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

Amsterdamned: I don't understand the hate for Eador. Only played a couple of hours, but I did like the game.

As for Jack Keane ... after the next screenshot I'm actually kinda sad curious about the game.

Eador: Masters Of The Broken World upset a lot of people by making them think it was a new game, but turning out to be a graphically updated remake of the first (rather good) Eador game, with the added bonus of lots and lots of catastrophic bugs. They've patched it since, but many people still pronounce that the prettier graphics just aren't worth it. Basically, it's hard to get good word-of-mouth when you've actively ticked off all the people most likely to promote your game.

As for Jack Keane, it's not a bad adventure game. But it was on sale for > $10 in the middle of a "genuine classics for dirt cheap" promo. Few games have the legs to sell well at that price when the competition is priced so low.

mantarrochen: I own NWM Complete here on GOG already so as far as this franchise is concerned Im only waiting for NWN 2. Of course I havent touched NWN yet (backlog !) so I only have faint recollection of my first and only playthrough of it. Hm, somehow I remember thinking that after I beat the game I thought that the game was a bit ... generic? Am I recalling correctly?

About NWN2 I remember that I once played the addon Mask of the Be..trayer(?) and stopped right when you get that extra "ghost energy" bar or something. Maybe I was tired but I felt a little overwhelmed at the moment and never got back to it.

Thruggsen: The original boxed campaign in NWN 1 is notoriously vanilla, indeed. The game was made as a system to support player made content, and the OC was sort of just a "look at the kind of stuff you guys can make". But it does put a new character through its paces and is worth a run through once in a while.

I haven't played much NWN2.
NWN2s campaign is supposedly very solid

Captain_Picard: Well, we got Jack'd again.

Someone will have the exact number...guess 2 hours?

It's not bad (better than NWN1's campaign, IMO), but the sequel (Mask of the Betrayer) is stellar.
Why does it have to have so many copies :(

Yes, I recall I had a good time playing through the NWN 2 campaign. Now Im wondering: was it there that my magically adept party member lady did ice storm everything in the later stages? :D

Because the people of GOG.com are extrem learning resistant.
