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

Kaitu: Here's what should be left for sale in Round Three (not including whatever is left as freebies):

pbnjoe: System Shock is gone I'm pretty sure, I think I saw "Last Chance" one the freebie that shot by my screen.
Aww please don't say that D:
I bet that Heroes of Might and Magic 3 will appear at 3 am (my GMT) when I'll be sleeping...
Eador will probably be on there for the rest of the weekend...

Unfortunate, as I had high hopes for that game.

Devoidless: Who can tell me the difference between a wizard and a sorcerer? We all ought to know this.
IMO: sorcerer is a more elemental mage, wizard is more arcane mage :)

Kaitu: Here's what should be left for sale in Round Three (not including whatever is left as freebies):
[...]
58. Thunderscape $2.39
[...]
105. Thunderscape $2.39
So two more shots at Thunderscape? (I've only actually been remembering to look at the GOG page maybe once every few hours -- little chance I actually catch it. Maybe there's a firefox plugin that will sound an alarm when a keyword shows up...)
This frigging sale seems to be custom-built to trigger every compulsive tendency possible.
Aye. The ones listed with "Last Chance" that I can remember seeing are System Shock 2, Myst: Masterpiece, Eador (hurr durr), The... Something of Midnight or another?, JK2... There were others, my mind is blanking over the ice cream I just ate.

Edit.: Oh, and Miasmata. Fml.

FledglingPidgeon: Wizard is taught, Sorcerer has innate ability?
avatar
Devoidless: There we go, I'm counting that. Kudos!

I also would of accepted "Sorcerers are born with the ability, wizards must be taught". Same things, different wording.

Kudos!
In Sword of truth, Wizards are born with the magic but need to train to be able to use it.

Oh shit, here come the Eador reviews!

Edit: " 'Eador, Masters of the Broken World' is perhaps the greatest game of our generation. An incredible masterpiece, sometimes referred to as 'The Citizen Kane of Fantasy Strategy Games', I guarantee this game will change you life."

Seems legit

This is what Eador is doing to us.
