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

ne_zavarj: Have you ever heard of time zones ? Also some of us have a job , family . Do you think everyone is sitting in front of their PCs all day and staring at the screen while waiting for the new flash deal ?
I am.
What? Just a promo and a new release? Where is my dancing bear?! This place is really going down the drains, ever since it went out of beta! :P
That's cool that I don't have to refresh the page. Neato. [thumbs up]

Telika: It's a fact. Valid for all "let's capitalize on absence of reflexion" devices.
If that's the road you gonna take, I have nothing more to say to you.
Dang! I already got this one! ahh well, Happy days for everyone else watching the flip, cause this game, especially it's modding community is AMAZING :)
Don't Starve - cue to go out to lunch. Please take your time so I don't miss the next one!
this promo sucks. i'm in classes all day, now i'm probably going to miss the games that i've been waiting patiently to go on sale so i can buy them. god knows when they'll even go on sale again.
I'm counting on all of you to grab me copies of anything I really want during this sale. Thanks, in advance!

The self-entitlement never ceases to amaze me!

HertogJan: Nice promo.
Only thing I'm missing is a counter that shows the number of games we're at (1/100, 10/101, etc).
avatar
BoxOfSnoo: And a cruel list of "game deals you missed". Maybe that's upcoming.
I would really want...both! Please GOG!
*snort*

What?
(Glad not to do any of that, cause it's afternoon at my place. Also, good thing. Games!)

Licurg: If it's something I want, you guys don't buy anything until I post in this thread that I bought it.
This:)
Auto-updating page means I can minimize the gog front page to a 1/20 of the screen and just browse the web while glancing at the counter every now and then. Feels good, man.
