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

Minmataro: People get upset when the keaning comes but without it we would have no sleep, bathroom or meal breaks... imagine if every game went by like NWN2? for 3+ days? we would be screwed.
Exactly! In Insomnia, time zones don't exist. We go to sleep when a phase of The Keaning is upon us. In a lesser phase of The Keaning we ingest food and socialize with loved ones if they're still around.

Good point... :)

How IS that game? The reviews seem to complain about it being repetitive, and relies too much on luck.
Does anyone have a spare IWD to spare? I can't beat the ninjas so a PM would be appreciated.

If every game went with that pace we would have been done with this sale days ago. And I wouldn't have the chance to meet all of the fine people in this forum and have such pleasant discussion. So, yes.

Hooray for the occasional Keaning!

You would insert the U where the ? is....

although someone probably redeemed the code already,

At least you will be ready for the next one that pops up in here...

If you like a fair challenge, you are going to hate it. If you find repetition intolerable, you will also hate it. If you like a 50% skill 50% luck game where you will die a 100 times trying to get to the last floor at the end of a long dungeon crawl where you starve, your weapons get ruined after a few uses and healing items are sparse, this is your game :)

Well this sale would be over much quicker than 3 days without keaning.
We are below 100, I repeat, we are below 100!

snip3rfire: Very confident The Witcher 2 will be the last game.

Why? Because GOG Ltd is a wholly owned subsidiary of CD Projekt RED - the developer and publisher of The Witcher 2.

Simple as that. Jade Empire just has to come before it!

tobias683: I sincerely hope you are wrong and Witcher 2 is next. I really need to get my sleep, and it's schedule back on track.
I hope I'm wrong as well.

Just seems like everyone is expecting this sale to go out with a bang, and unless they release a entirely new game for free (my suggestion, Grim Fandango) or something at unlimited amounts, I don't see how they could end this sale anymore appropriately.

The Witcher 2 - GO!

Argh. Don't do that to me.
Need. Grim Fandango. NOW.
