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

I'm actually hoping that the next one's Omerta with plenty of copies.

Yeah, I know, it's an evil thing to wish for, but I would be able to sleep soundly without worrying any of my wanted games would be up while I slept. :P
"For less than the price of a cup of coffee you can give a poor gamer a chance to have a better game promo..."

Sorry, couldn't resist. ;)

Grew up watching Classic Who. Love Newho too. Matt Smith is awesome. I'm gonna be sad to see him go, but man, I am so looking forward to Saturday 11/23/2013! Doctor Who 50 year Anniversary!

DukeDuvel: Aww... you shouldn't have said.... you shouldn't have said that!

Oofles: As we watch the deals turn sour
Patiently waiting for our hour
Rise O armies of Jade Empire

As the wind howls and turns us pale
We whisper and drink of wine and ale
Silently with shivers for Icewind Dale

As these eyes seethe with hate
An atrocious trap set with bait
Please have mercy, Balder's Gate
Morning all. Good night's sleep behind me, and it seems that Jade Empire is still up for grabs? Excellent.

deathmyrk: Ok. I got it. It was easier than I made it out to be lol. I never played KF I. This is very interesting. I played KF for Playstation, but it was actually KF2 japan version, and KF 2 for playstation is really KF3, KF4 for PS2 is actually when the Japan and US versions were actually the same. I always wanted to try the original KF and it's a real surprise. It's very awkward though, because I am using a keyboard it feels like I am playing Mech Command with that huge block of a control board. I know there's a way to use PS controllers on computers. In any case, yeah, all of the King's Field games are real good, and each bring their own unique feel to them.

I need to get the other two games, but you really need to try out the originals, especially if you like older PS and PS2 games.

Minmataro: Find a program called JoytoKey then you can bind keyboard functions to your PS controller. Im doing that with my Xbox 360 remote with Xpadder. Made it easier to play.
Thanks! I'll definitely do that. The keyboard is also making Shadow Man much harder than it should be also.

Nameless ones wait for chance events
Doing actions they soon resent
As they suffer for Planescape: Torment

I cheated and had to google for torment rhymes.

The Word Association Game is ahead still, but by the end of the night that may not be so.
