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

Pabluzcu: If they launched a final surprise round of Thief 2 that would be so awesome....

I know it wont happen, but a man can dream
Was kind of hoping they might let anyone who bought a game in the sale buy any one game from the list at the sale price...

But, yeah, hopeless optimism. :p

Faeja_Vu: I wouldn't want to see the forums for that sale... I couldn't imagine it being anything like this awesome place.

MGShogun: Seriously. I can imagine that it will be very very very long ranty, angry, and pure flame war thread. :(
Just imagine the keyboard and mouse vs. controller discussion we had, over there. Apologies for having you think about that.

MGShogun: What does this synergy mod does? I usually play it vanilla.

The_Blog: Looks like they added "Flight of the Amazon Queen" as a free one. Strangely its not getting shown as free in my library. I assume this is something like Duke Nukem that goes away after a while. Looks quite good to be honest. Might check it out. :D

That's been around since September. I think you actually have to "purchase" the free games for them to show up though, unless you're just starting a new account, then they show up automatically..

Thanks too !!

kaileeena: Maybe I ll give it another try later, I just hate things that don't have a story (even if its a lame one)

FearfulSymmetry: To be honest, I prefer to have a solid story too, but I'm enjoying Giana Sisters so far. I played through the entire first stage, and everything looks very pretty. Just the gorgeous changing environment is worth playing the game, I think. I don't play a lot of platformers, so it's a bit hard for me at times, but I don't regret it.
Giana is an old classic , there was a legal dispute that occurred since Nintendo claimed copyright infringement, after this every game was removed from store but the game wasn´t gone it still lived on since many had now made a copy of it.

Giana Sisters : Twisted Dreams is a Kickstarted game and should appeal to those who like old platform games combined with a little innovation (the whole shifting between the two worlds thing). I would have gotten it if I could afford it, try the demo before you decide.
Still thinking about an ad from Walmart to get a PS3 and a couple games for 200 dollars. Pretty sure I'd rather have my prostate checked by a drunk blind doctor with hook hands. Can't stand Walmart, and I can guarantee I'll save more money than I would there by buying games from GOG, and feel about a million times better about myself in the process.
