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

zlep: It does, but it has to be plugged into the wiimote to do that, just like the standard (non wireless) nunchuk. So your controller kind of has a heavy tail attached.

Knofbath: None of the games that use the Classic controller need the motion sensor, so you shouldn't be jumping around like that anyway.
Who's jumping anywhere? Even sitting on a lounge chair, the wiimote has to sit somewhere. Probably in your lap. And sometimes you move and it slides. It's not a deal-breaker or anything, but you're not completely unaware that there's an object tied onto your controller. It's not optimal in the way that a wired controller (or keyboard/mouse) feels a little more confining than a wireless one.

rookie1: I want to see what the are going to do at the end.
Oooh, so do I! Guess I'll get a chance to finish my book then! ;P

iLiVeInAbOx: Why am I still here?! Ugh, I guess I'll just wait until Thief 2 finishes :)
even though Thief 2 was the last of the wish list ( was here from the beginning but I had to wait on a few titles to get the wife permission ( 2 or 3 games would be ok but with the amount I wanted I needed permission just as I would require from her )). I will stay till the end of the sale!

heh I was correct that this sell would last longer than the weekend promo.

with this sell I now own 55 games on here.. up from 15 wow I spent way too much... beans I really only wanted 10 games.. bah!

kklsid: Successful, declined, successful, declined...

PayPal isn't so happy with me anymore. At least every other payment gets through. Lol.
Yeah, they tried to cut me off yesterday. I complained, they should put their guarddog program back on the leash.

zlep: I am *so* sick of the forum transporting me back a zillion pages (equivalent to at least half a Keane) every time I post something. I'm already running on barely any sleep; the time-lapse forum flashes just confuse me. x_x

Knofbath: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/special_promo_fall_insomnia_promo will always take you to the last page of this topic, so start from there, make your post, and when it jumps you back in time hit the Back button on your browser.
Aha! I wish I'd known this 70 hours ago...

Remember the bad old days when the controller cords were only 6ft long? Move too far away and you jerked the console around. Spoiled kids.
been lots of fun over the past couple of days - some great folks here! thank you my friends. :)

Why the last game I wanted is the last :( lol
LOL I almost missed Thief 2 because of my boss (on another note I shouldn't be checking GOG at the office!).
