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

Velgor: Same here, my Nexus 7 has allowed me to roam a bit around the house and to wake up in the middle of the night in a panic, check the current sale - read forum for list of items gone and then fall back in a fitful sleep for another 20 minutes.
I've been doing that with my Nexus 4 lately. Last night was a rollercoaster. Slept in 40 minute intervals :D

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...
Well, sometimes ago i saw a guy playing a game on a laptop and i liked it, so i talked a few with him about it while watching him playing. I asked him the title because i wanted to buy the game, but when i came home i realized i already had it for months. -_-

Buenro-games: Nexus flew. Silly GOG can't seem to get the demand vs supply issue right.

Soccorro: Or they just got it right... Sell more unpopular games and less popular games...
Well, it's not as if I'm going to buy Resonance after missing Nexus, simply because the cash is still in my account. :P

Commander Keane ;) But I don't even know what game this is about. Probably Nexus, I already have that ;)

Edit: Oh, it was for LoM. Thank god, I didn't win it. Somebody else is surely happier with it. (Not to say it's a bad game, it's just not my taste.)

johnnygoging: I feel like there's a lot of negativity towards humble bundle sometimes on this forum. that kind of loyalty helps everyone but us.

4.73 for arkham asylu, the fear games, and everything else is nothing short of amazing. and I don't know how anyone can say the rest of the humble bundle is pure crap.
A lot of people here are very supportive of Humble Bundle.

As for the negativity... remember that much of the GOG community prizes DRM-free as a thing of value. Humble started out looking as if they valued it too, but more recently have switched to heavy usage of Steam keys, even for some games that are readily available in DRM-free form. That choice has improved Humble's reputation among Steam fans, particularly the "no-Steam-no-buy" crowd, but has reduced it among DRM-free supporters. Swings and roundabouts. It's hard to be popular with everyone at once.

Soccorro: Has anyone missed the privateer sale?
avatar
mm3n: Me pretty much, but that was due to wallet issues. In some future sale I might grab it.
Same for me, only really interested in 8-9 of the games and thought I had money for 3 of them, NWN 2 meant I could only afford 2=).

Maybe that's because I'm using a phone, not a tablet.I don't know.

But at least I'm not going to beg someone to buy NWN Diamond for me. I don't do that,

i think its just to get rid of unpopular games in order to get to the popular games. so they sell 30000 units of lets say keane just to offer 20 units of system shock 2.

Wouldn't know since I am mostly a classic gamer. But I will take your word for it. Kid's tastes are bound to be different than mine.

Suloyapla: Yes, but I meant longer, as I have been around since thursday evening, I guess.
InZombia... urrrrrgh.
Since Wednesday for me... with only a few breaks here and there. I am going to have to log some serious hours into work to get reasonably back on track. My only saving grace is that I'm a freelancer, but still...
