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

astraldemon: That "Jack Keane" jokes are really not funny anymore, half of posts per page have some variant of Jack Keane ...
Please stop it
Clearly you've just slept too much to appreciate the humour.

Short story, he said games from japan sucks, this after a fan asked him what he thought of those games.

Fish, in retaliation, tweeted that Beer is a “media leech,” a “middle-aged parasite,” an “inconsequential limey fuck,” and a “small commentator” who “ejaculate[s] vomit” and “sit[s] in judgement, masturbating.”

"One of his outbursts via twitter: “people telling me they’re going to pirate my game because they dont like me. gamers are the worst fucking people [sic].” "

And why would I do that when I couldn't give a shit if he killed kittens?

ahab: Outburst? lmfao. gamers are little bitches, his correct, just look at how they acted at his opinion on japanese games (which do mostly suck)
Ah. You follow the Fish approach to winning friends and influencing people, I see.

smoother: Read all of his tweets!

Just google "phil fish tweets".
i read a bunch off that site linked and im still missing the 'outburst'
ive read pages of the tweets and nothing that bad is popping out at me.

i guess i should watch this video which lit the fuse, but thats that angryguy being negative (unless fish shows up in the episode, which id doubtful of)

what are like the top 5 "outburst" tweets?

I've yet to hear anyone say

"I was really surprised when he went out with a gun and shot all those people, he seemed like such a nice guy online"

In my experience if you can be a complete jerk online you tend to be a jerk in real life as well...

Hmm, are you so unhappy about waiting that your eyes have drooped, or are you standing on your head?
Is this going to end, its hard to make a new thread without people being distracted by this sale and this thread :(
