You have the floating purple Sindel who is one ultra-vicious lady (she's also my favourite character, and not just because she was played by Musetta Vander in the cinematic pile that was Mortal Kombat Annihilation).
Shang Tsung the infamous transforming sorcerer is back. And this always made it hurt some more when the infamous MK blood started to squirt. With their origins in motion-captured humans and not sprites, they possess a strange edge of nastiness and jerky 'realism' which I don't think any other fighting game ever captured. Male, female, good, bad, psychotically costumed, every race and creed. The most obvious appeal of Mortal Kombat for me (and I'm not even an ardent follower) has always been the great variety of characters you can play. supremacy? Her soul? It gets foggy at this point, but that doesn't matter because you know what this means for you: More ultraviolent martial arts combat. Now Shao Kahn's horde of bad dudes (including the man himself, and his bride) will punch it out for the umpteenth time with Earth's best warriors in a battle for. Mortal Kombat has always invested heavily in its grisly mythology, so the story of this particular episode deserves to be heard: Shao Kahn, the head honcho of evil in Mortal Kombat, has resurrected his demonic bride Sindel. There's just not enough more to it than what you see up front to hold your interest for very long, unless you're a Mortal Kombat maniac who'll gain eternal replayability and save infinite amounts of change by playing this at home with a friend, and disemboweling them over and over again. It mostly looks and feels like its 2D one-on-one fighting arcade counterpart, with the exception of the unsuitability of the Playstation controller for this genre (a standard complaint of mine.) But when 'competent' is the best word you can muster, the game is destined for blahdom. It was destined to complete the mediocre trinity of the first three games I would trade away (joining shockers Devil's Deception and AFL 99), but not before I gave it one final more serious bout of playing to see if there was really a soul in there.
This was also the second title I ever fired up on the console, so it's not surprising that it made me 'ooh' and 'ah' initially as arcadey blood splashed into my violence-lusting eyes, and I listened to the roars of 'FATALITY!' But the passing of time and the collection of further games first wounded and then dissolved the shock of the MK3 new, so that eventually the game became the least impressive title I had.
