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

MMM, should I bump off one of my wishlist to get Anvil of Dawn?
It looks like an rpg I would dig, but what to give up later...

edit:typo

V_Racer: Do NOT miss Wing Commander IV with that kind of price, it's practically a steal.

..unless you're allergic to space sims.

Zera: I ended up buying it on an impulse. I was surprised at the size though, 6gb for a 1995 game?
Early CD-ROM games with full motion videos often took several CD.
This time banner with the Kings Bounty do not even finish to load before vanishing.
Well, at least I don't get another teddy bear...
Well it seems hell has frozen over here for me. I can't believe I got Crossworld GOTY free. I just hit the buy button randomly on switch. Since I have game already, I will give away to some lucky person in giveaway or something or other ^_^
i bet everyone uses tools, as soon the games changes BAM, instaclick :D
grrr I was waiting for that. I wish they would put it up as a paid sale

Fictionvision: I've never played a Wing Commander, is this a good jump in point?

xenxander: Yeah! Do so!

They are best played with the joystick if you happen to have one. honestly that's the best experience for these most awesome games.

Don't miss this chance :)

Artificer: I'd recommend starting at the beginning, honestly. The first four are basically a single story arc.
I went ahead and got it. I'll probably go ahead and get 1 2 and 3 during the holiday sale later. If I get the story out of order some that isn't a huge deal to me, so it was worth trying for $1.49.

Thanks both of you.

dal4fsu: Seriously! I am on a 100meg internet feed using Google Chrome and I hit that button almost before it came up and I couldn't get it. Please explain to me how anyone can get it!
At least u earn in dollars and have proces in dolars - and yet u whine.
Oh god, what did I miss. Some time around 3am Jack Kean2 was staring at me and I kinda blacked out. It was like a wall, unmoving, filled with hate and spittle. I come back and things seem to be moving again. Did the devs finally take mercy on us? Did a paladin show up in poland and kill that bastard? Will we ever know?

Who cares. If JK2 shows up again though we should write our congressmen to declare war. We cant let this suffering return.

Well if I was paranoid I would say automated bots or special scripts that monitor the feed and autoclicks when the right variables appear.... but I'm not paranoid :)
Just bought my first game so far from this promo.

Just keep trying man! I've been able to snag 3 free games and I'm just on a 20mb down / 5mb up FIOS connection using plain on Firefox and I'm in the U.S.

Well it is basically luck at this point, I'm sure they have spent some time setting up the system for all this.

It still stings to see it slip by.
I guess its almost time to finally goto bed 1:55am here, wasted most of the day watching this.
I imagine it will be over by the time I get up unless JK2 can delay it for another 5 hours :P!!!!!!!!
