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

If it's indeed only 48hrs, getting over with it should be quite effortless.

Well, I slept earlier, so being up for a couple days shouldn't be terribly hard. Besides, I'm sure that in running 4 dozen rounds of flash deals there'll be some repeats.
So today we get another Super Soporific Sale. I guess the two of those balance out the two Insomnias. :)

But they don't make up for no Insomnia Promo, not even combined. ॓_॔

They certainly don't. I was implying that they were counterweights to the Insomnia Sales. Like matter and antimatter. :)

Ha, then I guess we got an abundance of antimatter this year, and very little of what matters! (~_^)

With the unusually early Winter Sale this year, I think it is becoming more probable that we are going to have an Insomnia sale later this year after all. It would be weird to not have any sale at all during the holidays, wouldn't it?

With the Steam winter sale going on, Insomnia might be GOG's only real hope of attracting a significant portion of gamers to gog.com during that time. Insomnia is the only type of sale that sets GOG apart from the competition. I think it would be a smart move, but of course it may be nothing more than wishful thinking.

While I really would love to have another Insomnia, I hope it will not be during christmas holiday, since I would miss a lot of the fun. Yes quite selfish of me ;-)
For those Insomnia maniacs out there ...... it's really funny to log off and check gog.com main page to see how the 250.000 counter is going down.

Not that I do that. Not me.

Btw there are 210.000 copies of Age of Wonders left.

Yes, a lot of people actually have something better to do during the holidays than to follow crazy sales. Nevertheless, there are lots of sales everywhere during that time of the year. So, it's possible. Anyway, I would always prefer an inconvenient Insomnia to no Insomnia :)

It's even easier to open the site in incognito mode. This way, there's no need to log out and back in. Not that I do that either...

195 000 copies left :)

I usually use Crome but now I also have an Internet Explorer window opened (logged off on gog.com) just to check how Age of Wonders goes away.

180 000 copies left!

It appears that with the Winter Sale, folks forgot about our hero Jack. (◕︵◕)

Jack might be forgotten now, but his fiery soul will continue burning and one day he will arise anew like the phoenix and bring back the Keaning hope to everyone.
