It does look like crysis 2 but wow, does it look good or what!
Plus a May release which is even better news.
Unfortunately, I had planned on giving up on Gameloft altogether because of certain recent practices and their lack of interest in fixing bugs in a certain premium game but now after seeing these brief clips of in game play, I'm gonna have to instabuy.
It simply looks like a massive improvement on NOVA 2, which was brilliant graphically when launched, and even on MC3 which, despite many major bugs and hacker problems, is still the top fps on the app store.

Pretty cool video. We've all been waiting for NOVA 3 for long enough, heh.

Wait, it releases in May?! EXCELLENT!

I really like the environment that was shown. I love fighting in big cities (in games).

I agree, the city street fighting element looks very cool and bodes very well for the multiplayer maps.
The last NOVA looked great but was just a bit dull and repetitive. This one looks like a cross between MC3 and crysis 2 which should be awesome.
And I know some people will criticise the cloning of a popular console game but until a version of Crysis or Halo comes out on iOS, what choice do we have that will satisfy our fps needs? (other than MC3, which I play a lot but is criticised as a clone of another game that is not available on the device I play the most, an iPad)
Can't carry a console around in my pocket to get my Halo fix so this looks like it will do very nicely, thank you very much.

Edit: one thing I noticed is that the city looks very contemporary rather than futuristic which is interesting.

Sure they're kinda ripping off others but as long as those companies won't make mobile games and as long as gameloft makes them GOOD games then I don't care. This NOVA3 looks better than MC3 to me and I thought Nova2 was more fun the MC, maybe just because I enjoy Halo esque games more than the Call of Duty ones.

I dunno I felt that the first NOVA was a little remiscent of crysis but mainly just because of the way the hands looked.

I'm just happy to see the trailer and excited to see it's coming out this next month.
