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

Chevette: This.... this is the magnitude of Suffering that the Keaning brought about.

shadowknight2814: After the sale is over... how will we get by, in a post-Kean world? One day at a time... One day at a time. Years from now, after we've had years of group therapy and crying to help with our suffering, this will be remembered as one of the greatest tragedies of all time, along with World War I and II, and the day Star Trek: Voyager got renewed for a second season. People will ask each other "Where were you on Jack Kean day?" I know my answer... I was here, in the trenches, with you.
*nods solemnly with a faraway look in my eye*
I can't believe that instead of what I should have done (sleeping) I've spent hours watching the Don't Starve's bar to reach zero. Just because I want Thief 1.

I would've napped if the bar wouldn't go down so fast at first.
There is a bug, as in "insect", inside of my screen... It's so small, it looks like a dead pixel drifting around...

Why, God? Why?

Devoidless: We who were the few brave souls will never forget that day.

legitster: So distraught o'er the frozen sales of JK2, I took to watching Insidious.........INSIDIOUS I SAY!!!!
Frakking Darth Maul and bad acting, not to mention a turd of a story, but C'MON!! DARTH MAUL!!! *rips hair out* *cries remembering the pain*........ T_T
Star Wars for me will always be the first three movies and it that order, the new ones just felt out of place. I do like the books, The X-Wing series by Stackpole and Allston are great but few can compete with the man who started it all, Timothy Zahn. Would have loved to see movies based on his first trilogy=).

patrickjarvi: Seeing other games at 80% off it's hard to pull the trigger on Don't Starve when it's only 66% off. Makes me want to wait until it shows up in a Humble Bundle or have a better discount.
It will be a while until a Klei Entertainment bundle is released considering that Klei Entertainment is working on Incognita right now.

CarrionCrow: I imagine there'll be quite a bit of repeating that this is a first-time experimental exercise and that they couldn't anticipate such dramatic lulls in product flow.

gscotti: And that's actually true, too - but GOG should have been nimble enough to jump in and do some corrective action when things hit a snag (Keaning) - or, you know, just be smart and anticipate this sort of thing could happen. Just throwing your arms up is really not OK.
LOL. Is "Keaning" a word now? I can see myself using it a lot.

"Drat, my work is keaning until the darn printer is fixed"
"My relationship with Sophia? It's keaning because she claims I spend too much time in internet forums and too little with her"
"Arkham Origins is keaning on my PS3 until they release a freaking patch"
Don't Starve: The Fire Within?

WillOfD: I think Don't Starve just defeated Keane's record. :(
No, it's not. It may be a long one, but with much more copies...

Nesoo: Did I see that right... there were 1200 copies of Don't Starve?? Dare I ask how long this one has been going?
Not as long as JK2 - that set the record.. Eador came close...
You all keep summoning it. Im gonna laugh my lungs off if the Keaneator is back, to punish you all for your jokes :P
