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

silentp263: Does anyone know if Diablo 3 for console is worth getting compared to PC?
It's not worth getting. PERIOD

It has an offline mode and no auction house. That alone makes it better.

After Blizzard forcing online only for the PC one and saying recently they will never remove it, I'd only buy the game used so they don't get any direct money from me.
Maybe now's a good time to try out one of the other games I bought :P
I sincerely hope next will be a game some people actually want to buy :)

Well, considering the skill hotbar was made for consoles...
Call me silly but I like these little Wadjet Eye games... played them all already though.

Cmooooon Planescape :)

It doesn't have the fun killing auction houses and does have a great local multiplayer. I'd prefer it over the PC version. But it's not that great a game in general.

CarrionCrow: You know what's striking me as really great about GOG right now?
No DLC.
By comparison, I went on Steam and took a look at Borderlands 2. They have DLC for everything except getting your ass hair dyed a different color, and it's absolutely infuriating for someone that wants to feel like they have a "complete" version of the game. You don't have to worry about that crap here.
Seriously? You can't compare GOG with Steam with a game that GOG doesn't even have like Borderlands 2. For the whole DLC thing you should complain to the developers of the game, not Steam. I bet that if GOG had Borderlands 2 they would have DLC as well.
