and haunting as in part II but still really good with modern tracks and the always creepy and haunting "The Pit III" tune.

The fatalities are a letdown in terms of originality and brutality. Some of them are even laughable like Kabal's banshee scream, Kang's arcade, or "giant Jax". Some of them are spectacular like Jax performing a la T-100, the Sektor Kompaktor, Cyrax's helicopter, Kung Lao's hat cutting, Kano's skeleton rip, and Sub-Zero's frozen destruction, to name some.

The game play is addictive, even more than in part II. You just don't get tired of the combo system and best of all, because the story and music catches your attention and senses.

A classic fighting video game. One of the best ones of history.

Forget that you ever saw the horrible Mortal Kombat movies and stick to the impressions that the video games created if you want to take this superb series seriously. MK-3 was the last of sprite based games of its series but the action remained fluid and dynamic as ever. The animation was great and the sketches in the manual were something that every MK fan should preserve. The length of the game itself and the number of opponents depends on the skill or difficulty level that you select. Problem is that even on normal difficulty, one could breeze through most opponents by merely throwing upper cuts and only during the very end did it get difficult.

Mortal Kombat 3 great game.one of the greatest in 90s.one of defining games in 90s.one of my favorite games of all time without a doubt.movie was good too.my favorite fighter was definitely Cyrax and i was huge fan of Montaro.levels were great.it's definitely one of most popular games in 90s without a question.Doom's,Mortal Kombat Trilogy,Prince Of Persia trilogy and Warcraft's trilogy these games are immortal without a doubt.old dos games were great. Historik was good too.i loved almost all games in 90s keen Quake all.Quake is still good game to me.nowadays computer are not so great than 90s games i think after Warcraft III.i know a lot of guys who love Carmageddon and GTA.

A lot of people dislike "Mortal Kombat 3"; I don't know why, and am not sure I never will. It's not like the early Midway games had a storyline that was fleshed out through the game-play; the later ones would of course. But "Mortal Kombat 3" does have its flaws, none of which detract from the gratuitous bloodshed and realistic martial arts combat. Really, the only thing that mars the whole experience is the ridiculous combo system and end bosses Motaro and Shao Kahn. By the end of the day, ko-kreators Ed Boon and John Tobias can stand proud: "Mortal Kombat 3" isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Third time is a charm.
