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

CarrionCrow: For all this to end, you have to depend on there being people waiting with bated breath to buy Psychonauts for, what, a dollar fifty less than what they could have gotten at any point in time during the weekend, without having to engage in a campaign of utterly unhinged exercises in delayed gratification. And there will need to be HUNDREDS of those people. This may very well never end.

Edit - And the truly sad thing is that, as I posted that, I heard a tiny voice in my brain say, "Maybe so, but we're still going to ride this bitch all the way down." Need to take up drinking as soon as possible, I think.

wackyanne: And am I not mistaken, were you not the one who invented the drinking game for the insomnia sale? and then added that you were tee-totalling? ;)
I saw that drinking game, anyone who tried it died of alcohol poisoning or exploded bladder a long time ago.

Not me, I mentioned to the originator that they might as well devise a way to shoot everyone via net connection since by their rules we'd all be dead from alcohol poisoning otherwise.

Uzur9: Speaking of Mass Effect... Anyone play all the ME3 story DLC?
I don't think anyone on this site has a stomach for "DLC".

sushirogue: Dear brothers and sisters, while I do wish to keep on sharing the bountiful blessings of our Lord Keane with you all, "Spellforce" is a title that has piqued my interest for quite some time. However, since it is infamous for it's DRM, I must humbly ask, has the GoG version been properly Keaned of the horrible blasphemy known as SecuROM? I don't mean merely deactivated, but actually gone. Thanks in advance and may the Keane be with you... always.
I think Spellforce games used starforce on disc version.

zillatain: Anyway, I honestly think it is going to just end after Psychonauts without any fanfare or even a word from them.

vanchann: That's the way is going to happen.
Very likely. If so we'll have to make up stories...

"Oh man, you didn't stay till the end? We all got Free advanced copies of The Witcher 3"

Dawnreader: Oh my god.. We are still on the road... Sale. Sale never changes.. :)
Some wise man said that once, but then he was painted yellow and used as a sacred gold sacrifice others high altar of The List.
This is recorded in the Book of unwritten Keanes.

I'm still trying to figure out if the ME3 DLC is worth it. I played the ME2 DLC.

I played all ME3 DLC that was available at the time I played through ME3. I think one or two might have been published after.
Spellforce made me realize buying games just cause they have nice colorful graphics is a terrible idea

I did. Leviathan was hands down the most interesting, Omega was a nice addition. The ciadel party one was also pretty funny and worth a few replays.
Hat off to that guy whose said that this sale would last until Tuesday.

Somebody get him a cookie!
