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

CarrionCrow: I hope you're right about the buying things they never wanted bit. Could use about 394 of those people right now.

Yeah, like they want a raging case of hemorrhoids.

It's positively Keane-tacular! *re-passes out from over done pun exertion*
Just goofed off in RCR for a few minutes... Wouldn't say it's the best game I've ever played but it is a funny GTA spoof with a million assorted references to other classic 8-bit games (Mario Bros, TMNT, etc.) thrown in. Wouldn't drop $14.99 on it but it is easily worth $3.74 and then some.
The Retro City Keaneage game card page has a cool funny trailer for the game if anyone hasn't seen it.

CarrionCrow: Last chance Startopia has come and gone, if people's lists are accurate.
Sorry about that.

Meriande: Startopia has gone yeah... Lightning speed at that...
Thanks for the idea. In fact, I admit I was a bit over excited in the first day and stay up to 3.30am to hunt for it. I just dont feel right or energized for me to do the same on the next days when things (Kaene :) ) are slow, I guess I will wait for Startopia next promo, year end sales should be soon, might be good for me to train myself to have delay gratification as well.

I would agree with that too. I played a little of it when I got it long ago, probably around for this same price.

I think deals like this one are to give the GOG bears a much deserved break.

Thank you very much mate for your kind gesture :)
It'd be nice if they could have 2 sales going at once.

GOG has 20 regular sales
Ah, Retro Keane Rampage, how nice of you to stall the sale while I was asleep. Did Nexus or I have no mouth already Last Chance?

wackyanne: Good night all! I think RCR is a good time to get some Zzzzzs, even if I miss something in the morning...

And for those who have trouble distinguishing bold or italic text in this forum:

Here are all the games that have been previously listed as in this sale. The games marked with an X have already gone through their "last chance". Each game gets 3 rounds, plus some get a freebie round which isn't counted in the three.

...
X System Shock 2 $1.99 /free
...
I missed System Shock 2 three times? Damn. When it was on sale for the second time I missed it thanks to my crappy Internet connection it didn't even show up for me.

So far I haven't had a chance to grab anything I'm interested in but thanks GOG for the great deals. It's good to see so many 80% off deals.
