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

Yarilo: Thanks! :D Feels good to finally get a freebie even if it's from the forum :P
NP's it's a WIP so it's got a long way t go.

shayne3: Has anybody actually gotten any of the freebies in this promotion? Or has some Russian bot-writer scored 100%?
I've gotten 3 games total on a crappy DSL connection and im very far away from GOG headquarters so it's very possible to humanly get one. It's just luck =/

FYI, I gave all 3 away to the random poor tired people in this thread since I already had them.

Buenro-games: is that what the list says? freaking GOG, I am starting to get suspicious here and thinking GOG is purposely letting Jade and Thief be last since they have the most interest!

Argh.
I honestly think they don't even know what is coming next...completely random I think (they just set the quantity).

KMJX: Oh hai gogbot

FreDDaN: Gonna be honest here I have never played a single Witcher game... And I don't know why.

worlddan: I liked the original Witcher a lot but I am not a fan of the Witcher 2. It is too much like a console game for me.
At first I didn't like W1 mechanics. W2 was a completely different experience which was a turnoff. Both with their flaws were still enjoyable.
Regarding not getting freebies..
ISP and internet speed have no effect on getting them. People with 100mb/s still miss out.
For some reason most people who get freebies are in Germany. Wonder if GoG servers are there.

Also probably many bots and scripts at work as well.
Antsy? Who's Antsy?!

tobias683: Why did you remove the Witcher 2 from the list? It was up for free but as far as I know it still hasn't had it's 'Last Chance' in round 3.
It was a copy/cut/paste mistake that I promptly fixed right after posting.

Argh.
La Mulana wants to have a word with you about that....
Yay for Ultimas! I've never played them but really want to. Now all I need is BG1 and Planescape Torment and I'm set.

Minmataro: Honestly is there a bad Ultima game? maybe 9? due to rushed development. Kind of nuts that every game and spin off is awesome.
Ultima VIII... jumping avatar.. ugh!!!!

WMDMaster: Also probably many bots and scripts at work as well.
Im trying to be positive about the whole thing.
I start thinking about script kiddies and ill feel like im being robbed and then my whole attitude changes.

So im here just for the sales, that witcher 2 flash by just rubbed me the wrong way, other than that im just happy to get the deals.

TehK47z: Dangit, still can't get free ones. Haven't like half the people left by now?
avatar
Zarahai: nope they're just snorting energy drinks atm which is perfectly fine and has no damaging effects ....you should join us ...
:gooble gaable-gooble gaable: :one of us! one of us!:
Nah, I'm never snorting anything after the time I got rock salt stuck up there. I'll just wash down my caffeine pills with coffee That's healthy, right?.
