This Is the Biggest and most informative FAQ out. If you don't like the size of this FAQ there is another FAQ I know have that just covers Moves, Kombos, Fatals, and Kombat Kodes. Here's some other FAQ's that I Write: -The Un Official Mortal Kombat 3 The Final Chapter FAQ -The Un Official Mortal Kombat 3 The Final Chapter Mini FAQ Page 4 ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒ STORY LINE ▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ "The Beginning" "Thousands of years ago an order of the wisest men from the Far East received visions of a dark realm. This realm came to be known as the OUTWORLD. It was a dark and Chaotic and ruled by a vicious emperor. The wise men knew that travel between the dark realm and Earth would someday be possible if the conditions were right. The conditions being the unbalancing of the furies - negative and positive forces which keep our unstable universe from collapsing onto itself. Knowing that the eminent Outworld invasion would prove too much for Earth, they appealed to the Elder Gods. It was for this reason the Elder Gods created the tournament of Mortal Kombat. Though this contest, we protect not only the safety of our realm, but the existence of our souls." "Evil Reborn" "For centuries Earth has used Mortal Kombat to defend itself against the Outworld's Emperor - Shao Kahn. But Kahn becomes frustrated by failed attempts at taking Earth though the tournament battle. He decides to enact a plan which began almost 10,000 years ago. It was during a time in which Kahn had a queen. Her name was Sindel and her premature death was devastating. Kahn's shadow priests, lead by sorcerer Shang Tsung, would make it so Sindel's spirit would someday be reborn - not on the OUTWORLD but on the Earth realm itself. This unholy act gives Shao Kahn the power to step though the dimensional gates and reclaim his queen, thus enabling him to finally seize Earth" Page 5 "Conquest" "Upon breaching the Portal into Earth, Shao Kahn strips the planet of all human life. He claims every soul as his own. Slowly the Earth begins into a part of the Outworld itself. But there are human souls which Shao Kahn cannot take. These souls belong to the warriors chosen to represent Earth in a new Mortal Kombat. The warriors are scattered through-out the planet and Kahn sends an army of fierce Outworld warriors to find and eliminate them. Some of the Earth's warriors survive the attacks, but most do not. The remaining few hold the chance at saving all of human kind." "Raiden's Creed" "Remember these words warriors." "You have been chosen to represent Earth in Mortal Kombat. Each of you poses a vital threat to Shao Kahn's occupation of Earth. Be warned; although your souls are protected against Shao Kahn's evil, your lives are not! I cannot interfere with these matters any longer. Your Earth is now governed by the gods of the Outworld." "These are the words of RAIDEN."

It's Down and to the Left of the Low Punch Button. You can run forward by holding run and towards. While you run the Run Meter under your life bar will go down, like the Turbo meter in NBA JAM, and then fill back up after you stop running. Special Moves: Special Moves are moves done with Joystick combinations of directions and button presses. Some of the Possible Buttons in Special Moves are High Kick, Low Kick, High Punch, Low Punch, and Run. Kombos: Kombos are combinations of kicks, punches, and or special moves. When you do a Kombo you can get allot of life off the person, but Kombos are limited to the Length of your Run Meter, because while you do a kombo the Run Meter goes down and limits the number of hits. After you finish a kombo the screen shows the # of hits and % of Damage to the guy. Fatality: A fatality is a Finishing Move that kills your opponent. A fatality can be many different things. There are at least three Fatalities per person and more will be in the Update in September. Mercy: A mercy is a move that can only be done if you loose one round to your opponent. A mercy gives your opponent a small amount of life back to your opponent for a last chance to live. To do a mercy you do this movement D,D,D,D,RN on Version 1.0 and then the guy comes back to life. Animality: An Animality is a Fatal move where your character turns into an animal and kills his/her victim. An animality must be done after a mercy, and each character has different movements for the animality. Page 7 Babality: A Babality is a Fatal move that turns your opponent into a Baby. In Order to do a Babality you must not use block in the winning round. The word Babality is spelled out in Building Block letters. Friendship: A Friendship is a Fatal move that makes you be friends with your opponent. I haven't seen a Friendship yet because I haven't played 2.0 yet, but you can't use block in the Winning Round. Nudalitys: Yes there is Nudalitys in MK3 version 1.0. We think it's only for Sub Zero. He strips the Female Character's Clothes off. I've seen it done on Sheeva only as of now. It might have been removed because of Parents observing the game via an overhead screen. Who then complained to the management, who then complained to Midway who might have had them removed. Don't Flame me if you don't belive me! This is true, but don't know all the movements. Pit 3 Fatality: The Pit 3 Fatality is the same for everyone, F,F,F,F, RN on Version 1.0. The person gets cut up in giant blades and body parts go everywhere in a spray of blood. Subway Fatality: The Subway Fatality is the same for everyone, F,F,F,F, RN on Version 1.0. The person gets knocked up into the ceiling and then they fall and then get hit by a oncoming train on the other tracks. Shao Kahn's Tower: Shao Kahn's Tower Fatality is done by F,F,F,F, RN on Version 1.0. The guy uppercuts you then you fall down through all the floors of the tower. When you reach the bottom you land in spikes like in The Pit 1. Kombat Kodes: Kombat Kodes or KKs are Kodes put in at the bottom of the 2 player VS screen. They can get you many different things, like hidden characters. Ultimate Kombat Kodes: Ultimate Kombat Kodes or UKKs are Kodes you put in after you die in a one player game and don't kontinue, it then asks you for a UKK and if you get it wrong Shao Kahn Makes fun of you in many ways. I have seen no one get this right yet so don't know what it does.

Soul Chamber: There is a large figure of an open monster mouth with greenish smoke in it. The smoke moves and you can see some faces peek out of it at times. There are some giant skull figures with mouths open. There are spikes on the edge of the walkway that look like teeth. There are also a few statues of the MK2 Sorcerers. You can get knocked through the ceiling here up to the Balcony. The Graveyard: A graveyard with a bunch of tombstones. Four of the stones have some interesting names like, Boon, Tobias, Beran, Michicich, Cage, etc. There are tombstones with the MK Dragon logo on top. Shao Kahn Tower: This is a bell tower, you can see out the windows to the city. And you see the moon in the background. It looks like you can knock them down through the tower.

Page 11 The Bank: Stone floor with symbols on it. Windows that view out to the city. Doesn't look to much like a bank because it has walls with windows and no indication of a bank. On each wall there are lights. You can be knocked though the ceiling here to the Rooftop stage. The Rooftop: Cityscape with Shao Kahn's tower in the very back with the portal circling the top. It appears that you can knock them down off the building to the bottom of the building. There is a big dragon logo on the floor in the center of the stage. The Balcony: Green glowing pit off in the background. Large statues of Motaro to the far right & left. The green glowing pit seems to lead down into the Mouth of the statue with the souls in it in Soul Chamber since this stage is above the Soul Chamber. The Bridge: Cityscape in the back. Newspapers and other litter blowing in the wind. Looks like the bottom of the Rooftop stage. Also looks like this stage is next to the street stage. The Temple: There is a large stained glass window in the back with the MK Dragon Logo in it. And the red cloth draped over the altar has a gold MK Dragon Logo on it. There are red candles in the foreground. The Street: This is where you fight after going through the Subway Ceiling. This stage has paper and liter blowing in the wind in the background. This stage appears to be at the bottom of the rooftop stage. There is a hole in the ground when you get smashed up to the street, but don't fight over it. You can see it while the screen is scrolling up after the uppercut.

The Centaurians are Half Human, Horse monsters with a steel tail. He can be very cheap with his teleporting and fireballs. Projectiles either disappear or bounce back at you so don't use them. Strategy to Beat: There's actually three simple ways to beat this guy. He's a real sucker for Kombos so even if you start one on him and he blocks the first few hits keep the combo going because he'll eventually let down his guard. 1) Constantly do cross-over kicks followed by punishing Kombos. This way, while effective is slightly more difficult than the next. 2) Trap the horse legged @#$! in the corner and keep the combo's rolling. After you do a combo to him he falls over. He stays in this fallen position for about 1 sec. enough time to start the combo over again. 3) Get his life lower than yours and then just stay a whole screen away Boss # 2: Shao Kahn Played by Brian Glynn. He is allot harder to defeat him than before. He is now taller and has many new moves. He doesn't taunt you as much, and use a big steel mallet to hit you with. He also has a fireball just like Kabal's in the way that it comes from his head. Strategy to Beat: 1) Low Fireballs from Kang or Purple Fireballs from Kabal over and over. Best if you start while he is stunned. 2) Attack him while he is Taunting you. Best attacks while he is doing this is Sub-Zero's freeze or Kabal's Spin.

He winner on round one gets to fight him for one round. And he is a Black Kano now not a Black Scorpion. We haven't seen any moves for him yet. *** Smoke *** Played by Sal Divita Smoke returns in this game. But now as a Robo Ninja. He is the Robot in the Center of the select screen that appears now and then. Rumor from a constant Player of MK3 is that Smoke was picked once when Smoke was pickable but was fixed soon after that. He said that Smoke has a fork spear. And that Smoke does still Smoke and is now a Purple double of Cyrax. *** Raiden *** Played by Carlos Pensina Raiden is featured as a KK icon and in the story line. And possibly a hidden Character. *** Galaga *** To get to the classic game Galaga you have to insert a Kombat Kode or have 100 battles. HP shoots the lasers. It says Fatality when you shoot a Ship. *** Erinmac *** Played by Mary Jane Kim, a Chicago Bulls Cheerleader She wears a red outfit, like Kitana's. She got her name from the bug named Ermac (ERrorMACro) in an old MK 1 or 2 version. Her name is not Ermac as many think, this person's name is Erinmac. We have yet to see her in the game yet, so she might have been pulled or saved for the update in Sept.

If you hold UP and hit a button it goes though the kodes backwards so I show U+# to show how many times to hit a button while holding UP. Player 1 selects the first three and Player 2 controls the next three. If you match them or put them in a certain combination to get a Kombat Kode. I was told my Mike (not Matt) Kruse to add how many times to hit the buttons for the KKs into the FAQ, so I did. The Ad Kodes: In the MK3 ads on TV in magazines and other places or things associated with MK, like the MK live tour will feature some. In all the Kodes they give out there is one icon they don't give you and that is a # with a circle around it. There is no easy way but to try every icon in it's place til it works. I thought I had a system going but didn't work to well. It worked sometimes but not always.

So now I'll answer some questions in this section but you must send them to me. Read the bottom of this section for info on sending me questions for the FAQ. Q. Who's back in the game from the old ones? A. Kano, Sonya, and Liu Kang are the ones returning from the first Mortal Kombat. Sub-Zero, Kung Lao, Jax, and Shang Tsung. Subbie is the Sub-zero from the second game not the first game. Q. Is Cyrax really Scorpion? A. No, Cyrax is all robot but Sektor is a cyborg. Sektor is formerly a ninja trained by the Lien Kien ninja clan and volunteered to become part Robot, that can be the old Sub-Zero or Scorpion even though Scorpion belonged to a different ninja clan. Q. Is that WAV file of Johnny Cages death real? A. Yes that WAV file is Real. I know that because when you put in a coin into Proto 1.0 or 2.0 you hear the gong from the begging of the WAV file, so that proves that the WAV is real. Also the gongs and part of the music are in the intro screen with Raiden's Creed. Q. What does the announcer like? A. It's the same voice from MK2, Shao Kahn. But it sounds better and more enhanced than the last game's. Q. What does the music sound like? A. The music has a deep spooky sound in some stages. The music in the Church has a spooky gothic feel to it. Also I thnink that the Subway has the best music. Q. What does the Arcade unit look like? A. The arcade unit has a picture of Shao Kahn and his queen Sindel standing on Shao Kahn's castle in the middle of a large abandoned city with the portal off in the distance over the city. On the top you just see the words MK 3 with the Dragon logo in the bottom arc of the 3. Bellow the joysticks you see the words Mortal Kombat 3, the only place on the whole machine that says Mortal Kombat 3. Page 32 Q. What are the joysticks set up like? A. There is the standard MK button layout with a new button, the RUN button. The run button is diagonally down from the LP. The 4 buttons RUN, LOW PUNCH, BLOCK, HIGH KICK are lined up perfectly. Q. What happens in the bottom of the Pit 3? A. When you do the movements your guy uppercuts your opponent and they fall down the side of the bridge. While falling it shows the side of the person while falling. When the hit bottom you see allot of turning blades on a wheels which cut you up into a lot of body parts and blood. Very Gruesome. Q. Is this one more realistic than MK2? I thought it was real stupid just having a pair of legs standing on its own...And do they keep bleeding after fatalities? A. MK3 is allot more realistic looking than MK2. Some Fatalities have Skeletons which are pure white not bloody. But other Fatalities have more realistic looking after effects like Sindel's Where she screams your skin off and the body has all the muscles exposed and bloody looking. They still have problems with explosion Fatalities where two heads fall, or having too many legs. Q. Are all the Pits and Mercys the Same? A. Yes, but in 1.0 only. In 2.0 everyone seems to have different movements for each Pit Fatal/Mercy. If you have any questions send them to me with the subject MK3 Question And if I like it I'll put it into the FAQ Page 33 ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒ KOOL STUFF ▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ * Random Select: U + Start the same as before * Difficulty can be chosen by picking one of three towers in a 1 player game, version 1.0 starts the picker at Master, 2.0 starts the picker at Novice. * You can be knocked through the ceiling in the Bank, Subway, and now the Soul Chamber. * Toasty returns again bigger and better looking and with a purple shirt * When you die against the computer it asks you for "The Ultimate Kombat Kode".

CIM: * Vidgames+ Forum Go: vidgames Look in the Coin-Ops File Libary, Or search for files with Keyword MK3 FTP: * ftp:mv.com directory pub/users/mk/ then go to the Pics or Sounds Lib * ftp:BRAWL.MINDLINK.NET WWW: * http://www.cs.ucl.ac.uk/students/zcacaes/mk/mk.html I'm making some WAV files and posting them on Mv.com and Critics Choice on AOL Page 34 ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒ BUGS SECTION ▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ * You can kill Motaro and Shao Kahn with just Low Fireballs from Liu Kang, or from Kabal's Fireballs. * Most Characters, especially Shao Kahn and Motaro, will just stand there not attacking you and if you are winning you can just stay there and win the round very easily as long as you don't attack or move towards the opponent. * In the street stage, or was it the Bridge, if you do a fatal that scrolls the screen to make the person the fatal is being preformed on to be in the center. The screen will get messed up showing more of the stage but all black with papers blowing around. Kind of Weird looking. * If you do a Kabal's Spin while Sektor is teleporting and Sektor is high up on the screen. You can't hit them with an uppercut because if you stand under them you wont be able to uppercut. Or Sektor can get stuck in the spin under the screen. You can try to sweep them but most times it wont work.

MK3 is not completely finished and needs little work. Like the names are inbetween the Life Meter and Run Meter. Looks pretty wierd. The Balcony is not dark and has no green pit in the background. But all the other stages I saw looked pretty good, the Bridge looked perfect but not as much paper. The characters are 1/4 inch shorter and the select screen was all in a different order, but no Smoke. **** BAD NEWS!!! **** * Revsion 2.0 is out and none of the Mercys, Pits, Subway, Tower, and everyone's Fatalitys no longer work. Thet were all changed and won't work at all. Revision 2.0 was accidently shipped to a friend of mine's arcade where he works. Nothing works but most bugs were fixed. So I'm already working on a FAQ for 2.0 only right now so until then I will use both versions in one. * The SNES and possibly U64 Home versions pictures are going to be put in Issue 73 of Nintendo Power. I hope they look good. * There will be a new ROM upgrade in September that will have 4-6 new characters. They are doing this to keep interest in the game, and they new Characters might be in the Ultra 64 Home version only. * Babalities, Friendships, and Animalitys are in the game. * 3D Rendered Backgrounds, and Other stuff here and there. * The word Fatality is bloody but blood doesn't hit the ground. * Different Blood for different types of Characters Green - Sheeva, Black - Robots, Red - Humans * When Players loose a round they fall straight backwards not realistically. * Smoke is pickable somehow. I Think that if you and your opponent pick your character when he's on the screen and doesn't go away and then do the random Kombatants KK and you just might change into him. Or if you do random while he's on the screen and you might get him.

This person will have to keep a list of people who want all the New FAQs and then send them out when I send it to him/her. This person will get credit in the FAQ for His/her services. Soon I'll begin writing a windows Shareware program that is an Interactive FAQ. It'll have pictures of all the players and Bosses.
