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

GR3G0R14N: is deadly shadows as good as first two ?
Deadly shadows is not quite as good as the first two, but then again, very few games are as good as the first two. :) It is still very similar in game play, and quite enjoyable in it's own right. Plus, it completes the storyline began in the first two.

This ridiculousness is totally voluntary ... :D

CarrionCrow: Don't feel like you're the only one. I don't like Mass Effect, loathed Fallout 3, only found enjoyment in New Vegas by running through it, killing everything I could and never using a shop, got bored to tears by Skyrim, haven't liked a Final Fantasy since 6, got sick of Dragon Age and never finished it, played through System Shock 2 once to completion then decided to never play it again because I didn't think it was that great.

jackster79: I guess that begs the question: what do you look for in RPGs? The list you gave seems to run the gamut of just about every type of RPG there is (group, solo, turn-based, real-time, linear-narrative-driven, open-world, etc.).
Characters I can give a crap about. A plot that isn't drenched in weapons-grade stupidity. Availability of items to feel as though wealth is available to be accumulated without it becoming a compulsive hoarding nightmare. Combat that has variation, allowing for use of actual tactics. (Case in point - Skyrim. I had a 1-2-3 easy as pie way to kill dragons. Multiple ones. Simultaneously. They just became giant mosquitoes to swat in a moment.) Actual story resolution. (gives ME3 the finger).

Alien8n: Best bit of Fallout 3 was blowing up the nuke in the town :p

jpwiseguy: Agreed. I had to go back and do that over and over again.
I killed the man in the white suit and stole his clothes. I played with his naked legs before a left the bar.

mkell_226: Most say no (myself included,) but for me, it has more than enough of that Thief-y feel to be worth playing.
It certainly looks more appealing than the new Thief, which looks much more like Dishonored (which was inspired by Thief, the circle is complete=).
here we are texas is almost done
Argh, picked up another game, The Real Texas, that I hadn't planned on. I even got an alert from my bank about unusual activity. YES! YES, I AM DOING IT! I AM BUYING ALL THESE GAMES! It's retail therapy...
