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

kecskeszarv: Well, all in all this is a forum, but we use it as a chat room. It holds up pretty well under the heavy load, I think.
If you add a wishlist item "Add GOG chat feature" then I'll be happy to vote for it ;)

I also didn't want to blame anyone. I was just surprised that I couldn't find that wish yet so I added it.

Faenwulf: Thats a good time for 900 (or 1000?) copeis of a 4.99$game in the third round.

Russonc: Note bad, but when I've been staring at a counter for a good part of the last 3 and 1/2 days....it makes me long for those 1 minute 1st rounders..hehe
Same for me, don't worry. ;)

But Cognition is moving surprisingly fast.

Be aware that the Steam version requires, in many cases, that you rename some .exe files for it to run properly. There's fixes explained in the Steam forums.

This is why I'm going to try very hard to get the GOG version :)

mudd1: If anyone else is slightly annoyed by the frequent crashes: http://www.gog.com/wishlist/site/forum_server_that_wont_crash_under_load
GOG will have some nice spare pocket change after this sale. They can put some of that toward upgrading the servers!

Well yes, for its reputation it's moving quite nicely.
