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

Show me your proof.

Wait, you have none.

I, on the other hand, can show you post after post of real people, known to the community here, who are not using scripts or bots.

You see what I mean about evidence? But then, the world is just so full of people who aren't willing to accept that when they don't get something it doesn't mean that they were cheated upon.

Well, I was commuting home back then. :) Regardless, great game, IMHO. At least Butcher bay part.

Simbabluenobi: When this sale started a lot of people bummed out because they were at work and GOG obviously didn't disclose ALL the information about the sale at the time. They said they had a limited number of games to sell and seem to keep selling them which seems to make some question their credibility or something BUT look at it this way.
Lets say they have 5000 of a certain game they plan to sell so to make it FAIR to everyone they spread that 5000 out over 24 hours at varying price discounts including a small number for free. Everybody gets a chance at every game at some level of deep discount. They probably also had to Promise the Indie developers a certain number of Sales for their games too so they would go along with the nature of the sale including Free copies. I think GOG did a pretty Good Job at putting on this actually pretty Cool and entertaining Sale and made it Fair for all of it's users.
Agreed wholeheartedly. This is a fun way to host a sale which keeps people coming back for the off chance that they might catch the deal they were looking out for.

The burning question now is, will Steam ever do something like this?

The difficulty and puzzles are very fair. Especially by the standards of the genre. Without being a walkover they've avoided the nightmare roadblocks of trying to pixel hunt and work out an obscure item combo by brute force.

mondo84: Big ol' list
+1 and thank you for making this list.

Just so you know, GoG always has great sales and even offers a Free game to everyone from time to time. So don't worry if you don't get a Free game in this sale...

Not really, I guess your Internet connection might be the most important thing. Yesterday (and almost whole night) while hunting at freebies I only got one of them. Today, at work, where my Interent connection is better, I got 3 of them.
just got system shock 2 as a redeem gift (thanks man)

ps: they dont give away unique-key for that...for all those who are corcerned....

anyone interested for co-op???
GOG, this is an evil sale! I can't stop watching! Thanks for the deals I have picked up though!

Theyve done a pretty good job (freebies aside). Just needed the time limiter and either lower the amounts indies sold or deepen the discount..some stuff moved to slow and slowed the sales....

Gratz on your purchase, I bought it too. When has a point-n-click ever been hard?
