N.O.V.A. 3 is developed by Gameloft, a company that likes to jump in on the trends of pop culture with games like Ice Age Adventure, Spider-man Unlimited and Captain America The Winter Soldier The Official Game. Jumping on the trends isn’t a bad thing, however, especially when you do it well.

Hardcore Droid - What is N.O.V.A 3: Freedom Edition?
It’s a showcase. An exhibition. Nay, a love letter to the modern console FPS brought to us by the mobile developers at Gameloft. It attempts, with much success, to provide a true FPS experience on mobile devices with as few compromises as possible. To show that our perceptions of the limitations of a particular medium are in no way indicative of the type of shooter experience it can provide. More to the point, N.O.V.A. 3 is a sci-fi game based around famed N.O.V.A. commander Kal Wardin making a trip to the long dormant planet of Earth, to answer a distress call and eventually unravel a plot much larger than himself, but not quite as large as the considerable inventory of weapons available to him to stop the looming threat behind it all.

I've played the first one on vita.. good game but bad port.. Seen some gameplay on the second game looks good. I wish they would take there time an port it over to the vita if they have plans on bringing over.! This game kind of reminds me of you know what. Could be a hit on vita if done right.
First and second were good but seems like this one will be great.
