    N.O.V.A. 2 is big, brash and mighty impressive. If you're looking for the ultimate First Person Shooter on iOS you don't need to look any further. It's a game that should be in every serious gamer's collection.

    An impressive, fun single player and full online multiplayer make this unmissable. [Mar 2011, p.94]

    It's easy to knock Gameloft for blatantly ripping off other games, but you have to be impressed with the level of quality in which they do it. And while N.O.V.A. borrows more than a few ideas from the Halo series, it also shows that iOS is more than capable of delivering a full console experience that can easily stand on its own.

    ut those controls are what I     keep coming back to. Frankly, I really detest playing an iOS game that has virtual buttons. Gameloft has done what it can, but this is far from an ideal platform for first person shooters.ut those controls are what I keep coming back to.
