In what context? For example are you publishing an online game and using advertising for revenue or are you using them to get noticed?

Hi Seamus,

Impressions has an overall pretty good rep. He is cautious, which is good for his type of company. Impressions is about the last man standing of the consolidator field. Short maybe Studio 2.

Aldo is very careful about the clients he takes on and from I know of him, also very careful about managing his overhead and cost structures. I would expect Impressions to survive most any shifts in game distribution, possibly including a total collapse of the distribution tier where Impressions might migrate to direct-to-retail is he had to.

A consolidator that seems fiscally stable and responsible. About the absolute best you can hope for there. The rest, you will have to decide if the cost of doing business with them is worth the entry intro the distribution market they are likely able to provide. The answer to that question really is different for every company.
