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

Judgement101: So, it seems like the freebie issue can be summed up as "How dare GoG give away free games that I didn't get! How dare they!" Seriously people, this sale is ABSURD, stop complaining about the freebies and just buy some 80% off games!

trebor8273: agree but a lot of those complaining don't seem do have bought anything, just hang around trying to get free games and have a fit when they don't. why guy even emitted this and even said he would pirate stuff he didn't win!!
First of all, I have 115 of GOG's games - bought at least 110 of them (got some of the available free games). I didn't have to but all those games - I could have gotten them all for free. But I bought them because I like the idea of a company selling non-DRM games. I did it because of the goodwill I have towards GOG.

But if GOG pulls stupid stunts, and then a rabid collective of mindless supporters try to defend them, I start feeling like a sucker for buying all those games, and will just say FUCK IT and get 'em for free.

1000 copies of Sykrim for 1.99$ would make the GoG servers implode.

sirchaox1224: OK, everybody seriously needs to STFU and buy another copy of The Book of Unwritten Tales, right now. It'll cure what ales ya!

maul_inc: How about.... no....?

I already "helped out" by buying Lucius. :D

Ps. Still hope Lucius is good. and not trash like people seems to think
I thought it was good. Nothing amazing, but for the 3 quid it was a few minutes ago it ain't a bad purchase :)
Have I lost Heroes of Might and Magic 3 in the last hour?

Mr_GeO: Someone write-off this book already!
I'd only consider mercy buying if it's Jack again, otherwise no xP I also have this on GOG already. xP
Darn, I knew it...

kc7wzl: I will always buy from GOG before I will buy elsewhere. because they are DRM free... I avoid steam because the DRM!!
Steam has modern games though. Unless you play only old games (not that there's anything wrong with that), you don't have much of a choice.
With this sale, i'm guessing there won't be any weekend sale for GOG?
Come on, you all know you want an extra Book in your inventory!
I survived Jack Keane, but am about to lose this BOUT...

TROLL!!!

***WARNING -- DO NOT FEED***
The name of this thread keeps fooling me. I keep reading Fall Insomina Promo as "Fail Insomina Promo" :D



Ps. No it's not a fail. I really like it :)
Is there Privateer 2 or Wing Commander Academy on the list? I guess WC Prophecy is not gonna be here.
Freebies are here just for purposes of GoG to test their server's durability. :)
