UMK3 on the MK:A KE is a terrible port because A. no button config B. you cannot save the hiddens (aka you must unlock them everytime, cant save even with a memory card) & C. some properties are weird. Its just not something to pay any extra for or even use, especially when you can play a version as close to a cab as it gets via Mame
And for the QUADRUPLE post…
UMK3 IS coming back to XBLA. Not a matter of if, but a matter of when.
Oh good shit, maybe they will patch it too…
Tim S. for best Quad Post Of The YEAR!!! :lol:
Alright folks UMK3 it is.
I guess if I wanna use all the characters in the MK universe, I best play the balanced version of MKA…on the Wii. 
MKA on the Wii is arguably worse with it’s manual wakeup feature. Imagine your opponent being able to randomly fall down at any given moment you attack and just launch you for a fairly unscaled juggle. Lol…
Who cares, though…MKA is a shitty game period.
I like that feature and it can be baited.
And that combined with the removal of ALL the BS from the previous versions of MKA = the game isn’t that bad.
LOL, at least it’s better than MK2. :razz:
no way man. As outdated as MK2 is, its still more of a chess battle, a la SF WW/HF/ST.
its my fave MK for nostalgia but i cant stand playing it anymore. So yes, i am retired from MK2 lol
I wouldnt count on it, but weres to hoping.
Besides, you shouldnt worry if its getting patching. You need to be rocking the p2p!!
BTW, i want to publicly thank you for getting the gall to make this thread. Most people who know shit around here know me for UMK3 (sadly lol) so i wanted and hinted at someone else doing this. Thank you.
We are probably getting a second cab, and maybe for the summer we can move them to the warehouse and have some free for alls! We can literally roll them over to it on a hand truck.
Also, the PS2 port of UMK3 is not exactly terrible, it is playable but the frame skip almost simulates netplay at times, and there are just simply dropped frame images, where sprites completely disappear and others don’t. Bizzare.
As for MKT guys, the Greatest Hits PSX version is fine to play as a for fun tournament if you ban bosses, and most likely ban Noob Saibot, possibly Rain. The biggest flaw for MKT is screen area vs sprite size. It causes some issues with juggling on certain combos, but nothing to complain about. If you want, you can even run it on EPSXE at 53FPS to simulate UMK3’s frame rate, and then you’re golden. Even in this case, Rain would not necessarily be a bannable character.
Also Ghaleon, where dem vids!?
That day is the return of me playing UMK3
I shall start reading.
orly???
:razz: Yeah RLY!!! :razz:
Watching now
Also, I know wrong thread, but hanzo you think you could link me those Sabrewulf/Fulgore KI2 matches? All of a sudden I feel like playing that game…
ya we are moving one machine to the warehouse space i have across the street ill give keys to you guys you can set it all up there, 24 hour place have as many people as you want anytime you wanna play , just coordinate it with shock he will be the grand master keymaster 
Someone say KI2 match vids? Let me see too. Anyone actually play UMK3 DS? Whenever I log on, I see alot of South Americans still play it.
Anyone know the specs I need to play UMK3 flawlessly on MAME with the HQ3x image enhancement filter on? Buying a new PC soon. I’ll have it hooked up to my HDTV so I can’t have it looking choppy. I’m not looking to spend a lot since it’ll mainly be used for MAME. Advice will be preeshed.
You won’t need the filter for UMK3… all you need is an HDMI output to your TV and use Mame PPK 119 or and it will work great. If you wanna play p2p online use Mame 32k 64.
How do you select Human Smoke on UMK3? Can’t seem to find him.
Select Robot Smoke and at the Vs. Screen hold, HP+HK+Bl+Run until he changes into H.Smoke in game.
Have you looked under cyborg smoke’s armor?
