Gameloft Brings Halo-esque N.O.V.A. To iPhones

Publisher Gameloft is bringing Hal… err, N.O.V.A. to Apple’s iPhone, a sci-fi first-person shooter that we’re going to say is the developer’s best clone of a wildly successful game to date.

N.O.V.A. was shown for the first time today at Apple’s ā€œIt’s Only Rock And Rollā€ event, evoking thoughts of Halo familiarity from our liveblogging brothers at Gizmodo. It’s not an unsuccessful formula for Gameloft apparently, which published Modern Combat: Sandstorm and Gangster for the iPhone this year, which look a lot like iPhone ports of Call of Duty: Modern Combat and Grand Theft Auto, respectively.

Granted, it’s not like Gameloft is the only company pumping out iPhone lookalikes. It’s just taking advantage of a market that publishers of the aforementioned hits aren’t developing for. And, admittedly, we haven’t seen the game in action for ourselves.

But I’ll be you 100 Kotaku Points there’s a Chief Master in this game…
