Hello again Impulsers! Another week is down and it is time to highlight the news and game releases from this past week. We talked about the opening of the pre-orders for Medal of Honor a week or so ago, but we have updated news this week that if you pre-order the Limited Edition, you will get access to the Battlefield 3 beta in the future. As a huge fan of the Battlefield series myself, I’m definitely jumping on this.
Speaking of pre-orders, Victoria II from Paradox Interactive is set for release soon and you can grab it off Impulse with bonus content of the official Victoria II Soundtrack. To kick off that release, we have Victoria Complete on sale for 50% off until August 13th. This bundle includes Victoria: An Empire Under the Sun and Victoria: Revolutions.
Keep informed about Impulse by checking out ourwww.impulsedriven.net blogs, following @stardock and @impulsedriven on Twitter, and joining our pages on Facebook!

Gaming Nexus had the opportunity to sit down with Stardock’s Brad Wardell to talk about the upcoming release of Elemental: War of Magic. The deep amount of character customization feels like something out of a big fantasy RPG, instead of a strategy game. Can you explain how character building influences the rest of the game? Well in most strategy games it’s about your kingdom or your empire or your civilization, but Elemental is about you. The first question you’r...

Part of that comes from the addition of both Fences and MyColors from Stardock!
