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

Faeja_Vu: What's the difference between the "Director's Cut" and the regular AC1?
avatar
chincilla: Its just the name of the PC release that came out much later than the consul one. They added a few extra bits to it really to counter some of the feedback.
With little success, since the extra missions are more boring then the original ones.

MysterD: PC Version was ONLY released w/ "Director's Cut".
It had extra mission types.
Ah. I'd probably have realized that had I taken a little closer refresher look at my AC1 box. I only glanced at it and didn't take note of the "Director's Cut Edition" right above the title... xD

Guess I need more sleep still.. Thanks for the reply. :)
avatar
GhostwriterDoF: If you were thinking about getting Assassins Creed, get it now at this price. It's the biggest discount it's been since it was released here, that I can remember.

Get 'em whilst they're hot!!!
This - that is why I kicked myself so hard for passing on it when it showed up in round 2, which thankfully has been remedied now. :-)
Looking at all the Ubi games here, GOG has to get the Anno games too.

joppo: Technically, if want a good night's sleep, you need them to pull another keane on us.

I hope they're preparing 1000 copies of Keanegnition: Erica Reed Thriller for tomorrow during my work hours, when I'll spend 9 hours away from any PC I can use to check up on GOG.
avatar
MysterD: That'd so work out for me, as well. ;)
I don't consider myself so lucky tho.

I'm only hoping they don't have Jade Empire and Thief scheduled to appear during those hours. The rest I can accept not to see.

mantarrochen: Just make sure you pick one of the other races other than University from time to time. :D
avatar
gscotti: LOL, I _always_ play as University of Planet. Not just because I'm a scientist myself, but I have a ton of Russian colleagues whom I'm good friends with, and respect very much.
Diversity, man. Diversity. Explore the other factions for once. If you like me and are always running GREEN with University, try Deirdre i.e.

Don't worry about it.

Re-check my post.
Added more details to my post.

Hope that helps. :D

Shimejibr: Do want Psychonauts, but might have to go before the next one...

iAmTheTot: In case you weren't aware, Psychonauts is on sale for this whole weekend anyway. http://www.gog.com/promo/pcmac_weekend_promo_151113
Yes, thanks, I just hoped to grab it a little cheaper.
Would you cut it out with the political discussion? Probability says you're all wrong anyway.
Since I already got three gifts during the promo, I thought I need to get the love back to other people as well.
I got a hesitant Alpha Centauri buy here, that I got as a gift.
Wasn't there somebody who hesitated too long?
That's it for me... I've been waiting for 70 hours so far... I'm not gonna make it. Assassins Creed will take too long to sell for me to wait. All I wanted was a Jade Empire. I'm out. Time for sleep.

For me it's just that that free network node is just such a blessing.

Devoidless: Ok, I know those 25 went at a decent rate compared to the 100 but it was nowhere near that fast.
avatar
mm3n: Well ever since the 100 we get quite interesting Keaning reviews. Plus well, some people don't really want to torture others much more so they probably bought a copy to end it faster.
I was here during the 25 JK2 phase, and it was definitely more than 3 minutes. Closer to 10 minutes.
avatar
CarrionCrow: If anything of the original pattern remains, Psychonauts will be next.
No guarantees, though.

Shimejibr: Do want Psychonauts, but might have to go before the next one...

How did you analyze the pattern, anyway?
If you want Psychonauts that badly, GOG is also including it in their weekend promotion (PC+Mac Mix Max), which you can check by going to this link.
maybe someone has a myst code to spare?
