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

wolfsite: I wouldn't say it's unfair, however you can be in a disadvantage if you don't have a decent internet connection or a sluggish computer.
I have a 75 mb down and 35 up connection and an 8 core processor so I doubt it's me

gandalf.nho: Only if you have them as gifts

spoonwhale: So if i got a free game, then i can't give it away or trade it?
Only if you got it as a gift (in the case you already had the game)

YellowAries: Just for the fact how GOG handled giving away these free games I vow to NEVER buy another game from GOG ever again... seriously pissed off about this

And I purchased over 70 games from GOG
It´s not the best way frankly speaking. But come on, it´s not such a big deal, prizes are great. I can´t complain, as is virtually impossible I will get any game for free this night, I am in Asia, using a VPN in a crappy hotel -_-

It's not the fact I am not getting a free game that's bothering me, it's the execution that GOG is using that's bothering me.
