The Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), currently being held in Los Angeles this week, is a show where Video Game companies come to show off their upcoming titles and garner excitement for their future games. This isn’t limited to just the big home consoles games either, Gameloft arrived with a number of iOS titles to show off including Let’s Golf! 3, 9mm, Block Breaker 3 Unlimited and Silent Ops which are being demoed on the show floor on the iPhone. And they also have iPad 2s loaded with March of Heroes, Green Farm and BackStab ready for lucky attendees to see before they are released to the public. Gameloft also recently announced that they are working on a The Adventures of Tintin game which is based on Steven Spielberg’s upcoming movie featuring the title character from Hergé’s worldly popular comic series. While this game is scheduled to release in October in conjunction with the film, it is unfortunately not being demoed at E3.
Sadly Gameloft didn’t include any screenshots, but if you are attending E3, definitely stop by Gameloft’s booth and check out these games. For the rest of us, you’ll just have to settle for the descriptions below (sent to us by Gameloft) and the trailers that we were able to dig up on YouTube.
