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

Revenile: I can't help but feel 1500 is a bit overkill on this.
It's sold ~1100 in a few minutes :P it's fine. I expected it to disappear in less than 60 seconds though.

Shendue: Really? Wow, that's cool. Kudos to you, fantastic level design.

somethingstrange: Thanks! My first game was Thief, but I liked SS2 more.
Thanks for helping create two of the best games ever.
Hah, true, my slightly tired mind saw it slow for about 20 seconds, glad to see I was totally wrong.

Khalaq: Home from work just in time to see SS2 pop up for 80% off.

Wait a second... There are still copies left and some of you don't own this game? What the heck is wrong with you people? BUY IT, NOW.

Ungunbu: i have no money - sob
Did you not read what I wrote? Send me your email address, now, before I give the copy to someone else.
Neverwinter Nights sold 1k in about a minute the first round and 1k Theme hospitals also flew.
Is SS2 any good?

=P lol

Faeja_Vu: With how much raving I see about this, I guess I'll have to add it to my wishlist. Question for it, would it be recommended to play the first one before this, or does it not matter?
It doesn't. There's some connections, but basically SS2 it's a stand-alone.

BillyMaysFan59: Well, at least a new game showed up...does anyone know if The Incredible Machine Mega Pack and/or Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 already showed up on this sale?
avatar
CorranHorn: Only Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, RCT 1 is such an addictive game=).
LOL yes and those who hate RCT3's high price had a chance to get it for $4 or $5 xD
400 to go ^^ ...still wating for nwn2 freebie.....

No need. First one is much tougher to play due to its age. Get any of the mods that improve this game and you should be good to go. Focus on story and environment. The audio is still really great. I think this was done with Unreal 1 so you just have to live with the blocky AI but that's a minor gripe for such a great game.
And if I had more money this would be bought already XD

That is a good question. I hope we will see SS1 on GOG sometime.
SO TEMPTED> But already have it on steam :P
I've got a code for SS2 in exchange for Nexus: Jupiter Incident.

zarquon: System Shock is flying. As it should. Anyone who doesn't have this needs to get it now. Period.
At that price, it´s almost an obscenity not to.
