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

Sacred and Wing Commander 4 I missed and regrets :(

Is wing commander 4 has good controls for mouse and keyboard?
2900+ posts? holy shit. Just got home from work. *sigh* So I guess I missed 74 sales/free items based on that list on reddit. Some of us aren't able to check the internet or buy stuff during work hours.

Oh well, with the amount of games I have that I are waiting to be played, its probably for the better.

Khalaq: Probably. Steam has already stolen so many ideas from GOG that I'm surprised they still need to hire anyone for marketing.

Fictionvision: I think their servers would crash even harder than GOG's from how many people would be hammering them.

Edit: Also, common Don't Starve for a repeat! I was curious about the game before and $5 would be right enough to take a chance on it.
Imitation is a form of flattery isnt it? :D. Like to see Steam try...if i remember they initially had problems when they had their sales every now and then?
EDIT: Ok, I see you added credits in the meantime - cool.

Hope the next one is another Beyond good and evil. I'll buy that shit like I have extra money to spend! \o/

Vestin: Anyone wants free Sacred?
Go ahead and fish it out the same way I did :D!

jaba.de.hut: You're the best :D I missed so many freebies
Now imagine my surprise when I found that code in all the garbled text. One reload and it would've been gone, no way to press "Submit" xD...

HypersomniacLive: Since you copied it word for word, you should at least have given credit to the person that run this on reddit.
added the link at the top. pasted it to save some people time :)
just one more.......

chuppy: Ok, so what do I do if a game doesn't show up in my library, but the transaction appears to be pending in my bank account?

I've bought Neverwinter Nights 2, I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream, Baldur's Gate, Primordia and Planescape Torment. Those are 5 game that have appeared in my library. I also tried to buy Baldur's Gate 2 but I got several errors during checkout and no confirmation, not even by e-mail. But still, a sixth transaction of 1,99$ appears in my account.

So the money's gone, I didn't get the game and I don't know what to do.

Any ideas?
If you still have checkout page opened with transaction error info, try to send your credit card information again until you'll see purchase confirmation.

I just saw you did and edited my post accordingly.
btw, this sale is proof of how evil GOG is.

Instead of letting people play games and enjoy themselves, they are making us stare at the screen yelling at that last copy of Jack Keane or Omerta to sell.

Elmofongo: Is wing commander 4 has good controls for mouse and keyboard?
All Wing Commander games are playable with mouse and keyboard, the controls are pretty good in my opinion.
