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

Minmataro: I already dealt with my wife aggro.

I just added up the cost of the games if they werent on sale.

"Baby, I paid the price of one new game and got 27, i saved over 150 dollars!!!"

She was happy.

Of course she had a smart comment as she walked away.

"27 games... What about the 400 on steam you've yet to install"

Ahhh... i love marriage.
LMAO!!!!! that is soooo my wife too!

rookie1: I just added up the invoices and it looks like I got 25 games. OUCH!!! How do I explain this to the wife?
I got my bank statements printed out today and the printer thingy kept printing and rattling and printing... half of the transactions were for gog. (I bought 19 games instead of the 7 I initially wanted to get -.- )

Buenro-games: as this all winds down and I won't let my Thief 2 efforts go to waste, I realize it was not worth it. sigh, just seeing this through due to inertia but should have waited for the xmas sale. that's my final verdict
We're in the same boat.

we are a captive audience...the longer GOG can get the customer to hang around, the more likely impulse/unplanned purchases will happen - pure psychology...and factor in "insomnia" too - a total winfall for GOG.

You are doomed.

Buy some equally expensive for her. A thing, she wanted all the time.:D

I think that's an Australian thing, using 'aggro' to mean angry.

cat333pokemon: Hey, I missed RCT3 a while back, and it's pretty much the only game I didn't manage to pick up on this sale that I wanted at the beginning. Would anybody be willing to help me out?
Willing? Yes. Able? No. Sorry... P
Lol all I wanted was Rogue Legacy.. which I got in the first round.. THEN ended up grabbing

Septerra Core
Witcher 2
Alpha Centauri
Baldur's Gate
Baldur's Gate 2
all in the second round

Grabbed Icewind Dale and Planescape in the final round along with a couple of "gifts" for the possibility of a tombraider 123 trade

also got Master of Magic as a freebie... never heard of it but apparently gets a lot of praise.

all in all decent haul ;)

Don't you guys have (use) paypal? You can even save your credit card so you won't have to remember your number.
