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

GhostwriterDoF: I did that for Icewind Dale 1-2 and Baldurs Gate 1-2

Shendue: I did it too. I bought extra copies of Deus Ex, SS2, Torment and Neverwinter 2 (i think that one was especially worth buying since i don't have the expansions).
I searched for years for ID 1 expansion Heart of Winter until I finally found it here... Also have a few others on physical media that I'm converting to my GoG game shelves. Just got Assassins Creed a week before this sale... heh

HaydenRead: Jack Keane only got 25 for it's third round
It had 100 for it's second round and took 4 1/2 hours to sell
I know about Keane's reign of terror as I was stupid enough to stay up during it. The 3rd batch at 25 sold out shockingly fast though. Maybe the game got a bad enough reputation that it got some curiosity purchases.

innerring: Thanks for helping create two of the best games ever.

somethingstrange: It was a sad day when Looking Glass closed.
Indeed :(
Did you work on Thief 2 too?

CorranHorn: If you like Planescape Torment, they are doing a "spiritual" sequel that got Kickstarted so if nothing goes wrong by the time you finished the game the next one should be done =).
Who are 'they' and do you have a link? I'm definitely interested :)

Meriande: Go away and give me NWN2 and Theme Hospital so I can finally go to sleep! :P
Same here. Although, if I happen to miss Theme Hospital, I'll probably buy it anyway - $5.99 is still great value.

DubConqueror: So ungundu doesn't need SS2 no more. Anyone else who wanted it, but had no money left?
avatar
BastienN: me? :)
Sorry, already gone. I should have bought 3 gifts to satisfy all that replied so far.

Me :D. Good timing.

Don't forget the mega good reviews people wrote to make it sell out faster in round 3 after the horrors of round 2....

Faenwulf: But I really don't know what I should paly first of my list of new, hot games... :X
what you got?

Pabluzcu: Kudos to the brave one that bought the first copy :)

(It was standing still at 100 for 1 min and it stayed at 99 for a while after :P)
All the games do that, it takes a little bit for people to go through the payment process.
Remember when 10,000 posts was a big deal? Good times.
