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

Shendue: Well, maybe you should play the REAL FF successor, which is Lost Odyssey. The game that has Final Fantasy battle system, only deeper, Hironoby Sakaguchi as the game designer and Uematsu as the music composer.
FF XIII is just Nomura unleashed.

Palidor12: I had never heard of this game, and now I know why - it's on XBOX 360, which I don't have. *sigh*
If you have the chance to buy it, playing LO is a good reason to do it. Best JRPG this gen. Amazing story, very poetic and beautiful. Deep combat. Likeable characters. It even has "short stories" written by famous japanese writers you can collect as diary pages of the protagonist, which is an immortal (a la Highlander), And those are pretty moving. Lots of tearjerking and awesome moments. Great music as well (it's Uematsu, 'nuff said).

JoseWisemang: I'm thinking about putting a dollar down on the weekly bundle just for Jag alliance 2...

BTW did fallout ever go on sale during the insomnia?
well it was not part of the insomnia sale that I have seen..
If any one is curious, Dark Eye computer games were originally released in the US as Realms of Arkania. Played em back in the day, not too bad. Not sure how it would convert to an adventure game though.

Buenro-games: I don't get this Dark Eye game, how the heck does a D&D game gets turned into a point-n-click adventure game. No wonder I never heard of it.
Since you're German you probably know the magazine "Gamestar". They have a good review about this Dark Eye on the website (even with Test Video for free).
What? There was a freebie right now? Blackwell Bundle? What?
And here I thought my connection was fast enough. I didn't even see it!

deathmyrk: Does any know if Thunderscape has been/is going to be sold?
avatar
Buenro-games: The Thundercats have left the building.
Just my luck... I don't know if the game is worth paying full price. Well that was the only real thing I was following. I'll see what they have left in store I guess.
Does anybody know if Baldur's Gate has already been given? Or Icewind Dale? Want one so badly.
Between Omerta, Keanage, and Retro City in this sale I feel like there's a supervillian plot or at least a song or two for Dr Horrible 2 when that eventually comes along in a few years.

DrRoxo: Uprated for making me aware of amazaballs Cthulhu themed song!

CorranHorn: If you like H.P. Lovecraft then Alone In The Dark could be a good game to read about=).
I acutally have AintD 3 boxed, alsi if you like h.p. lovecraft may i suggest taking a look at Eldritch? it's an rogue like stealth game.

Rupretto: The world of The Dark Eye is fleshed out enough to give room for many kinds of games.
There is even some kind of strategy game in the making.

But true, the heart of Dark Eye is RPG, and maybe that's why some people have problems with this game.
I see.
Aww, I gonna go nap in the corner of forum, wake me for the shift change of.
