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

Most of you probably already knows this but CD Project is making a new game, a game based on the old pen and paper game Cyberpunk 2077. There is a teaser on Youtube that made me want this game even more =).

ghostgate2001: Heh. Those were actually commands in some ancient version of BASIC I vaguely remember using. TRON and TROFF. Trace On, Trace Off. Made it print all the line-numbers on-screen as it executed them, for bug-hunting. (Damn, I'm old) Now I'm wondering which came first, TRON the movie or TRON the programming command...?
Im right there with ya...used these on the TRaSh-80 back in the day. :)

Well the two Shadow Man soundtracks seem to be fairly unique, the songs they do share seem to be different versions, the alternative soundtrack is longer (longer in length, and number of songs) and seems rougher, mix/mastering wise.

Edit: Yes, I bought this game because the soundtracks I heard in the trailers seemed interesting. The game still looks fairly "meh".

TriciaMcMillan: I second that!
Still can't believe I survived Keane. However, I will never be the same. : /

JohnnyDollar: I think GOG may have a closet sadist working for them...
That's a pretty scary thought. Next up: 1200 copies of JK2. *sobs quitely*

TRON the programming command. I learned a bit of BASIC as a kid, b/c we had a Sinclair, then the Texas Instrument TI 99. You bought a book if you wanted more than a few games, and you programmed them yourself ;)

It was the command. TRON the movie is actually named after the command to trace the program. When you used TRON it would print out the lines of code on the screen as it executed them so you could check what was going on for debugging. When you wanted it to stop you'd use the TROFF command. Ah, BASIC.

shadowknight2814: You haven't missed it! We're still stuck on Shadow Man, which is what came after DS.

By the way, what's up with copies sometimes returning to the stash? Does GOG reserve one for you for a moment while you enter payment details, or is it a guesstimate?

ALH: All the Keane trauma victims need to always remember that you can talk about this....don't shut it away, it will destroy you.Dark days ahead, we need to be there for each other.
I think GOG should give away part of the proceeds of this sale to The Keane Relief organization.
Damn it. 5 to retrieve, out of 65 remaining. Running numbers sucks sometimes.

Those were the good old days, when every computer came with BASIC built in, and a manual to show you how to program it. I miss the early 80s.

The TI-99 4/A was my first love! I had it wired up to a cassette recorder with a variable speed so we could tape the programs and store them (no disk drive back in those days). I think it was Compute magazine that had the games, no? Spent many hours reading and typing. Great memories. I used to make my own pac-man clones. :)
