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

anx: Will the next game be Jade Empire? I already have it on Steam but since I didn't manage to buy anything in this promo I'll pick it up.

DrRoxo: Speaking of Jade Empire, does that game become repetitive at any point? It looks fun & some locations seem pretty bitchin', so I might get it.
Didn't feel like it to me when I first played it. Although I never could finish it a second time around. But the story is pretty cool.

And for the price it's on GOG you realyl can't do anything wrong.
Rats I couldnt take it and dozed off with like 60 copies of Dont Starve left. If THIEF or JADE came up after, it;s sad. :* (

They didn't. You only missed Shadowman and an Aquanox 2 Freebie. After that was RCR for a couple of hours. And it's still going.
And a Guten morgen to you, fellow German. Hope you slept well.

Neither one did. You're good.
This is horrifying!

Thanks, all I wanted to hear! Was practically decided, this was just that little excuse I still needed to hear to break down. So it's JE and Beyond that I still need to get. Only three more weeks until next paycheck >_< :D

Cardian: Jack Keane only had 100 copies, though. Nobody is gonna surpass The Keaning!
Yes but Keane was $12 while RCR is 3x cheaper so its more like errr 100 copies of Keane vs 600/3=200 copies of RCR

The race is closer than you think!

(P.S. if the above math is completely f---ed and makes no sense well its 6am here and I haven't slept. blame sleep deprivation. if somehow my math is correct well then, yay me!)
Ausgezeichnet! Wow good news after all. Maybe it was done on purpose so those guys in Poland could take a break. A conspiracy is a foot, code name: The Kean

The Keaning is upon us!
The 5hr mark has come and gone. Still 158 lucky customers to go!
Any Sierra fans in this thread? Played any of the fan made games like King´s Quest and Space Quest? If you haven´t they are free and really good=).

For you that haven´t played games like King´s Quest, Police Quest and Space Quest there is a site where the first games in those series are played online for free. Try it if you like "old school" adventure games where you type or if you like really old games that are only text based=).

The site is http://sarien.net/

These games are playable:
King´s Quest 1-3
Police Quest 1
Space Quest 1-2
The Black Couldron (based on the movie with the same name)

I didn't find it repetitive either. I finished it once but I want to play it again.

For me it was a bit hard to get used to the combat system but after getting used to it I enjoyed the fights.

That is a very good point that I didn't consider and will therefore also blame on sleep deprivation (or being temporarily dim). Unless RCR takes 30 hours from start to finish, it won't surpass the sheer misery in sales numbers as Jack Keane.

We really need a timer or a voting button for skipping.
