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

DubConqueror: I went back a few pages in the topic to see what I've missed and even the rate of posting dropped, is Keaning so to speak. If I go back 10 pages I go back 3 hours. 10 pages used to be produced in less than a few minutes in the hectic times. The good news is: many people are finally enjoying a much deserved somnia.
Everyone who stayed up so far bought a copy of Retro City Rampage and are playing it feverishly waiting for the next game to come along. ;oP

Actually, I'm playing the tail end of Still Life and just pokin about in the forums on ALT-TAB breaks... closest thing I have to RCR here is GTA1 and GTA2 freebie giveaways from Rockstar. :)

zlep: OH NO! The thread is Keaning!! It's Keaning, people! Bail out now; bail out! Before we're trapped in the expanding event horizon of slowed time...
No! Stand firm people! We are the last bastion to keep this thread alive! 1000 Pages and 20.000 Posts are just around the corner.
Stand firm people of Middle Earth!
I think RCR was put on purpose with the insane 700 copies limit to give everyone a chance to get some shuteye for at least a good 4-5+ hours.

DubConqueror: Well, it surely wan't the fault of the freebie?

The sale will be officialy dead when even a freebie slows to a crawl.
They could put up a freebie giveaway of 5000 copies of "Goat Petting Simulator" and people would snap them all up in probably less than a minute.

(Yes, I know what you're thinking... WTF is Goat Petting Simulator... I KNOW EH! :) Believe it or not - it actually exists!)

I'm not leaving until I get my items or fall out of my chair trying. Kinda hoping some others hang around as well, otherwise it's gonna be a lot of pages of me talking to myself. Probably make for some awkward crap for others to eventually read.

saberwolfxm: I think I'm done with this sale. Between Jack Keane and now Retro city and all the other Indie games I'm just puckerd out from having to wait hours on end for one game to clear so I might have a chance at getting one I do want. It was a good promo that broke up the same ol' same ol' but not having a timer on each individual promo kind of ruins it. Hopefully they'll have a regular Christmas sale without all this annoyance. As for this one I'm done GoG.

I kinda forgot the exact title. I think some Age of Wonders game and something else that I don't have yet in my library.

Anyways that's a good list to stay up for, those were really good deals ^_^
