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

Anything between Planescape and Primordial besides Rayman and any freebies?
Here is the pattern GOG is using for this sales event:

billybgame: Not even a full second, this time, and still didn't get Septerra Core. I clicked immediately. I call BS.

saruchan: It's not.

Your computer asks for an update on how many games are sold and if it should change every 2 seconds. You can look at the script the server uses, it's pretty clear. If you get the free game up at 1 millisecond in to the giveaway, that's very different from getting it on your computer 1.999 seconds after it started. You can't control exactly when the system changes to the next game, as you can't know exactly when the last copy of the previous game was purchased.
this, i won 3 free games

zaine-h: Well, I must say it's been an eventful sale. I gladly bought both the Riddick game and Don't Starve. Thanks for the sale, GOG!
I bought Riddick for $5.99 in a past sale and thought it was totally worth it.
Replay value was not high, but the story/action was great.

Mr_GeO: OK, whoever is craving WC: Privateer better have your CC ready, because this might be next :)

bell02: sorry, :/ i know i´m little way over the top. I try it all day long and than i must read this shitty opera browser cheat... no wonder why the freebies are gone under 5 milli sec. :/

sorry....
No problem. Didn't want to insult.

Just that the hysterics are ill-founded.

Would be nice of GOG to give unlimited freebies at one time in this sale. For a minute or so. Would cheer up many who have stalked the promo. :)
The current promos aren't an exact repeat of last nights run as reported on reddit
I want to take a 4 hour break, can I request fifty copies of Jack Keane 2 next?

:P

Nah, it'd just annoy the people who stopped watching before that giveaway.
Does anybody have an extra copy of Rogue Legacy they want to swap for something else?

Well, the original sales did go that way, that's how reddit got the list in the first place, they were updating the post as the sales went on.

I wish-that's the only game I wanted from this entire sale.
So it might be Lucius or BG2 next?
