Well folks the long awaited released for Gameloft‘s much anticipated game, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard, is finally over. Before I go on though, one noticeable thing about Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard is that it appears Gameloft has already gotten rid of their free + IAP (DLC) model, however, I am not entirely sure if that is the case. But anyways, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard features:

Well folks, looks like a hands-on video of Gameloft’s much anticipated action game, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard, has surfaced thanks to French iPhone blog iPhon.fr. While this is nothing completely new, it is nice to see what it looks like running on an iPhone 4. We know for sure that there will be online mutltiplayer which will support up to 10 players in each match, however, you can do a 3 player co-op for the campaign as well I believe. All in all, the game looks really good and should easily get 5 star review all across the board.

Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard is set to be released on March 17th.

Following up in Gameloft‘s monthly podcast, they have released their 13th podcast which gives us a huge insight to their upcoming action game, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard. While an insight to their upcoming game isn’t all that there is in the podcast, there is also a contest to win a brand new Audi car, and some other things were talked about as well. Along with the Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard‘s gameplay revealed, there is also some brief gameplay footage as well, which also gives us a further glimpse into the game. So far the game appears it’s coming along very well and will be even better than the last. While that’s only a bit of the podcast, you can see the full podcast below for yourself.

If you’re a die hard fan of the Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six series or Gameloft‘s Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell Conviction, I have some very exciting news for you. Just recently, Gameloft released a debut trailer for their upcoming game, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Shadow Vanguard, for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Currently, there’s no word if there will be a iPad specific version, however, judging by Gameloft’s rack record, it’s safe to say that one will eventually be released.

For the first time on iPhone and iPod touch, enjoy a new FPS experience that allows you leading a team of elite soldiers!
A global terrorist organization threatens the world balance. Only one team can prevent this: The Rainbow Unit!

These colors never run.

As of now, not much other information has been released, however, PocketFullOfApps will keep you updated as time progresses.

Driver: This is rumored to be an enhanced port of the PlayStation 1 classic. So expect a more linear, mission based experience than that of the sandbox world of Gangstar: West Coast Hustle, with a focus on in-car action and cinematic cop chases rather than the go anywhere, do anything style of more recent titles. That said, Driver was (and is) an amazing game, and is responsible for spawning a generation of 3D crime-sims such as Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto series, so when it screeches onto on iPhone/iPod Touch should be a 100 mile an hour trip down memory worth taking.

N.O.V.A: Basically HALO in your pocket, this sci-fi first-person shooter is gunning for top spot on the AppStore. And given that it will offer both a singleplayer story mode and online multiplayer options (deathmatch and team) it definitely has the potential to kill the competition (e.g. Eliminate, Call of Duty: Zombies). Gameloft previously (almost) perfected touchscreen FPS controls with Modern Combat: Sandstorm, so I’m expecting a flawless gameplay experience from Nova. Playing as a Master Chief lookalike whose futuristic weaponry includes: a pistol, assault rifle, shotgun, sniper rifle and plasma cannon, enemies will most likely be HALO-style aliens, with the action taking place in an intergalactic setting.

Skater Nation: A fully 3D skate ’em up, that will feature: A nonlinear city environment, a choice of 8 Skaters and a feature that allows the player to upload tricks and replays to YouTube. This game recalls console smash hits like the Tony Hawk series and SKATE, and looks impressive even at this early stage. A combination of accelerometer and touch controls should work well, and Gameloft has already proven with Gangstar that an amazing open world is possible on the platform. Loading times have cut down, so you’ll be able to travel seamlessly from one area to the next.

Avatar: The Game: Based on the forthcoming sci-fi film, Avatar is a third person shooter that looks similar to Gameloft’s Terminator Salvation game. The storyline will act as a prequel to the movie, while gameplay seems to consist of Tomb Raider style exploration and explosive shoot outs with the space marines who are plundering this lush alien planet.

Tom Clancy’s HAWX: Take to the skies in a fighter jet and expect ferocious dog-fights with enemies. Hopefully Online multiplayer will be in place by the game’s release. Tom Clancy HAWX is rumored to be out in December.

All of these games are rumored to be out sometime in December.
