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

Yellowsamuel: Is every game on the site gonna go on sale at some point? I've a few in my wish list I'd like to snap up.
Sadly no.
If it's that bad... maybe we should buy it as a gift for our hated ones?

Paul31286: I went to bed 6 hours ago when the first round of games was through and they started repeating the deals (beginning with 600 copies of Hotline Miami). Did I miss anything since then or did they really just repeat all the deals?
Assassins creed, that's literally the only new game, the rest has been this crap.
Nexus would make me sad. Glad I missed it.

I bought it with all DLC at full proce, figured it wouldn't go on sale anytime soon as it was a new game.
20 mins and counting since the last copy sold.

If I hate someone I don't want to waste $12 on them.
Well, folks, it's been "interesting," and I'm out for the night. I felt like this promotion had some real potential, but the actual execution kinda died. I didn't end up spending a dime, and in my book, that's a fail.

Well, better luck next time, GOG. It was a good idea, but let's shelve this one.
MOVE!

Maybe I should lie down for a nap. Hell, if I sleep for 8 hours and check, JK2 might still be on sale.
LOL @ the new reviews!

BananaJane: Sadly no.
:'( At this rate we won't see another deal before this year is out!
I feel bad for the developers of Jack Keane 2.

They repeat in random order.
Call me when it's reached 10 left. 555-123-4567 (to those who really call it...wow)

Fictionvision: 15 min later the review asking for 83 more people to buy it is still valid :(
I looked at the date for the second review and lol'ed.

I'm new here, how do you sort reviews by date?
