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

Senteria: What do you mean free game? You still pay for it. It's just discounted or am I missing something?
See here.

warpax: well no freebies but I got Ultima 7 and NwN diamond, neither of which Ive played :)
NWN Diamond is awesome if only for the expansions especially Hordes of the Underdark. So much fun. I also really like NWN's main campaign, but it does drag in the first act. Act II is good though!
Bwahaha! Bought my first game of the sale, Lords of Midnight. I already own just about every other game on the site that I'm interested in. Got a couple of bears attack first though.

Harermuir: It has been quite a long time that gog has not make such a fail on communication with his customer. After the "we close our service joke", here is the "look at the amazing price you wont have because there is no stock for each game and the server cannot handle the charge". Time to think about what you are doing before actually doing it, dont you think ?
Don't see why anyone would be riled by this "Special Promo" - it's just that, and in a month comes Christmas sales and tons of normal promos. This ones a fun diversion where you can test your luck in getting free games and trying to buy great games for small prices.

SLP2000: I had absolutely no problem in buying games, so it may be on your end, not GOGs
Sure, because "Internal server error" is client-side based...
I managed to buy a game (Baldur's Gate 2 Complete), I got the Pay Pal e-mail saying the payment has been made, but the GOG account page showed an error and the game does not appear to be in my collection... I'm more than willing to send you guys a copy of the Pay Pal e-mail I got.
I GOT SPELLFORCE!
Wow, they offered a freebie that I bought 30 minutes prior, ouch.
