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

I think it ate my response as well. Unless it is being even slower than it seems.
Can someone buy the last ~80 copies of Anodyne? It's a neat game, and I really want to get to Startopia...
So if we do hit 10,000 posts, does the whole forum grind to a halt?
Are you guys sure that was a bear 'bearing' the world? It does not seem a bear to me...

Zoidberg: Now that the sale comes to an end, I'll reiterate: the sale was a decent idea but the free bullshit has to go, or to be severely edited if there is a next time for it. Because it is not fair, and gog is about fair gaming, right? :D
They got to stop with having people waiting in line (while they shout out offers) for hours just to buy what you want.
Anodyne is slowing down :>
Just remember that if you did not get a game you really wanted during the Insomnia Sale, then there will be another chance to pick it up for a really cheap price during the Christmas Sale.

Still over 400 to go.
btw, I heard from a reliable friend that Anodyne is really an awesome game.
You should try it.

Buenro-games: Toll for the day:

0 free games

4 sorry offer expired

shitload of bears carrying the weight of the world on its shoulders (no, it didn't make me feel sorry for the bastard)

I guess, thanks GOG.(?)
There is a saying that free things are actually expensive - in your case you wasted heaps of time and a bit of nerves. I bought a few games for peanuts and of course I didn't get a shot at free games either. But I'm sure Santa GOG will give you something good soon!

Hey Doctor Z my friend, did you enjoy the sale? I got 7 free games, hope did well, too!

Ate mine too. May be a sign that the sale's winding down, with just Startopia (and maybe a freebie) after this, and they already gave up on whatever extra bandwidth / server power deals they had made for it?
