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

Grabbed an extra NEXUS too, maybe someone will need it... and maybe someone managed to pick up an extra Sacred Gold earlier?

FrodoBaggins: Resonance is up now. Brilliant game! ( :
It really is

BHTrellis: What do people do? Use a pneumatic mouse clicker at 35,000 RPM to grab those freebies? Let someone that didn't get any, like myself and many other have at least one.
sheer luck!
I was just reminiscing when we were wondering if this topic could hit the 10,000 post limit...

That was Omertas, nay, Keanes ago!

EDIT: Resonance seems to be disappearing at a nice pace, though.

mm3n: Damn, I got distracted for a sec as I thought Wargame would take some hour to sell. What was the freebie?
Lords of Midnight
actually, this one looks pretty decent...would buy it for a $1 but not $2.50 - spent too much already and have more games to come.

I'll take it, please.

Crowned: Oh damn, 600 copies of Resonance. I have a gut feeling this will take a while.

zarquon: Resonance is actually a really good game, but point-and-click adventures do seem to sell slowly during this promo, so you could be right...
Misread as porno because tired.

EvilPie: So you guys somehow managed to convince me to buy nexus.

Clicked to buy it: "you already own this game."

...I have a problem...
Bahaha, amazing :D

It's worth way more than the sale asking price...... so so sad

thorton70: Damn LOL by the time I finished reading a few reviews on Nexus, watching a youtube video and seeing some screen-caps I went to buy it and bam gone. That went fast lol
I just looked at a few screenshots and snatched it... more trusting the hype in this thread than anything :D

SpiderFighter: Ah, thanks. My last PS was the first one. :)

Shendue: I took a brief look at your collection, but you own about half the freaking website catalogue, so it's pretty hard to tell your preferences. :D
But i can tell you i don't like at all isometric shooters, nor i do like motorcycles, so yeah, i guess our taste in games is probably different. Which is good. If everyone likes the same kind of games, it kills the variety. Just take a look at the industry nowadays.
LOL! Nah, only about a third. :) I'm the same way as you...even if I like a certain genre, I may not like every game within that genre. Some of those games on my Mix I grabbed during a really cheap sale if I happen to have the money and am not sure enough about a game to buy it at full price (which is what I did with Startopia, Wargame: European Escalation, and WC:Privateer during this sale).

Maybe we can open a trade thread when Insane Insomnia Promo is over.

This sale has been warping out perception of prices lol
