Ultimate MK3 Appears
With no fanfare, Ultimate MK3 has popped up on the Live Arcade.
by Erik Brudvig
October 20, 2006 - Without any sort of announcement from Microsoft, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 has been put up for download on the Xbox Live Arcade. It comes at an odd time, this being Friday, as Xbox Live Arcade games are usually released on Wednesdays. Still, the game is currently available for purchase at the cost of 800 Microsoft Points ($10 USD).

The download comes in at 43.62 MB and features multiplayer gaming for 2-4 players. Hurry and download it so that you can begin playing with Stryker, the worst character to ever appear in a videogame. We kid…sort of.

Update: Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 is no longer up on the Live Arcade. Looks like it was a mistake. We'll have more on Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 as the situation becomes clearer.

Yea possibly but oh well its gone 4 now.

gnagnagna.. I've got it.. played a few rounds just a minute ago (posted this in another thread).
It disconnects me from live when I start the game and it looks like I can play the offline part without restrictions. Could select all characters and stuff.

It's sweet

That's annoying, but most of the crew here has the same 'problem' I think

TRIGGER M4N · October 21st, 2006, 18:43

Lol, this thread has 22 guests. I also have the UMK3 demo. No restrictions from character select.

Thugboy4 · October 21st, 2006, 18:52

Look We Got Us A Superstar On The Boards!

TRIGGER M4N · October 21st, 2006, 19:54

Wow, it still is an amazing game, Reptile is now my fave, coz I remember his cobo's very well. I'm struggling remembering tha FATALITY's or any FINISH HIM move though.

Cage · October 21st, 2006, 19:58

First thing I remembered about the game was the 8 hit combo sheeva can pull off. Just press X X A A Y Y B B

(or was it X X A A B B Y Y

)
Still works like a charm though

TRIGGER M4N · October 21st, 2006, 21:21

So, you can go online with it now, and I bought the full game. I'm getting raped online, but it's the best Arcade game at the min. Easy to unlock achievements!
