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

ToxicCosmos: I'm still hoping to get NwN 1&2 and System Shock 2 before this sale is over...
Same. Well, mostly. I totally missed System Shock 2, and the server had a hissy fit when I tried to snag NwN2. My heart, it was broken.
System Shock 2, Nexus, NWN, BG2, BG1,IWD, Don't Starve , Age of Wonders Shadow Magic, Dark Eye: Chains of Satinav . Deus Ex GOTY,Space Colony, The Witcher 2,Rogue Legacy, Planescape, Brutal Legend all havent come up a second time as of yet (as far as i can tell)

BananaJane: Yeah been here 13 hours, I hope it ends so I can rest

CarrionCrow: Have to stick it out. Ridiculously stubborn determination at this point. Sat through 5 hours of Jack Keane absurdity, have to at least grab what was intended if at all possible.
I pity you guys from the US. Most of us in here in Euriope were able to participate in the first loop, where the games went quickly. Sitting through 5 hours of Jack Keane must be like hell ;).

Frostyfirefly: What's that game about?
avatar
Artificer: Not entirely easy to briefly encapsulate, but it's the fourth game in the X series which started... 1999. Wikipedia calls it a "science fiction space trading and combat simulator" and that'll mostly do the trick although it's still a gross understatement.
I would call it Elite on steroids. ;-)

warpax: i was able to get NwN Diamond and Ultima 7 this afternoon
I'm still hoping to catch Deus Ex and maybe Divinity Dragon Commander if the discount is high enough.
You may have missed Dragon Commander I saw it about 10 or so hours ago it was 50% off at 22.49, so unless they bring out a few more copies....
avatar
Artificer: On a totally different topic, is anyone else here extremely excited about the release of X: Rebirth tomorrow?
avatar
Aningan: Not me, but I am excited about the XCOM: Enemy Within release tomorrow! :)
Ok, I'll give you that one ;)
Of course if they decided to sell X Rebirth without Steam I'd do the same thing as if Bethesda dropped that junk from Skyrim, instabuy.

Frostyfirefly: And some of them don't work on Win 8.

BananaJane: But does anything?
I'll get back to you on that one after I reconfigure and set priorities to all my new games X_x

I was on that first loop and the games just went too fast, on the other hand now they're too slow... :-)

Frostyfirefly: What's that game about?
The X-series have a pretty steep learning curve, think a more hardcore Elite where the main focus is exploring.

I got on at the tail end of the NwN2 sale. And missed it. So I know how you feel. </3

I'd only buy a Bethesda game if it was drm-free and $4.99 or less, because they are incomplete buggy games.
I still do very much like Bethesda game... only in part to the modding compunity FIXING their game for free for Bethesda.
