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

Gunsik: this is making me sad... i dont even blink when one sale is going down but i still didnt saw a freebie it just changed to jack keane... if not my friend and You guys i wouldnt even know there was chance for pudle... I hope if gog decide to make similar sale they will find some way to give chances for all gog lovers for free game
Would have been quite possible, actually. Example:

Let a "free game" offer stand for 1 minute. During that minute, people can click a "Want it" button. After the minute is over, the copies are randomly distributed among the participants.

An additional option would have been to give people the option of either clicking "want it", or "Don't want it", with the latter giving them a bonus the next time they _do_ click "want it" on a free game. This would have increased the chances that free games find their way to people who actually care about them, instead of the current system, where you have to click the button so fast that you can't even check what you would be getting.
Did the Stock Market crash?
A moment of appreciation for the people buying Jack Keane 2. :p

Just kidding. It actually looks like a decent game, but I think it's the 2nd most expensive game in the promo after Divinity: Dragon Commander, so the interest just isn't going to be as high.
Someone come play some Arcomage with me while we wait. [url=]arcomage.net[/url]
85 now....LOL

Oh well I can prepare lunch and watch something in the mean time.

liamphoenix: Okay, time to go grab a sammich.

Wonder if I can walk to Subway, eat, and get back before the next game is up.
You could buy some farmland and make your own from scratch before the next game is up.

Wiewioor: I wish I had a two display setup - I could play on one and wait for next game on another.

BTW - Are Tex Murphy adventures part of promo?
The first one.
I'm curious how many of those 100 people will buy the game just to see the next ones.
JACK2 is also slow because it was recently on sale at the same %, now if it was lets say 70%, it would go faster.

I didn't buy it then, or now, because of the reviews and the price.

If you buy it and send me the code I'll redeem it, but that's about it.

I'm serious, buy it for me.


Now. >:D

Ok to help pass the time we can make a list and add to it. I'll start:

List of things you can do before Jack Keane 2 sells out

1. Reinstall Windows
2. Go to Subway, get a sandwich, eat it, then come back home.
Well let's call it a night people! It was a great sale while it lasted...wish I could have been there for Age of Wonders 1...
