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

gandalf.nho: You guys are still here? How many games remain in the last round?
2/3 of the games. been stuck on RCR god knows how long
I personally hope that GOG do not cave into those demanding to use steam keys,
GOG provides a service many would rile against and I for one am definitely grateful
to GOG for bringing back the classics.

gscotti: RCR has been running for over 7 hours, so 8.5 hours is totally within reach!

Would "steam keys" make RCR more desirable? It ties it to Steam, IMHO a less desirable alternative to no DRM. Or am I missing something? (not a Steam user)

CorranHorn: I´ve seen people asking to get GoG games to start using Steam, Steam has gone from a hated service to being the one most people prefers.
Wont happen
I wonder if the first Jack Keane will be the monday promo. That game was a clasic

Maybe in your neck of the woods, any a=holes who force DRM down my throat or to be connected to them to play get no money from me. Steam as in a pile of steaming scheisse.
Omerta, Lucius and Wargame are possible upcoming bumps on the road.

Ack!
If GOG link up with Steam I'll stop using GOG.
If you guys think this is bad, we could still get:

Cognition: An Jack Keane Thriller

Or...

Omerta: City of Keane

Or...

Leisure Suit Keane: Reloaded

If one of these games land after RCR, I think the sale is pretty much over then. GOG will have to either step in and move it on to the next game, or it dies.

xy2345: Really? 7 hours? Wow!
At least. I slept 5 hours and I remember going to sleep more than 2 hours after RCR started selling.


I wish someone timed the start of the RCR keaning.

From my viewpoint as a Steam user, not really, but I see why someone would want it. Steam offers multiple services on the side of actual gaming (communities, easy mod support) and has its own discount programs, which are kind of helpful if you look for a game from a major studio. One of these gives you bigger chances the more games you have and play on Steam.
I guess the next keaning is down a good way of the road. Maybe this Night (GMT+1) when the GOG guys in Poland will want to sleep again.
