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

foxworks: I thought it was really cool when they handed out free copies of Witcher 1 during their previous sale.

LeonardoCornejo: I bought Jade Empire just for The Witcher, it turned out wonderfully.
I literally did the exact same thing, funny how that works, isn't it?

groze: Trivia: the Polish currency is called "the euro". Poland is part of the EU, so they use the euro like every one else here -- except for the UK.
Ah, wasn't sure. One of the eastern European countries wasn't part of the EU for some time and I thought it was Poland. I don't keep track too closely of goings on over in that neck of the woods, but that's good to know. ;)

I'm comfortable buying stuff in Euros personally or UK pounds. With games my only concern is region locking or censorship in other countries or similar problems which I know affects some of the online retailers in Europe, however that doesn't really apply to GOG.com as far as I'm aware at least. There have been some great game sales on game retailers in Germany that I skipped due to some titles being censored (and I'm not judging or criticizing that to be clear), or being German only (either in language or region restriction), so outside of GOG and Steam land I'm more careful to read the fine print. ;oP

Update: Indeed, according to Wikipedia, Poland does not use the Euro:

Jade Empire is definitely worth the sale price its going for. Used to own it on the Xbox and bought it on GoG a few weeks ago due to it being on sale. Great atmosphere and writing! old skool Bioware <3

That would be diabolic. I can even see how they'd implement it. Jebus, that would be so, so evil....

avatar
zeffyr: Apparently yes.
I stand corrected. Didn't mean to misinform, I'm awfully sorry.

Thanks for all the quick replies.

foxworks: Given the hype in this forum I am going to get Jade Empire. Sounds too good to pass up.
Jade Empire's awesome.
I wish Bioware would do a sequel...

I think the Danish people are also not using the euro.

We aren't. We have our own Danish Crown (just like Swedes have the Swedish Crown and Norway has the Norse Crown).
