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

What happened to this? Leisure Suit Larry is currently on sale(third time?) with 1000 copies.

Timelord1963: Congratulations, you just created a sentence that's never been said before :)

(and likely never said again ;)

Briareos262: I actually saw the movie too....on netflix however. Didn't like it though =/ I only saw it for the sheer curiosity and my love of the original Postal game.
Have to admit I've not seen it myself, but I have seen Uwe Bohl despoil a few other video game licenses. Shudder...

Hackworthy: Ah, you guys must have played Leisure Suit Jack Keane 3: The Hunt for Patrick Swayze.
Scratch that, sleep deprived, that was an inappropriate joke.

caledhel: What games were on sale since JK2?
Chaos Engine, Reus, Megabyte Punch, Tex Murphy: Under a Killing Moon, Rogue Legacy, Populous: The Beginning, Syberia, Postal 2, and now Brutal Legend.
I'm jealous of any one that got any Thief games, hopefully... hopefully... I'm praying that thief 3 or 1 comes up.

3000 people in this world did not own Leisure Suit Larry. GoG fixed that problem.

Nope. Hasn't come up.
Well, Larry's going slowly today. Well, it's old, it already did well last time, it won't be that easy I suppose

I get the feeling if there is a third run it might well be just a select few good sellers in more limited quantities (once they start to see sales start to peter off)
Starting to lose hope that NwN2 is going to show up again-again. I can tell I'm super tired by the amount of puns I was throwing around.

Artificer: I doubt it, not their style and with their userbase it'd just get silly if the servers didn't outright crash within minutes.

Besides, this is hardly a GoG original anyway.

nijuu: Havent seen anyone else have sale like this before :D
Steam doesn't want to reveal how many games they sold, so I don't think they will use that idea at all. Plus you have to have a good sense of humor to make Insomnia Sale...

think eveyone who wanted would of picked it up last time, we will be here for days when omerta comes back up!!
So anything new while i was asleep or do they just repeat the same deals all over again?

I found the pun amusing. Perhaps a sign of how tired I am. :P
But I agree; I'm not sure it will be back a third time. :/
