Mortal Kombat Hits Xbox Live Arcade  by James W at 11:20

XBox
Another classic beat-em-up makes its way on to Xbox Live Arcade, as promised earlier in the year. The announcement states a 1 AM PDT release which I believe is 9 AM BST this morning, however I'm yet to see it available to download on my Xbox. Lets hope it makes an appearance later today and in the mean time click Full Story for a run down on what Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 has to offer.

As usual it's a free trial and should you want to unlock the full game its 800 Microsoft Points, or £6.80 / €9.30.

- Players can choose from 22 fighters with different abilities. You also have secret methods to allow playing additional fighters.
- Classic Fatalities, Brutalities, Friendships and Babalities! Finish Him!
- 2 on 2 kombat mode
- Tons of environments to fight in including: Scorpion's Lair, Jade's Desert, Kahn's Kave, River Kombat, Noob's Dorfen and more.
- Each character, has their own good or evil motives and a common goal. THE DESTRUCTION OF SHAO KAHN!
- A variety of multiplayer modes including the new Challenger Versus Mode which allows you and 3 other friends to battle it out in a "winner-stays-on" style tournament.
- Detailed Leaderboards: Captures the player's win and losses both for all time and for the current week.
- Challenger Versus Mode: A new multiplayer mode which allows up to 4 players to play in a "winner-stays-on" style tournament. Statistics are recorded to allow for maximum bragging rights!
- 12 achievements: The UMK3 achievements offer rewards for both the novice and expert players.

It's out now...

I really can't get into it. The animations and fight system is just to freaking shite for me to get into. Also, playing it on a 360 controller doesn't make it any more fun either.

It's pretty rubbish, though on the upside the Tony Hawk's demo is impressive.
