In case you missed the news, Paradox Games has joined Impulse and the first titles are available on Impulse today! Hearts of Iron, Supreme Ruler 2020, and its expansion, Global Conflict are now available for download.
The rest of the Paradox catalog will be added soon!
Hearts of Iron
Global Conflict
Sweetness! It is about time you guys hooked up.
Now about that merger...
Ah, there's some sweet, sweet music, right there.
awesome. I enjoy paradox games a lot. I may have to look to see if I have any spare cash to pick up some more titles.
Great news here.
Question: will CD-keys be transferable between Gamersgate and Impulse?
Woo!
Well, I understand the reasoning, but I'll add that to my wishlist for Impulse. (I won't expect to get that one though)
Very cool!
Now you just need to convince Shrapnelgames to publish their catalogue via Impulse as well. I think many here would appreciate a downloadable version of Dominions 3, for example.
One by one, they all come to us
Your bases are belong to us!!!!
Good work guys keep it up.
Near miss.

Hehe..
Cool. Glad to hear that more companies are starting to sign on. Awesome work, Impulse guys!
if you guys have ideas for more companies, it's cool to tell us at Stardock about it, but you should also go to the forums of those companies and let them know about Impulse there too. I can't hurt. The more we spread the word, the better!
The problem isn't actually with Impulse. It fully supports it. It's just that the original publishers aren't allowing key sharing
There is a debate at the Shrapnelforums why Dom3 isn't available digitally. Impulse was one of the favourably received suggestions on the users ends. Though the other titles (Weird worlds would fit soooo perfectly) are also worth considering. The two winSP titles for example.
I don't know if that thread is followed by anyone official, though.
I'd suggest Thirdwire www.thirdwire.com - great flight simulations, but I am not sure it fits their business model (very small company). It would be great though to give their "Wings over ..." series a push.
I gave up trying to find a copy (retail) of Europa Universalis III: Complete here in Toronto.
Amazon.ca doesn't list it either, so I was all set to order from amazon.com but now I may hold off a bit and see if Impulse will carry this title or at least purchase and download EU III + it's IN & NA expansions, if and when they become available.
All hail Paradox and SD! Two companies well known for good support. May their unholy marriage last atleast over the weekend.
Instead of waiting for the game to be digitally distributed on Impulse, why not buy it from paradox via it's gamersgate?
Because if he waits until it comes to Impulse (assuming it does), then it would only further encourage Paradox to put all their games up on Impulse.
No doubt. Sadly I have more than a dozen titles on GG. All the PI titles and a couple independent ones. I prefer Impulse to GG however. The update system is awkward in my opinion. Hmmm... I just may have to rebuy some titles. So the CD keys wont transfer either? I special ordered the Rome CE pack for the desktop bust as well as got the DD version.
Personally speaking if PI merged (shutdown) GG with Impulse I think it would be a big huge win on both sides and a substantial advantage for gamers.
The only way that will happen is if Stardock buys Paradox, which I wish would happen.
Paradox wants to keep their independence though.
How about trying to get Kohan: Ahriman's Gift out on Impulse? Given that Timegate and Stardock are fairly close- they should be willing to consider it.
No doubt. SD wants its too. Oh well, wishful thinking is what it is... A very close alliance will serve the both of them well as I said.
i don't have any problem with GG myself. i just purchased KB-L from them this past weekend as they had it on sale for $19.99. very fun game btw.
