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

Dreadjaws: The Pit is keaning, so why the heck are the forums so hard to access?
The less interesting the game the more active the forum.
I am beginning to think the servers really had an aneurysm. I am getting the "504 Gateway Time-out" message way more now than usual, and SOTS is not a heavy like Jade or Thief, or even HOMM3.
I wonder who was the clown at GOG that decided to put out 750 copies of that Sword of the Stars game.

We were on such a good high to close the sale out and now... nice going GOG>
well finally i got all games i wanted except eador --- but i had no money to buy it anyway *sad face* --- maybe next time

hope they put it in xmas sale
I think I came out pretty well with this sale, my only regret is being asleep for Theme Hospital. I did grab some things out of impulse that I'm looking forward to playing.
high rated
I clicked so fast on Sybera and yet it said that the offer has expired.

But, wait! There is a twist ending... I got an email with the details of my latest game!! I got it after all :D

Since I was very amused by this and want to share my joy with the kind people on this forum treat yourself to a Jade Empire on me ;)

Hello everyone. Is there anybody who is waiting for Thief II: Metal Age and can buy another copy for me ? I haven't slept for 2 days I was waiting for another games and I'm really tired. I could pay with some steam keys from Origin Bundle or maybe just buy some other gift from GOG for this person from another discount. Any volunteers ?

Russonc: I keep getting bumped from the Forum....heck that is the main reason I am hanging on so long!

Momo1991: Syberia flew by....and then there were four!
Only 4? O_o No wonder I didn't manage with clicking then, lol. It's kinda sad though, this is probably my utmost favourite adventure (or ok, that's within dispute with Myst). Gratz to the grabbers tho, it's a great game :)
Anyone know if Psychonauts is enjoyable with a xbox 360 controller (I have one) ?
Looks like the kind of game I would like to play from a distance on the couch.

Momo1991: Syberia flew by....and then there were four!
four really I got one only problem is I have both Syberia games already and I cant gift it.
With Syberia, I clicked the green buy button and it said it wasn't available anymore but then I went back said there was 12 left.
Aaaannnd I got the last game I wanted :) I can sleep tonight. It's been a pleasure surviving this sale with you all :)

My final haul was:

Master of Orion 1+2
Neverwinter Nights Diamond
Neverwinter. nights 2 Complete
Planescape Torment
Baldur's Gate 2
Icewind Dale
Divine Divinity (yeah, I know it's not technically an Insomnia sale game, but it WAS on sale!)
King of Dragon Pass (Thank you Uzur9!)
Jade Empire
Sword of the Stars: The Pit

Heh, and I didn't plan on buying ANYTHING :)

Only game I missed that I really wanted was Baldur's Gate 2, but maybe I'll get the enhanced edition on Steam.
