Owners of Android-based smartphones interested in enjoying on their devices mobile games from Gameloft, a globally popular publisher and designer of video games, can now benefit from a new feature the company announced officially as available for them, namely try before buy.

To be more precise, users are now offered the possibility to download a demo of each game the company has in store for Android phones, so as to give them a try before deciding whether they're worth purchasing or not.

Gameloft, a leading international publisher and developer of downloadable video games, is launching a special offer that allows you to experience the new HD games available for the latest generation of Android smartphones by trying before buying them,” the company announced.

At the same time, the company announced that users should be able to try out eleven titles from its portfolio, including a series of best-sellers such as: Real Football 2010, Asphalt 5, Assassin’s Creed, or Dungeon Hunter.

Other titles included in the list would be Gangstar: West Coast Hustle, Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X., Hero of Sparta, Let’s Golf!, Modern Combat: Sandstorm, N.O.V.A. Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance, UNO, along with the coming soon game of the blockbuster movie, James Cameron’s Avatar.

According to Gameloft, users interested in downloading one of these games on Android phones can do so by typing “gameloft” in the web browser on their devices, or throughout heading to the company's website here from their desktop PCs.

Gameloft's HD games are available on most of the latest handsets running under Google's Android operating system, including the HTC Incredible, Desire or EVO 4G, as well as Motorola's DROID and DROID X phones, or the Motorola MOTOROI, and others more.

One of the most interesting facts of this story is that, even if it has one title included in the Android Market, Gameloft still chose to distribute the rest of the titles via its own storefront, and not through Google's portal.

The game developer does not offer specific info on what determined it to act this way, but the guys over at Android And Me certainly do not approve with this.
