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

ahab: Have you started seeing the sales with "last chance" come up again then?

"Saying that there is 200 left is a white lie, when there is going to be more, does not matter that it says elsewhere that this is not the case... coupled with the bar going down, this is a pressuring sales tactic. I despise those personally. "

No white lie you just didn't know or refused to accept how the sale works which is a set number of a game getting sold in multiple batches. That "X left" is for the batch not in total.
did you see my earlier reply? It do not matter.

It is till underhanded sales tactics which I personally do not like.

RandomJC: To people who have paid closer attention to me. Has Psychonauts been apart of the Insomnia sale? I could have sworn I saw it...of course I am probably sure I'm imagining all this right now.

Well, teach me to think I'd be ignored.
I was asking because the weekend Promo. Seems odd to me...but then again, Gog is the one who has had me watching their site for two days, and getting more money than usual in a week, so I guess they know what they're doing.

We got keaned again.
This sale was deviously brilliant. Whoever designed it is a marketing and sales genius, also probably evil and bent on world domination.

Gracias!
I think it's great that "keaning" is now a thing. They should definitely pick up the term in a third installment (which surely will come, just look at those amazin sales figures in this sale alone and don't forget the raving reviews).
