Gameloft, a big-name developer for Android and iOS, are putting a big portion of their games on sale for the new year. For the iPhone and iPad, they’re offering 21 titles, including Tom Clancy’s Rainbox Six: Shadow Vanguard, The Settlers (a personal favourite), Splinter Cell: Conviction, and lots of others. The Android Market sale is just kicking off today, and includes many of the same titles. Their latest premium Android game, Modern Combat 3, will be $0.99 for today only starting at 10 AM PST, so better hurry if you’re looking for a Call of Duty knock-off to play on the go. I got a chance to play it prior to launch, and it’s actually a ton of fun, especially on a tablet. It’s got full multiplayer capabilities, perks, unlocks, achievements – just about everything you’d expect from a big-boy first-person shooter.

Seeing as this is a New Years/Holidays promo, I’d hazard a guess that these sales will be wrapping up on January 1, which is this Sunday.  You can see all of Gameloft’s iOS titles over here, and everything on Android here.
