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

Left, made dinner, ate dinner, watched television and caught up with the family.

Came back, still 13 copies of RotT left. Awesome.
Glaciers moved across the land during the ice age faster than this.
Just a couple more shots!

mortalkombat: question:

what way you use to buy from GOG ?
1.visa/mastercard
2.paypal
3.something else (specify if applicable)
Visa.

They cover potential damages from fraud which is why I permit myself to use a credit card online, though it would okay if they didn't as long as I could set the credit cap to something ridiculously low (like 50$).

On thing is certain: I wouldn't use a credit card that caps at over 200$ online without some sort of guarantee that my ass is covered.

For anyone who might be interested in Shadowman, I'd suggest checking out Supergreatfriend's Let's Play of that title on Youtube. It might be helpful in deciding whether or not it's something you want.

Russonc: Heck, maybe I'll just get both Shadowman and Soul Reaver. (I was trying to reply to helpful posts above, but they keep crashing...) Thanks for all the suggestions (and the mouse tip) Now just hoping my eyes are open when they come back around!
avatar
Bovrillor: Shadowman hasn't aged well.

At all.
For under $2, it's probably at least a few hours of entertainment.... (of course I have such a game back log now that It is probably more like a $2 donation :) )

vojtasass: Be prepared for Jack Keane.
Hope so.
Going to bed without regrets would be nice.

Madmurdock297: I've been using Visa...My bank has started declining payments because Ive had too many transactions in a short time...lol.

mkess: That are banks for you. They do not trust their customers. And it's too much work for them, too.
Indeed. I don't begrudge them too much. The one time they don't act is the one time my accounts been hacked.
avatar
Blooglspash: Has anyone kept track of how long this one has been on sale?
Yes, I believe the first reference is etched on clay tablets in cuneiform writing.
avatar
Xabyer_B: No, we just want to sleep without missing an offer. So come on! 100 copies of Jack keane 2.
Agreed, it is Jack Keane time in Europe!
We're at 11 Triad copies
avatar
Russonc: 30 more
Thank you for saying that. Wonder why my counter was stuck on 57. Didn't think we had to refresh every so often.
avatar
Kaitu: On the plus side for some of you, if the pattern holds same as rounds 1 & 2 then Septerra Core is next. LOVED that game!
avatar
Bovrillor: is this the pattern?

I've been watching like a hawk and it seemed to jump past 30 titles at once
There isn't a pattern, it's picking random titles from the 101 game list. I dropped a alphabetical list with prices in the /r/patientgamer thread for the sale.
START THE COUNTDOWN! 10.....
I'm guessing, based on the "last chance" on the counter, that we're entering the End Times.
