Impulse Adds Ubisoft Titles: Assassin's Creed, Heroes of Might and Magic V and Far Cry 2 on Sale

June 16, 2009 4:30 PM

Stardock-run digital distribution platform Impulse has begun adding PC titles from publisher Ubisoft to its catalog, with more slated to arrive in the "summer" timeframe. Assassin's Creed and Far Cry 2--both from Ubisoft Montreal--and Nival's Heroes of Might and Magic V - Tribes of the East mark the three Ubisoft titles offered thus far. Impulse is currently offering 10% off each game, making them $17.99 a piece.

"As our Impulse platform continues to gain favor among PC gaming fans, we're continuously adding the best titles the industry has to offer," said Stardock CEO Brad Wardell. "We look forward to working with Ubisoft on future releases."

        That was a fun-ass game. I'm going to re-install it soon.

        I tried it and I didn't like it at all, so I don't see it as a loss.

        Far Cry 2 is one of those games that don't open up for the first couple of hours. But opinions as to how enjoyable it is even after that vary wildly. I like it a LOT.

        I couldnt get into it. Not really a bad game, just kind of annoying. It was a large/pretty world though. I wish it wasn't as much "work" to play, because i enjoyed walking around doing nothing.

        I gave it a very honest chance(played about 8 hours) but if anything the gameplay mechanics were even more annoying than they were when I first played it. The insta-respawn, the travelingl to the complete opposite side of the map every mission, the constant nagging malaria, etc.
