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

jfelsman: Is Spellforce good?
avatar
wrathsinger: Pretty decent. The only reason I'm not buying it here is that I already have it on steam.
I have it on Steam, too. And thats why I just bought it here >:D

mudd1: A miracle just happened. I went to s/eep around 4 AM. Some motherfucking idiot asshole just called at 6:20 AM. I thought "Well, since I'm awake anyway, I'll just check in on the Sale." And I just saw the last 3 copies of The Pit trickle away and then got the copy of Thief 2 I was waiting for. Which I would obviously have missed if that motherfucking idiot asshole hadn't called.

Was it worth it? Nooooo. But still a miracle :)

beyondinfinate: You're meant to own Thief 2, so says the gods.
It's always the same with those deities. They could just have made Thief 2 come up earlier instead of calling me.

Likewise the people who are convinced that God rescued them from drowning. Well, that bastard might alternatively not have send the flood in the first place.

kcrabb: steam in the states has jade empire for sale. Idk for you but it might worth checking
Yes I have seen. 3,8€ its a little bit too much for a game I allready have (in german), but if its 4$ or less I will buy it on gog (because of the soundtrack I would prefer gog).

Thx anyway!
HMMMmmmmm.

On the fence.


Spellforce? or not?

Maybe someone would get it for me and take either Planescape: Torment or Theme Hospital off my hands?
Did Conquistador go while I was sleeping?
Maybe at the end they will put all the games that were on Sale at 75% OFF for 12 hours.... Maybe
Or
One Free Game for all account holders out of a select list .... Maybe

jfelsman: Think I handed out 16 in the end.
avatar
kklsid: 10 so far.
0 GoG keys (going to try and make a trade for tomb raider 123 before i give them out)
I want to say between 12-16 Steam/desura/origin keys

Dajjer: I'm done. Not quite ready to have 3 copies of Psychonauts.

27 games purchased in the insomnia sale, but of my wish list I was 1 for 3. I got Startopia but missed out on Deus Ex and Planescape. Of the games in the insomnia sale, I really wanted Age of Wonders, Shadow Magic, but of course the one time I left the house the game was offered.

So right now I have 98 games in my GOG library. About 1/3 of them I already have in the garage somewhere but it's nice to have an extra storage in the "Cloud" so to speak. Who knows if I will get a chance to finish and beat them all but it sure is nice having a wide choice to pick from.

Oh Well, I'm off to play another GOG classic, Gothic 3
Gothic 3 is a blight, not a classic. Install ALL community patches, and all quest addons you can get. Because this i an rpg without mainquest.

This game is on my: DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THIS CRAP list.

Other entries on that list:

The Enclave, Star Wolves 2, Divine Divinity.

kcrabb: 12 games 25 bucks! my kind of sale!
That is what I came up with too. Then I caved and bought Conquistador, Thief II, and will more than likely pick up Psychonauts. Made out like a bandit!
Dang. Looks like this sale is coming to an end.
Too bad I have to go to sleep. Not likely that it will still be going on in 8 hours, eh?
Not unless there's one last Keaning for old times' sake.

Good Keane to all and to all a Keane night.

mudd1: So was it the Kronos or Qo'noS spelling of the Klingon homeworld?

I must say, pretty mean call, to have one word having two solutions and the other being a character from a movie everybody is actively trying to wipe from their memories ;)
avatar
howardc007: It was K. Though I used Q at first as well, then once it wasn't working, realized that it was the alternate spelling.
Ok, now that that is settled, I can go back to sleep ;) Thanks!
avatar
keef0723: Thief 2 was fast. I think it might just be a record
Wait what. Thief 2 has already gone through again? Didn't even see it appear on the main page.
And after Psychonauts, as a last goodbye, we get another 2100 copies of NWN 2 - for free .D
I actually wouldn't mind hearing more about spellforce as well, it looks interesting but I'm not sure if it's worth picking up.
