The good, the bad and the ugly all in one game.
Mortal Kombat 3 is a game that really fits The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.
Let's start with the good.
MK3 has some cool new features like the Run button. It's useful if you want to get away from your opponent quickly or to charge at them. A cool idea, but the computer takes advantage of it. Ever you try to atack the computer, it will counter you move, make you fall, and that charge at you and do a 5 or 6 hit combo before you can get up.
Another cool thing they've done is put in multi level battle grounds. In some stages, you can uppercut your opponent into another stage, and then you continue fighting there.
The last thing on the good list is the big choice of charectars. There are 14 to choose from, plus one hidden one.
Now for the bad.
THIS GAME IS TOO HARD!!!
Like I said before, the computer charges at you way too much, making it almost impossible to avoid them. And this is from playing the first battle on the novice tower on very easy. I can't imagine the game getting any harder.
A couple of other things, the sound is quite muffled and the new charectars are boring. Robots have no place in a game of hand to hand combat.
In the ugly, we have the graphics. They're okay, but they don't look as good as they could have. The charectars are awfuly fuzy, but the backgrounds look good.
MK3 is a decent fighter, but after playing Mortal Kombat 2 and MK3 on Midway Arcade Tresures 2, the SNES version is a major disapointment.
