Deals so good, you won't want to fall asleep.
You remember back when you used to walk into a store, browse the shelves, pick out a game, and then buy it--all in the actual real world? We don't know about you, but most of us at GOG.com have had our limbs atrophy to small vestigial nubbins since all of our shopping happens online these days. Of course, one thing that sometimes happens in real world stores with real world goods--particularly when they have a good sale--is that they run out of stock. Usually that means that the deal was so good that they couldn't keep up with demand.

Well, in the digital realm, this is usually pretty rare. How do you run out of stock on digital games, short of entropy devouring the universe? Well, we have gotten 101 games that will be on sale on the front page of GOG.com, but the discounts are so high at the moment that we can't just sell an unlimited number of copies of these games: we are only able to sell a few at these discounts--up to 80% off--and once they're gone, they're gone.

So what games will be on sale in our Insomnia promo? Bestselling classics and new games alike. There will also occasionally be some free games in super limited numbers (like, 20 or 30 copies)--if you're fast enough on the trigger finger to pick 'em up, that is. The deal will run from now until we're out of "stock" of games for the sale, and games may show up more than once. So it's time to bathe in a tub of coffee*, dip some espresso**, snort an energy drink***, or do whatever else it takes to stay up so you don't miss out on the best deals on fantastic games on GOG.com since summer.
*This is probably not a good idea
**This is definitely not a good idea
***This is totally safe, though****
****NO IT'S NOT WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CRAZY PERSON

XEternalDreamX: I know this isn't the same author but were the Drizzt series of books great? (if you read it)
I've read the first 3 (Homeland, Exile and Sojourn) and they're quite good, but they're not the best books I've ever read.

Ydrisselle: D3 is a co-op game. It's built just like an MMO, so it's much harder to make a working pirate server for the game (if I know well, there isn't a working one yet).
Yeah, like an MMO... *shakes his head* in D2 you could have 16 players, I think I never saw more than 5 at a time, but if you have many more then there's just too much to show on the screen at once.

Also like an MMO, the crappy drop system plus the auction house where you can pay real money to get in game items. Takes away the fun of things. And their 'want everyone to have the same experience', but popular mods would show what people really want to experience. PoE is much better than D3 from what I can see.

AngryAlien: Random stuff: I am watching Lord of the Rings 3 right now and as always I can´t stop wondering... why the hell did they not use those giant eagles right from the start to fly into Mordor?

nijuu: Yes. Altho some say too formula and simplistic. Im a fan and have most of the books
I might buy the entire series, plus the Neverwinter books with him in it. I like the portions I read but I am iffy about buying it because I can't seem to find the list so I don't miss any books including the main series.
i dont get you all....

when a game stays on for hours, you get upset, making jokes....

when a game dissapears faster than flash, you get angry....

what DO YOU WANT ?????????????????????????

petitmal: Beg to disagree. D3 is meant to please. But is to eager in it.
avatar
Ydrisselle: Actually D3 is the first Diablo game which I could play longer than one hour...
So in D1, you might have not even seen THE Butcher? O_o Why would anyone DO that?

For all the games on sale to magically show up in my account without having to pay for them.

Sure. The author R.A. Salvatore has the same gift as Robert E. Howard with his Conan. He can write and describe pictures and actions very good.

But he is not considered good author, because he writes in a form that is called pulp fiction.

Free games.

AngryAlien: Another random movie related question...

You are not allowed a Moquai after midnight or ot starts to spawn Gremlins. But when exactly does "after midnight" end? Technically 11.59 pm and 59 seconds is STILL "after midnight". No wonder those critters are so rare - they all starve to death.
This was brought up in the second movie and hand waved away. Don't worry about it too much and buy 54 copies of RotT
avatar
CorranHorn: The movies are good but imho can´t compare to the book, Tolkien explains things that never are explained in the movies and Jackson did some changes (like replacing a major character in the book).
Agreed. I´ve read the book way before the movies were made and one should definitely read it. Although I am glad they left Tom Bombadil out of the movies, that fella just makes no sense. Which is rare for Tolkien.

You can buy the first 3 Drizzt books in a bundle to see if you like it enough to get the rest.
