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

bringthemback: Im getting a bad feeling we're gonna see Cognition soon... and 1200 copies of it :S
Actually, a nap would be nice :)
Don't forget about the PC + Mac Mix sale too. I picked up Divine Divinity and Stronghold HD off that sale as well as about 5 off the Insomnia sale AquaNox 1 + 2, Strike Suit Zero, Deus Ex GOTY, and Septerra Core). Should be coming to a close here shortly.
Puddle confirms my theory that at least some sales slow down over time, as I took a nap based on how fast it was going, and it still isn't done yet.

Woke up by chance halfway through Thief 3 after giving up. Evil GOG kept me awake until Puddle came up because I also picked up NWN1 and Tomb Raider. Now I'm just looking for the other two Thief games and I'll have everything I want.

stevekharon: I finally changed my avatar from the default one. A tribute to this sale and since I have new games from GOG, I'll probably use the forum more.
We hope to see more of you, true believer!

Keane is the way!
Thank you very much, Muttala, for helping me get Thief 3 and Neverwinter Nights: Diamond Edition!

If anyone has an extra copy of HoMM5 or Startopia please contact Muttala, he really wants those games, and I think he really deserves them, since he was so kind to me.

bringthemback: Anyone has a spare 'I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream' key to trade or something? pls PM me <3
Ya, I'd trade it for the $2.99 sword of the stars the pit dlc, or with something for the $4.99 dlc.

dedoporno: This is true of course. My point was that the overall price of JK2 is too high and most likely became a deal-breaker for most and a show-stopper for everyone :)
avatar
Cardian: Yeah, that's probably true. I guess it's also ts very important factor on some other titles that were close to Keaning like Cognition, Dragon Commander and even Larry.
Oh yeah! Dragon Commander. Man, I would totally buy and play that, but 20+ bucks when on sale? Thanks, but no thanks.
avatar
groze: There were moments when I actually thought that was the end of the sale. No one thought that during the Retro City Rampage Desert Trial because, slowly as it may have been, the game was selling.
The funny thing is, we had The Keaning as a beacon of hope. We knew that it was possible, so 8 hours of RCR didn't really scare us. It just drove us insane...er.

I spent $45 for the next divinity game kickstarter that included it...
just played a couple of levels of puddle (yep i gave in an bought it) i actually quite enjoyed it for only $2 (£1.30) it is not a bad buy as a game to fire up and play a few levels of (first impressions only)

I hear ya. I played the Dragon Knight Saga and actually liked it, especially when TRANSFORMING INTO AN EFFING DRAGON! But more than 20 bucks on a sale is just too much. Plus, my PC probably couldn't handle it right now.

That's where the "er" comes into play ;)

Revenile: Guys, guys, here's a question, which would drive a man more insane, and do it faster:

Cthulhu or Keane?
avatar
no_skill: Cthulhu. Keane will take its time...
I believe in this answer. :-D
Sorry beforehand, I'm getting tired mentally and physically.

Insomkeanea sale rap:

"Well, my name is Keane and I'm stuck on GOG
I just can't help it these sales I clog
I'm making the best of staying awake
Though I'd rather go out and jump in a lake."

(Music: Stuck on Earth by Alf).
Anyone have Thief 3 up for trade PM me with what you need. I've been saving up for this inevitably.
