Considering that many of the games they rip off of are nowhere to be found on iOS devices (with some exceptions; ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIII,'' for one, has been released on the iOS and Android), Gameloft is in fact one of the few companies that is making the iPod a competitive gaming device. They also freely admit to copying other games, defending themselves by pointing out [[http://www.destructoid.com/gameloft-game-industry-has-one-new-idea-a-year-191678.phtml the lack of originality in the rest of the game industry.]] They are sometimes given the copyright of several Ubisoft games, which they will recycle old models with. Such as the "No. 3 Machinegun", which starred in 3 series.Aalthough given that the company itself was established by one of the Guillemot brothers, it wouldn't be surprising for Gameloft to come up with a portable remake of a popular Ubisoft title, albeit usually with an altered storyline and gameplay - for example, the mobile ''SplinterCell'' games differed siginificantly from their home console and PC counterparts, although the basic premise remains the same.

Thus you have '''Gameloft S.A.''', a developer that of portable titles that are playable and graphically polished but not quite perfect reproductions of titles such as ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'', ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'', ''VideoGame/{{Burnout}}'', ''VideoGame/{{Diablo}}'', and many others. They are an offshoot of French megadeveloper Creator/{{Ubisoft}} (the two companies' founders are brothers), and thus are also responsible for creating portable versions of Ubisoft's franchises, such as ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed'' and ''VideoGame/{{Rayman 2}}''. Some of their games are even licensed titles in their own right. Their ''VideoGame/MarioKart'' clone, for example, stars the cast of the ''{{Shrek}}'' movies, while their copy of the ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamAsylum'' series is a tie-in for ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises''. They've also partnered with Hasbro to make ''Franchise/LittlestPetShop'' and ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' games.

This formula has made Gameloft one of the most successful mobile developers, but the message Gameloft's success sends makes them one of the most controversial. To console and PC developers, it says that gamers want mobile versions of all these games, and if they don't provide them, someone else will. To other mobile developers, it says that you can be successful simply by [[FollowTheLeader copying someone else's idea]] and doing a half-decent job of it. The actual quality of their games is similarly mixed, characterized by high production values for IOSGames but weak voice acting and story and slightly outdated gameplay mechanics.

They are now moving into downloadable console titles, publishing games like ''Dungeon Hunter Alliance'' and ''Modern Combat'' for the [=PlayStation=] 3, as well as Let's Golf 3D for the Nintendo3DS.
