DO NOT DOWNLOAD Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3... Seriously. This is probably one of the worst games I've ever spent my time on and it was WAY too incredibly hard for people who don't play fighting games very often.

Stay away if you don't want to waste your money!

Yeah my friend got it a couple weeks ago and he can't even pass the first fight on the easiest difficulty, and it's ironic because he's usually godly at games like those (soulcalibur,Mk,Street Fighter)

That's why I always trial XBLA games before buying. That and I usually suck at beat em ups - button mashing FTW! :)

Actually, the game is spot-on in terms of being true to the original. It's a great port, and it's a great fighting game if like the MK series... Just because you aren't good at a game, or don't like a game, doesn't mean the game is bad.

Woah, hold on. Are you telling me that my personal opinion of a game or genre does not represent some sort of universal canon that should be accepted by gamers world-wide?

The first couple of posts made me think I was in the twilight zone. I guess the game is very easy when you learn the combos for the fighters. The only tough part is fighting Shao Khan. Man he cheats!

You're probably just garbage at it and need to practice... The game is great, you just need to learn the combo's... It's one of the better xbla games out there.. And it's an excellent port of the original... plus, why didn't you download the trial version??

Just because a game is hard it doesn't mean it's bad. You should just practice some more and get better. Once you do the game can be very rewarding.

I know i'll get moderated but this must be THE most dumb topic i've seen in my whole life, let me guess, you got owned by Quintaro(that's the name right?) and got so pissed that you regreted using your 800 pts your mom bought for you, tthen you HAD to make a topic "warning" other gamers about the "crappynes" of a game that came out on XBLA 2.5 years ago, uh?great_rulo

No. I got pissed off because like most other gamers, they hate losing and are very competitive. Also, I wasted my own money(regrettably) on this p.o.s. game which, yes, I should have downloaded the trial first. Oh well, it happens to the best of us.

Seth Hardest Mode, COD4 getting all achievements, COD:WAW getting all achievements or beating mega man on the arcade. Its your pick all of these are much harder than UMK3.

Yes kiddo, WHATEVER you say, you're the best, you got owned in a game that needs only to mash the same combination of buttons over and over to win but yes, you're one of the best, definitely, the game is a p.o.s because you say so, you sound like an inmature 14 year old kid that cries every time he sees the "want to continue" screen(wich must happen to him very often), but hey, you're one of the best.

However, let me ask you this, if the game is garbage in a can, what does that make you if you suck at it? if you keep up with this way of thinking you'll just become one of those losers that blame others for his own mistakes, and ends up with a bottle of whiski in one hand and a cigarette in the other for the rest of his life, im sorry, but this is the truth.

Hands-down the best (if the game I've played the most counts as best) game on Live Arcade right now. It's a blast, some boss fights can be really challenging but like evry game you only get better with time and by looking at strategies online...

the AI in this game is broken, the character balancing is way off, and Noob Saibot isn't playable. even when it comes to those problems, UMK3's one of the best XBLA games ever and one of the best 2D fighters ever. plus, it's better than any of the 3D MK games IMO. you just gotta play the hell out of it. once you get the AI down, it's satisfying as heck to pull off long combos and ridiculous fatalities.
