    N.O.V.A. Elite Review

    By

    Slowly but surely developers are starting to test the Facebook waters with so-called hardcore games. And it doesn't get much more hardcore than a multiplayer only first person shooter. N.O.V.A. Elite is a spin-off of Gameloft's popular iOS, sci-fi shooter series, and it works surprisingly well as a Facebook game.

    Up until now, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six games have been noticeably absent from the App Store. Honestly, that's a little surprising since the franchise has had games made for just about every platform. Now, however, Gameloft (which has a well-deserved reputation for quality shooters) has released Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard for the iPhone. Like a lot of Gameloft titles, the game offers a pretty solid play experience… though it does contain a few issues that detract from the overall.

    Few companies have been able to pull off multiplayer gameplay on the iPhone as well as Gameloft. Few companies are also as perfectly poised to get involved in Tom Clancy's popular Ubisoft squad shooter series as Gameloft (both Ubi and Gameloft are owned by the Guillemot brothers). When you look at all the pieces, it just makes sense: Gameloft is the only developer who could make Rainbow Six on the iPhone work.

    A moment of silence for the Volterites. They never had a chance, you see. Well, they did, for a little while, when they were busy stomping all humanity into the ground as the two groups warred across the stars. But then a distress call went out and Kal Wardin, mankind's one-person army, decided to answer it. The resulting one-man war was frantic, bloody, and a pretty ugly series of defeats for the aliens. Oh, and it also served as the story for N.O.V.A. 2, a delightful new FPS from Gameloft.

    When it comes to first person shooter games, few names are as big as Battlefield: Bad Company. EA knows this well, which is why they've decided to shrink it down to pocket size for the iPhone. But has Battlefield: Bad Company 2 survived the transition to mobile? Or is this just another case of App Store cannon fodder?

    Of all the characters from the Star Wars universe that you could play as in a video game, chances are the lowly Stormtroopers aren't particularly high on your list. Sure they're iconic and all, but mostly for being dimwitted blaster fodder. But in Star Wars Academy, a competitive first person shooter from ngmoco, that's all you get to play as. And while the game features a great RPG-style upgrade system and lots of famous Star Wars locations, it's also fraught with technical issues and a severe lack of options.

    The hotly anticipated sequel to last year's N.O.V.A. has remained relatively shrouded in mystery since its announcement back in October. Gameloft, the game's publisher and developer, has just dropped some exciting new details about their upcoming first-person shooter, revealing the game's story and some concept art that should give you an idea of the characters you'll be tangling with.

    Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus Review

    By

    Gameloft's first-person shooters have been, so far, fairly blatant clones of popular console franchises like Halo and Modern Warfare. This is by no means a bad thing, since the games have actually been pretty good. Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus continues this trend, giving iPhone gamers a great FPS for the system that not only features a highly-polished single-player campaign, but also includes a phenomenal online mode.
