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

Buenro-games: This game is actually pretty great. I own it and the only real complaint about it was the original sale price.
avatar
gamingrn: Yeah, and (crosses fingers) it's moving pretty well at the moment. It really is a good deal.
I hope the original price ($25) will be lowered down at some point and then at 80% off the final price would be more manageable for me :D Today is still not :)

nijuu: Out of curiosity are you guys mainly buying stuff for yourselves, gifts or for trading? ;)
Yes! )

itchy01ca01: So alright, a lot of people posting on this thread are from europe. Just wondering how most of you write better English than native English speakers? Did you guys learn it in school or are you from the UK/North America? Just curious.
Most Europeans are taught English and, when you're taught a language, you pay attention to grammar more than a native speaker. It's very common in the mainland.

ChocoboSlayer: Ok, feeling good about the 30 or so games I've gotten so far during this sale, but what about Armored Princess?

I love tbs, HOMM, but I already have Armored Princess vanilla and all the expansions except this one (got them all in bundles). Does this really deserve my $5 of blood money?
It's mostly an expansion of Armored Princess, so no you don't really need it. I've already got it from that 1C weekly bundle a few months ago.

I don't know about those guys, but I'm Latin American, native Spanish speaker, and I've learned English mostly from osmosis.

Mostly buying for myself, but I've gotten NWN for friends who I'm convinced should play that, and I've gotten a couple just because I found myself staring at it for hours and went it's cheap, why the heck not.
For anyone on the fence about King's Bounty, I can tell you it's a great game.. You can literally play for hundreds of hours.

If you're new to the genre, it's a good place to start, as it's easy to pick up and learn.
My 23rd game since Monday.
Some help me!

Briareos262: some gifting and I enjoy this thread too. Also maybe with dumb luck ill hit a free game that I don't have which is next to nil anyways.
I'm on a tight budget and have been picking up just a few games for me (still waiting...) and actually did manage to luck into a free one once, but as others have said, the thread is good times too.

Buying stuff for myself, budgets are very tight.

A little from Column A and a little from Column B. I don't tend to trade. I give gifts and accept gifts, but trades aren't generally my style.
