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

stan423321: I can help you with the second one. Any ideas for a 18th birthday present for my friend? Unfortunately, he seems to have no working PC or anything like that, and my "standard gift for not-so-cool people for 18th birthday", the cocktail set, seems to not apply here.
A copy of Cards Against Humanity. That'll keep him and a group of friends rolling on the floor.

Ungunbu: male or female?

stan423321: Male, should have noted but thought "he" would be more visible than it is.
uhm --- well yeah --- i didn't notice

Stooner: Thanks for the explanation, but I don't think I could come with something good that fast anyway... (and if it was longer, probably would make no difference too.. ;p)

Gunsik: maybe it will come in Your dream. if so let me know (C:
err.. you will not want to know what goes on my dreams... trust me. ;p

Buenro-games: That game is trial and error, which makes it so cool. And the infuriating frustrating factor can go way, way up high when you nurse a soldier and take care of him like a little baby up to being a super soldier and out he pops from the space vehicle and gets lasered in the face. Sigh. Good times, good times.

FreDDaN: I'm doing my run on Ironman run because otherwise
I'm just gonna abuse the load button.
haha, oh you foolish mortal. you will become one with the load button after a while of playing that super awesome yet super tough game. be careful though, I think the Ironman mode had some severe issues though, don't remember what they were, but maybe google it for a bit, so you don't get a wasted effort. You will suffer though when you get the berserk or mind control soldier blasting away at your squad inside the vehicle as you curse at the game.
Was Nexus the only thing between Wargame and Resonance?

I heartily endorse that suggestion! Cards Against Humanity is one of the BEST party games, for the right kind of people. It is not for everyone. As long as the people playing are open minded and not too prudish, you'll have a blast. There are some seriously twisted cards in there. So, if you're not easily offended, then this is the game for you. If you do not enjoy innuendo, potty humor, and shock value, then I'd say pass on it.

I also suggest that you do NOT buy it from anyone BUT the publishers. It sells out quickly, and you may have to wait for it to come in stock. There are sharks out there who buy up copies and resell at 2x-10x the price. That's totally sleazy. To counter this a little bit, the original game is available FREE as a download on www.cardsagainsthumanity.com. So you can print out a copy on card stock and still play some while waiting for it to come back into the store.

I aint afraid of shooting my own soldiers. They listen too me and no one else!
I've certainly managed to watch a whole lot of Sons of Anarchy since this promo started. Don't even know why I'm still here; the games I wanted (finally) popped up last night.

Advised a friend to skip Ironman mode as he hates losing people, he thought he was up to the challenge because he also doesnt like to load, first mission he lost 2 guys. He became one with the load button...

Probably okay, it's probably aimed more at early teen in humour though.
