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

lefty: Overloaded GOG's servers and a huge internet connection latency I think...

nijuu: They probably need to find a different way to do freebies..Having fast latency so close to them is a tad unfair
Believe me, as you see, I'm from Poland and I have no advantage of the fact that I'm close to GOG servers (to be honest, we don't really know if their servers are in Poland or not).
The bots and scripts thing is pretty shit :(
Could do with a few games that havent been up for sale yet... keep the sale fresh (bugger the 101 games gone already)

Risingson: Faster than expected
Very surprised.

I'm not saying it's a bad game, just that it's not a very good deal, I think.

I'm still not sure if there are bots.
I've actually read actual people telling they got a free game.
Ok, today I grabbed: Shelter, Hotline Miami, Two Worlds 2, Rayman Origins, Lords of Midnight.
Plus a free Master of Magic.

I think I have all the games I wanted from this promo. Since it's only repeats from now on, apparently, I'm off.
Good night, ladies & gentlemen!

EDIT: oh well, a little Total Annihilation for $1,49 can't hurt, hey?

Gog need a chat of some kind. Always refreshing the forums is probably adding to their sever load.
