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

The free games are ridiculous, 99.99% of the users can't get any, why have them other than to tease us at this point?
Damn!
Wing Commander went down fast :D Lol

Remembers me when iOS devs post promo keys on facebook :P
I just saw Wind Commande IV for free... for less than 1 second! Damn bots >.<
(EU here.)

It was WC4? All I saw was it was Wing Commander...something, I never even got a box art.
I'm so glad I already own the whole WC series. :D
I didn't even see Wing Commander, haha. I have seen a glimpse of every other freebie though, so that's a first.

tfishell: I'm assuming that the free games just fly by because people in Europe receive them quicker? I'm in the US, and WC4 just came and went in 1 second.
Nope, I'm in Europe and I never even SAW WC4 :(
Holy crap. Managed to get wing commander, what nice Christmas present from gog

I'm in the uk and I didn't even see it show up.
I got Chaos Engine! Wohoooo!
God dammit, I really would have liked wing commander 4.
I wish they would put the "bad" games for free, since it seems IMPOSSIBLE for mere mortals to get them....

keeveek: I missed Wing Commander 4 for free ;-(
The free games aren't even showing up for me. No big deal though. I feel bad enough paying so little for the games that aren't free.
Man I blinked and it was gone. I bet Dick Cheney is scoring all the free games
The frees are impossible...
