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

shadowbaneaxe: Doh.. Missed TA:Kingdoms for free.

Would've liked that one.
Clicked on it the instant it came up...no dice. D'oh.
WOW, I actually got a free game! I got the page saying that the promo had ended, but just got the email saying my order was processed. It is possible folks!!!

Dragnerok_X: Thoughts on SotS: The Pit? Yay or nay?
Yay. Its a good game, especially for $2.
Every time there's a freebie the site crashes for me and when I boot it back up it's gone. I bet we'll be reading in the next few days how some hacker used bots or something to get a bunch of free game codes during this sale.

What's the point in giving out free games if nobody gets them because the site crashes?
This whole free game schtick is something I hope in the future is more well thought out.

As far as the sale goes, I have my cc - right here in front of me. Three attempts at purchasing shouldn't mean three errors when going through the checkout - but that has been my experience so far.

A complete and utter waste of time on my end. GoG can do better than this.
Also got a free TA:Kingdoms. I don't really want it. Is it possible to trade here?
I obtain one free. Total Annihilation.

It's pretty good for $2 imo. You may want to wait for a special on the DLC before you get it though.

And the crowd does not go wild for Sword of the Stars. It's kind of a tough sell, after they just released the Gold edition, to try to get people to buy this the inferior version on sale now.
Somewhere we can see the list of 101 game they are going to have for sale?
Well, I'm not that much into RTS games, so if any of you who would actually play TA can tell me how (or if) I can gift it, I'd be happy to hand it over to someone who would enjoy it more than me.
