Even with its warts Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 still holds up relatively well over the past decade. All the spurting blood, fatalities, and gruesome violence - admittedly tame to today's standards - are in here. The speed and gameplay is pretty near arcade perfect, and only the truly keen MK eyes are going to see the tweaks employed to get the game working on the handheld. The arcade conversion, pretty much an emulation with a few development compromises, is pulled off extremely well on the Nintendo DS. Both games were converted over to the Nintendo DS by Other Ocean, the same team that worked on the Xbox Live Arcade version of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3.
