The ultimate guide for MK3 PSX players! The Sony Playstation is the first and only 32 bit or higher system to get MK3. You will most likely not see MK3 on Sega Saturn, Panasonic 3DO, Atari Jaguar or any other "NEXT GENERATION" system. Sony has an exclusive contract to keep MK3 away from the other 32 bit and higher systems until 3/96. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- This FAQ was written by Patrick McCarron for the arcade version of MK3 I altered it to fit the PSX version of MK3. I went through at least 20 FAQs of the arcade version of MK3 and this one was absolutely amazing! It had all the questions you can ask about MK3 answered. I didn't want to start from scratch so I converted this one to fit the PSX. Here's some other FAQ's that Patrick McCarron writes: -The Mortal Kombat 3 FAQ -The Mortal Kombat 3 Mini FAQ -The Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 FAQ -Windows Mortal Kombat 3 IFAQ (Interactive FAQ) -The Mortal Kombat 3 PC FAQ -The Mortal Kombat 3 SNES FAQ Co-Written by Mike Bullard -The Mortal Kombat 3 Genesis FAQ Co-Written by Steven Wika ====Looking for the following things==== -Boss Codes -More Kombat Kodes -Tournament Mode Kode? Well enough of this crap......... SHALL WE BEGIN??? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- -- GENERAL DEFINITIONS -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Run 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 combinations of joystick 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. A successful Kombo can damage your opponent heavily, 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 inflicted upon your opponent. Fatality: A fatality is a finishing Move that kills your opponent. A fatality can be many different things. Mercy: A mercy is a move that can only be done in Round 3. 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: Hold RUN, D,D, Rel. then your opponent regains consciousness. It works best if you stay out of close range. 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. 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 that makes you do something nice for your opponent. You can't use block in the Winning Round. Shao Kahn says "Friendship, Friendship" then he Says "Again?" The word friendship is spelled out in balloons that are blown up and get smaller while Shao Kahn talks. Pit 3 Fatality: The person gets cut up in giant blades and body parts go everywhere in a spray of blood. Subway Fatality: The person gets knocked up into the ceiling and then they fall down in the background tracks and then he/she gets hit by an oncoming train. Shao Kahn's Tower: You uppercut him/her and then he/she falls down through all the floors of the tower. When he/she reaches the bottom he/she lands in spikes at the bottom just like in the original pit in MK1. 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. The first 3 icons are controlled by Player one while the other 3 are controlled by Player 2. Ultimate Kombat Kodes: Ultimate Kombat Kodes or UKKs are Kodes you put in the make secret characters PLAYABLE!! But if you get it wrong Shao Kahn Makes fun of you in many ways. To get the UKK screen up keep circling the control pad when the game is in attract mode. And it's only 6 digits! Attract Mode: This is the Mode the game is in when you are not playing. During attract mode you see the games story and the character bios. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- -- FAQ KEY -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- *** Moves Key *** F - Forward D - Down B - Back U - Up Hold ** (***) - Hold Button Rel. ** - Release Button HP - High Punch- Square [] HK - High Kick- Triangle /\ BL - Block- L1/R1 LP - Low Punch- Eks X LK - Low Kick- Circle O RUN - Run L2/R2 **+** - Push ** and ** at the same time 360 - 360 Degrees Forward to Forward, or F,D,B,U,F So this is what the PSX controller looks like (sort of): ====RUN==== ====RUN==== ====BLOCK==== =====BLOCK==== { U } (HP) { B } { F } (LP) (HK) { D } (LK) [SELECT] [START> *** Move Requirements *** Move Requirements are listed in () after a move.

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: Sony did a good thing and made Motaro harder then he was in the arcade. In the arcade he was very easy to beat but now he is a challenge. 1) Constantly do cross-over kicks followed by punishing Kombos. This way, while effective, is slightly more difficult than the next. 2) When he jumps at you, jump kick him, when he lands attack with a combo. Boss # 2: Shao Kahn Shao Khan was the boss from MKII. He is the emporer of the outworld. He is harder then he was in MKII but if you find a weakness stick to it! Strategy to Beat: 1) Rapid Projectiles 2) Attack him while he is Taunting you. Best attacks while he is doing this are Sub-Zero's freeze, Kabal's Spin, Smoke's Spear, Cyrax's Net up close ground kombo. 3) When he starts talking uppercut him then run after him start a combo. If he falls attack with the same combo and keep it up. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- -- KOMBAT KODES -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- You can change the icons on the bottom of the VS screen with button presses of HP, HK, and LK. If you hold UP and hit a button it goes though the kodes backwards so I show U+X 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 put them in a certain combination you get a Kombat Kode.

While neither Sony nor Williams will confirm this, sources behind the scenes have hinted that Scorpion, Kitana, Jade and Reptile may make it to the PlayStation...perhaps with other fighters in town...as an upgrade card that will retail for $15-$20. It's a nice alternative to Capcom's approach of re-marketing the same game over and over (witness all the different versions of SF2 that hit home) for the same high price. (From NUKE http://www.nuke.com) - A rumor is that all the home versions of MK3 will have Shao Kahn and Motaro playable through an Ultimate Kombat Kode. This may be true! Put your MK3 CD in a CD player and turn on track 29. You hear Shao Khan say " I Win. " FINISH HIM!!........ ROLL THE CREDITS!! If I missed something, put something incorrectly, you have anything I don't or just a comment . E-mail it to me, you will get credit.
