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

mantarrochen: Are you feeling the need to play your new GOG-HoMM despite the fact you played it on Steam before? I feel up to it.
I don't know about you, but I have this little problem with the HoMM series that involves not being able to stop once I start. I think I need to let some time pass after this sale ends first. I need to sleep sometime, eh?

tinyE: Can anyone give a comparison game to HOMM 5? Is it RPG, TBS, Strategy? It kind of looks like a card game offshoot ie AOW?
It's TBS. Age of Wonders is similar.
So, I'm back and still see Heroes of Jack and Kaene selling :P

It's sort of like HoMM III, except it sucks.

Seriously though, it's a turn based 4X fantasy strategy game. If you haven't played the HoMM series, maybe you played MoM?

turn base strategy, similar to AOW
Anyone interested in Neverwinter Nights 2 for HOMMV?

MasodikTiasma: Hi again, I'm bumping this it is already 5 pages away...

I own HOMMV on Steam, but the game keeps crashing on Win7 64. I read it's a common issue.

Is the GOG version more stable? Has it been patched recently?

Thanks in advance!
I have no problems with the game in W7 64 bits, but I just play 6 hours to prove it.

It's a third person, squad-based, tactical cover-shooter, with cinematic cover-shooting and quick-time events, and an emphasis on instant-fail stealth sections. With DLC.*

*Not really.

KMJX: Due to popular demand, I'll just edit this post for
THE LIST
I had to upvote this just for how I read your post. I refreshed the page, saw the first bit, then refreshed again and "THE LIST" showed up. Awesome timing. xD

Turn based strategy. Hire a hero and move around on your turn, recruit units from towns and map locations, upgrade towns to have advanced units. Battle enemy heroes and capture their towns until you control the map or achieve the mission objective.
