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

DukeDuvel: alright already! Bought one! I came here for Alpha Centauri alone... now look at me... 13 games along! Tsss.... Age of wonders it is...
Aaawww, alright you people, you got me, i snatched one, too.:D
avatar
foo_jam2002: No, it's not Age of Wonders 3, it's the add-on of the second game in the series. AoW3 is due out in 2014. Try also the first one, i still play it!
avatar
mantarrochen: So is AoW 2 required?
No. AoW Shadow Magic is standalone.

deathmyrk: Debating on getting Age of Wonders now. This, or Jade Empire or Neverwinter Nights? Ugh, the choices...
Three pretty different games, what genre do you prefer to play for long periods. Strategy, action/adventure RPG, or old school hardcore RPG?
How much better is this one that the original AOW?

Actually, you want all three. Just pick one, for now, though, if you can't afford the sale prices you're seeing.
For those wondering this seems to be where we are at. I believe Thief 3 will be next if the pattern follows:

DukeDuvel: Resistance is futile...
You will join the InZombians!
(Because the Keanites couldn't care less ;-) )
Is Thief 3 suppose to be the best of the series or Thief 2? I was really only planning on going 1+2, but if it's the best one I might as well get 3. Supposedly it's coming up next.

That is so true it hurts!

JohnnyDollar: I'm resisting an impulse buy.

DukeDuvel: Resistance is futile...
... and fruitless in this case. It only leads to nothing-, empty- and loneliness.
Next up: Thief 3 if we stay on the list.
I'm going to have to leave so, if any kind soul could grab me a copy of Omerta if it comes up, I'd be extremely grateful.

*DISCLAIMER: I was trolling. Please, do not get me an Omerta copy should it come up next! Or do, whatever makes the sales move along. I'm just not playing it afterwards.

Not joking on the 'I have to leave' part, though, so, good luck hunting those games, fellow GOGites!

CorranHorn: Which where the impulse buys?
avatar
Russonc: Lord of Midnight, Riddick, Evoland, Startopia, NWN2, Giana Sisters and HOMM5 and Anvil of Dawn
and If Jade Empires shows up that is really another one that I wasn't planning on...
Riddick is awesome and Startopia is so addictive, when I first saw Little Big Planet that was the game I thought about (the narrator made be think of the game not the game itelf=)).

I also got NWN 2 and installed it last night and tested it, another game that I will have to play at a later date. The installation took longer than it took to download it=).

SpiderFighter: I take it you haven't read John Norman's "Gor" series then? ;)

Alien8n: Strangely enough, no :p

Currently I'm struggling to get through Brent Weeks' Blinding Knife. Almost as difficult to read as LOTR was at the age of 12 :/
Really? I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't think The Black Prism was bad, although his skill for dialogue isn't the greatest. Maybe I'll wait to read BK, then.
