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

4. Only aware of the sale after the first run was over :/
While i was meditating, focusing on feeling how my beard is growing I suddenly came upon a revelation. It hit me - the sheer brillance behind digital sales being final. Trully, what an insightful man came up with that idea. I wonder, what was he doing when he was struck by enlightenment.

[edit]
Does the counter go down when the game becomes reserved for purchase? If so, we need 71 brave souls to press that nce green button, and forget about it.

6. Which made my GOG collection actually go into 'above 300 games' area :)
Probably it will be faster to setup kickstarter to fund buying the remaining 73 copies.... :P

I currently stand at 7.

And I'm NOT making Jack Keane number 8. -.-
They should go back to alternating between two titles. You'd think that at least the other game would get sales and keep this whole promo going...
Hmm. I bet I could go back and read all 4556 posts in this discussion before JK2 sells out.

I bought one but am waiting for several including Inquisitor; my damned Time Warner went out from 1-3 Pacific today and I think I missed Neverwinter 2 :(
One hour is up. 27 sales so far. Seriously, give it up, GOG.

Captain_Picard: Why you should buy Jack Keane 2:

Forget Mario and Luigi; those sewer crawling peasants. Sonic? Ignore that washed out hog. Deus Ex GOTY? More like Ex GOTY.

Jack Keane 2 is a marvel of video gaming engineering and cinematic wonder. It is a true testament to the art form that is video games and will stand the test of time with its outstanding voice acting and compelling story that modern video games cannot recreate.
You, sir, are saying what we're all thinking. :D
Wow can't believe I didn't think of this sooner. Cue Jeopardy music.

2. I'm hoping a couple others repeat as I missed them but who knows if I will be able to stay awake to find out.
