Scroll down to see a picture of "Ultra Mortal Kombat 3"

Not sure what to make of the Ultra part. An intentional name change to reflect a subtly different COUGH-WAVENET-COUGH version? Or a spelling mistake because nobody outside of like 100 people care about UMK3...yet?

Ultra os probably short for ultimate, but where di the 'R' come from. Similar to mega, we all know it stands for super-awesome-cowabunga.

Neat-o

That would be cool if the 'Ultra' was intentional. I kinda like that as a title...though if they're gonna do that then it should be Mortal Kombat 3 Ultra.

My guess is it's a mistake.

Also, is it me or are the graphics enhanced? The background looks more detailed, but that may be the monitor it's playing through.

When something better than UMK3 comes out, I'll let you all know, because it still hasn't happened yet.

It's be something if they added characters to it on top of putting the wavenet version out.

Apparently a major theme of the conference was "LIVE Anywhere" - some new way of synchronizing your Live account with Xbox 360, Windows Vista, and mobile phones. With this setup, someone playing Halo 2 on Windows Vista could be in a match against Xbox 360 users.

So what I wanna know NOW is... will the Live Arcade go cross-platform? I would be so stoked if I could just upgrade windows, buy UMK3, keep my current keyboard-emulating joystick, and eliminate my need for a 360.

It wouldn't be MAME though. It would be a dedicated, official program for UMK3. That would be the beauty of it.
