Ever since the release of iDracula and Minigore I've been craving a dual-stick shooter that has a "get from Point A to Point B" style of gameplay.

Gameloft has released the much anticipated N.O.V.A. (Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance) today and you may notice by looking at the screens below that it looks pretty darn close to that game we know as HALO.

I completed L4D2's campaign ye... more.
