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

Wow, why do I always have to get on the PC when these slow movers are up? I've only gotten to see like 10 different games for this entire sale. Bummer.

TheRock: It's Jack Keane 2 all over again, lets complain about it for a few more days and try and force a meme.
Keane yea.
I went to sleep when Don't Starve went on, what did I miss?

Lotus69: Retro City is good, made by a guy I used to work with. Give it a shot, especially if you like video game humor :)

MGShogun: Is it very difficult game? I read quite few reviews that said that it's pretty difficult.
I didn't find it that difficult. It's easy to get your wanted level down to nothing in it, and there's usually always a pop machine near by in the open world to fill up your health. With all the mini games in it, it can be as challenging as you want.

It's easier than GTA, IMO.

sbenrap: I went to sleep when Don't Starve went on, what did I miss?
Shadowman and free Aquanox 2.

For the Jack Keane thing, I meant stop repeating it.

Statistically speaking, you're most likely to hit one of these at any given time.

Round one of the sale on Wednesday went pretty fast, though, because the numbers were lower and it was people's first chance at the sale prices.

Qwertyman: The problem that I personally have with a game like Retro City Rampage is that, while I do enjoy some of the throwback type games that indie developers have been making, RCR is just too much of a throwback. If I want to play something that reminds me that much of the 80's, I'd literally rather just play emulated console games that I was fond of from my childhood. One of my favorites was actually another game with the same abbreviation - River City Ransom.

That's just my personal opinion. It might be a decent game but like I said, if I want to go that far back in graphics, then I'd rather just play some of my old favorites.

Bonshea: Ahahaa! For a while I actually assumed Retro City Rampage was the spiritual successor to the amazing River City Ransom, till' I finally looked up on it.
When I first saw people talking about this throwback game called Retro City Rampage, I thought the same thing lol. One can always dream...
Going to bed ... balls out for the turd games!

Tomorrow and next fora couple more good things.

Sylenall: I ACTUALLY won a game. Whoah. Aquanox 2, hmmm, not something I was gonna buy, but it doesn't look half-bad.
Even if a game went to sale for a penny and I don't like it, I wouldn't touch it...

But free... oh darn... game on.
