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

Shendue: I already own the physical limited edtion of Witcher 2, so i'm passing on this.

Cardian: I own that one, too, since launch and haven't even started it yet... my PC is just too shabby to run it properly... well, at least I have a Geralt bust and playing cards.
The amount of goodies in that box is insane if you think that many so-called "collector's editions" are just regular editions with a few DLCs and a poorly painted small action figure as extras.
One of my favourite collector's editions in this "next-gen" era.
Now I only wish I had gotten atleast one freebie from this great sale, all my attempts have been futile. :(
Alright, I just leaned out my window and yelled as loud as I could to inform all the people that wanted Witcher 2 that it's currently on sale so they don't miss out. Hope I didn't scare you guys!

snip3rfire: Because every person buying the game right now wants to keep it for themselves.

MaximumBunny: Looks like I didn't sleep through the Thief games. :)
I definitely DID see a Thief game earlier, but I'm not sure what it was. Didn't last too long...

GabiMoro: Yes, buy you must activate it yourself, not trade it.

Momo1991: True but I was just saying that he could have both 1&2 on his GOG account if that makes him happy. He might not have realized that...
Yes, I bet he didn't knew that...should we give him instructions through PM? He didn't post since you reply to his message.

marsrunner: Swore I was done, but what the hell, bought The Witcher 2 and saw that The Witcher was only $2.49, so added that to the order as well. Woo hoo. Thank goodness I have a 50 Mbps connection! Those are some big files!
We can combine other purchases with this one in the sale.... :o

Star Control! Oh no!

Had to go out this afternoon. Glad to see I haven't missed Cognition. I would NOT be happy, after waiting since Friday to get it. ( :

theadam: Why is The Witcher 2 going so slow? I mean all you need to do to get this awesome game from the best and the friendliest developer ever is enter the code RQW2-B3Z8-6UQB-LJ2T
LOL - nice. +1 (I didn't take the game).

So THAT was what all that noise was! I was wondering why the windows shook and birds fell from the sky. ;)
