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

Zera: They get better exclusives though.
If they didn't get good exclusives, make a wild guess at how many units they'd sell xP Go ahead, try :P

artrucho: $3 for Torchlight, that's 3 dollars more than some of us paid around here ;) But even at $5 or 10 it's worth it, such a good game.
I wish GOG had more of those "free game for a day" things.
It's in my stable - but I haven't had time to play it yet. Maybe at Christmas time!
Need another Jack Keane. Need more sleep.

But PCs cost 11 billion dollars to be able to run games and consoles are cheap! You only have to buy the console!

Then pay $50 a year online. Then pay $60 for new games. Then pay $60 for another controller if your's breaks.

Totally cheaper!!!!111

I love my PC.
The best part is: it's all DRM free. :)

Ohh yeah I was thinking I don't remember buying Torchlight, and then they had that free game day...ahh good times!

DubConqueror: It's hard to find 47 people that don't own Torchlight yet.

wolfsite: Own it twice already
Same here. If I didn't have TL2 I'd be playing this again.

The PC elitists are rearing there ugly heads, can't people enjoy both PC gaming and consoles?

skeletonbow: A blue from GOG posted yesterday that they examined the server logs and they do not notice any bot-like activity swooping in on freebies. He stated something to the effect that the massive number of people monitoring the sale all hitting the button when a freebie pops up and the low quantity gobbles them up very quickly more or less (paraphrasing). It's either earlier in this thread, or in the log thread.
It's actually Here in the 'Trying for free games? You've already lost' thread. :)

And THAT is why I continue to buy and support GOG - no pirating on my part at all.
Torchlight is actually doing pretty good for a game most of the GOGites (myself included) got for free not too long ago. Rightfully so, might I add, $3/€2-ish is a steal for such a great game.
Master of Orion 1 and 2 now - this will take ages (everyone has these games right ? ;))
