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

Velgor: Well, when you consider it sold over 2000 copies... yeah, not so bad.

Artki: (it was a joke about how long it was taking to sell out)
Even so compare that to some other attractions and it did well. 200 Magrunners took at least 2 hours.

Asking again: what will be the next true showstopper?
Aaaaaand I'm spent.

So I bought:

Neverwinter Night 2: Complete
Deus Ex: GOTY Edition
Syberia
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic
Sacred Gold
Don't Starve
Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator
Ultima Underworld 1 & 2
Anvil of Dawn
Jade Empire SE

And I got Megabyte Punch for free...


Nice!!!

acarlson412: AGH Don't Starve. I want this so bad but can't afford to buy it. :( If anyone is feeling mighty generous, I'd be eternally grateful. :P Just kidding, I won't hold my breath.

kklsid: You could check your PM, if you feel like it.
Thanks a lot man. I owe you one ;)
I can guess that I *may have* missed out on snaggin NWN 2 and Theif 1-2

Johnmourby: 1200 copies of one of the slowest selling games on the sale? See you later guys. Much later.

Devoidless: You must not of been here for Keane.
How could you not have been here for Keane?
Don't Starve. Mine, finally! And as a bonus I also hear the Nightmare on Elm Street theme in background in my head!
Mmh how many sanity points I have left?

Omerta or Shadowman. Those took quite a long time the last round.
My money is on Shadowkeane.

jackster79: Hmmm.... for as many people that I could have sworn I saw wanted it, Don't Starve does not seem to be going as quickly as I would have thought.

Incidentally enough, it was the first game for this promo that I bought, almost 3 days go. Wow... long promo for what was supposed to be 24 hours....
I secretly think this blew up on them, and they decided to see how far could they go after the cash started rolling in! ;D

Bovrillor: DON'T STAAAAARVE

Uzur9: I can guess that I *may have* missed out on snaggin NWN 2 and Theif 1-2
NWN2 is gone, it was a few games ago.
avatar
Briareos262: It's suppose to be an awesome old school point an click adventure similar to that umm freebie gog game whose name is escaping me. Anywho I have no mouth and must scream is by famed sci fi writer harlan ellison. I've yet to play it even tho I've been wanting to play it when I got it a month or so ago.
avatar
nijuu: of Stainless Steel Rats fame? Hmmmm
No, you're thinking of Harry Harrison.
avatar
Uzur9: I can guess that I *may have* missed out on snaggin NWN 2 and Theif 1-2
NWN 2 yes but Thief 1 and 2 still have yet to appear for their final go around
Does anybody know how long this Promo will go?

peanutsticks: GOG ever gonna poop out some Linux versions? I want to buy this just like I wanted to buy Rogue Legacy but...
GOG doesn't support Linux. They don't even expect supporting it in a near future.
