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

how do I ping a website? (sorry I'm a total noob ;)
Well, Pit is advancing extra slow and it looks like it'll need a couple of hours to finish and my body is about to collapse.
If Thief 2 pops up before I regain consciousness and someone is able to get me I copy I'll be more than happy to make it up for them.

Have a good night (or whatever is on your side of the world) and good hunting!

Xiko91: Jade Empire has already come up?
Only briefly.

DrRoxo: NOOOOOOOO!!!
Three days of waiting, three nights of patiently refreshing and not sleeping and I fall asleep right before Jade Empire :'( Is this hell? ;_;

thorton70: Check pm ;)
T_T I have no words, Sir! THANK YOU! I promise to repay you!
Sadly I missed Deus Ex GotY and Chronicles of Riddick and Primordia and Rayman Origins and Monkey Island and some others. >.<

Any chance somebody got a copy for gift or trade? D:

Prydeless: Me:
Theme Hospital
Jade Empire SE

Gifted:
NWN 2 (thanks the_borderer!)

Gifts Codes:
SS2
BG1
BG2
Ultima 7

Bought everything on impulse except Jade, which got to me for some reason when I hesitated buying it during the second round. Not sure if I'll keep the gifts, but the sale got me paranoid (insomnia ftw!) about the deep discounts on the Infinity engine games so I just got BG 1 and 2.
Still got BG1 code, eh?

Not sure if there's anything on my "HAVE" list that you'd want from me in a trade, so go look if interested:

Which OS?

Chandoraa: I consider Final Fantasy: The Spirit Within to be a good film. Certainly not perfect, but definitely undeserving all
I also liked the movie, never really played the games only tried a demo of FF VI or VII on PC. The movie was pretty good, saw it on the big screen and then got it on DVD and later on BD=).

KMJX: Okay peoples.
I have one spare copy

Neverwinter Nights : Diamond Edition

to give out. There is a problem though:

- I don't want to put it up for ninja grabs
- My imagination right now is suffering from tiredness, so I have no idea what to do about the giveaway
- it has to be in this thread, it Keane't be any other way.

Any ideas?
Wait more, these last games will take a while and give it out later. I think somebody will surface who will want that one badly. Of course do this if you have time, or can postpone this a couple of hours.

A lot of people left for the time being, but may return.

I read that few days back in this thread and learned, lol.

Open cmd in windows and type ping www.gog.com

I hope I explained it well xD

you just posted that 5 minutes ago.
I have about 15-20 ms on crappy 10mbit line.

IMHO GOG should add long and difficult CAPTCHA to all freebies.

Pull up a command prompt and type "ping secure.gog.com".

Command prompt is cmd from the run bar, or Start>Accessories>Command Prompt.
I got the games I wanted, BUT I CAN'T STAY AWAY!! I've formed a habit!

Are you going to stay up for long? You could make a competition involving order of last 4 games. That's 12 contenders. Add something along the lines of "Will we have something unexpected after the end? And if not, will there be freebies?" and you get 36 contenders.

I for one am not interested in NN, since I already have a lot of games I'm more interested in.
