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

BeorntheBear: Keep in mind that there are thousands (most likely 10s of thousands) of GOG users logged on and clicking simultaneously for the free game. It's like the lottery except we all know what the winning ticket looks like.

Anyway, I still think the sales for this event are crazy ridiculous and most of the games are priced at a point where I feel like I am stealing from the company.
same here
wow, i finally got one freebie =D
woot I got BG1-2, NWN1, IWD1, and a few other games.. now I just want to get IWD2, NWN2

jforte: Not two minutes after I lament that I'd never nab one of the free games, I just nabbed Resonance for free. Sick!
Congratulations. It's an interesting adventure for sure.
Next:
Aquanox 2
Two Worlds 2
Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic

Geez this topic is growing like a foddermucker on speed.. anyway, it's been fun reading your comments while waiting for new deals to arrive. :P
But the fun has come to an end for me as I seem to have all the games that I wanted and a even a few I didn't plan on getting.
Hope all of you get the games you are still waiting for and have a good morning/evening/night.

PS.. please please please don't do this type of sale ever again.. loving the deals but most of us have more things to do besides staying glued to store page ;)

sirchaox1224: I like how they had it for free and then they are like, "Hey you missed it for free? Well why don't you pay $2.49 for it instead..."
Better than what happened with Keane. People paid 11 for it, then the next free game was Keane.
This is one of the more fun sales I've seen in a long time. Got me a couple of the games I was waiting for... hoping for some Leisure Suite Larry love now!
Did anyone else notice that we only need a little over 1,000 more posts in order to break 10,000?
I missed the Icewind Dale Complete, didn't I?
