Gameloft Launches N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance for iPhone 4
N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance Captilizes on the Technological Evolutions Introduced by the iPhone 4
PARIS, July 22, 2010-- Gameloft(R), a leading international publisher and developer
of downloadable video games, is launching N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard
Alliance for iPhone 4, the first game that takes advantage of all the latest
innovations in technology on the iPhone 4.
The use of the Retina display allows for excellent screen
resolution in N.O.V.A Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance. The game is also the
first FPS (First Person Shooter) on the App Store to incorporate gyroscope
based controls.
A Major Innovation for the FPS Genre
With the gyroscopic technology, N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard
Alliance innovates using a new control mode never seen before even on PC and
consoles. This new technology offers a brand-new and much more intuitive
gaming experience. Players can rotate their camera as though they were moving
their own head.
Total Immersion in the Game
The improved controls allow for more realistic interactions.
The gyroscope plunges players in a virtual reality, where they can view the
entire 3D environment of the game around them in real time by fully rotating
their iPhone 4.
Eye-Popping Graphics
The Retina display integrated in the iPhone 4 improves the
depth of the game, thanks to enhanced graphics that lets players see four
times better resolution and finer details than before, all while maintaining
the same screen size.
N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance is the first Gameloft
game to incorporate gyroscope controls. But by the end of summer, Gameloft
will have 20 titles that are optimized for the iPhone 4; games like Tom
Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction(TM) and Brothers In Arms(R) 2 which have
already received iPhone 4 updates, and Asphalt 5 which will incorporate
gyroscope controls.
