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

LeonardoCornejo: I love Jade Empire, it is a true classic to me.

johnnygoging: Where are these guys saying Jade Empire is mediocre? What are they comparing it to? Honestly Jade Empire is one of the best games made. Who could say different? Why would you? Jade Empire is nothing besides awesome.
I only played through Jade Emprie once. Was a good experience, but I never managed to really get another playthrough complete.

cakeface: Only on Wednesdays and alternate weekends am I great. The rest of the time I'm just plain old awesome.

smoother: Now I have to give you +1 again! :D
+1 for your +1!

justanoldgamer: Buy Omerta or you'll find a horse's head in your bed.

You can always bake a cake in the shape of a horses head and use that instead... :D
They had Syberia for sale? I liked Syberia II.
avatar
HexElf: For me, I got.

Star Control 1+2
Master of Orion 1+2
Wing Commander 4
Sacred Gold
Total Annihilation
Total Annihilation: Kingdoms
Aquanox 2
Syberia
Blackwell Bundle

All but Bllackwell, Syberia and TA were impulse buys, the rest I grabbed due to the amazing price after looking them up on Youtube. Sacred in particular looked so amazing and I grabbed it even though it meant going over budget.

Minmataro: Is star control 1+2 good? Ive yet to play any of those. Back in the day i was more of a RPG nut so i missed the boat.
Well I only had time to play them briefly. They're certainly interesting but I would say Master of Orion, especially 2, looks a lot better. The first Star Control is more of a shooter with a versus mode than a strategy game though it's really well balanced from what I've been reading.

zeffyr: 0,00$ on the account... Is the sale over for me? :-(
I don't know...what were you looking for?
Where are the guys posting the lists on this thread? For once, I miss those!
So I 'slept' on the couch all night - waking myself up every hour or so to see if Fez was done. I was asleep about 8 this morning when my DH got up and woke me by telling me he had to to go the Hospital!!! I jumped up in a huge, sleep deprived panic! "What's Wrong"?




Turns out he was just asking if Theme Hospital had come up yet!!!

I only play through pretty much any game once, unless it is part of a series and I want a refresher when the next game in the series comes out.
During this sale i leveled both a Druid and Assassin HC in Diablo 2 into hell mode...

Thats insane, ive been sitting at this PC way too long the last 5 days.

Velgor: I don't know...what were you looking for?
Tomb Raider 1+2+3 and both Neverwinters - those are still on my wishlist!

BHTrellis: Well, let me be the first, if not the only, complainer/whiner to publicly apologize to anyone I might have made mad. It was not intentional. And I see now that if I wasn't to get a game on this sale then I wasn't meant to get it at this time.

You guys are right, Freebies are for the fast. I'm not fast enough.

Lets hope, in the future, GoG can make this sale more efficient. Maybe give a few more codes for the freebies... Run the sales at different times... Maybe use your purchase history to determine the sale you get......
What game did you miss out on, anyway?

With my kitchen skills? A horse's head is more humane.
