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: Didn't someone buy Nexus for you? Or was that another game?

I seem to remember seeing some folks talking about getting you a copy for something.
A kind member gifted it to me today :)

Indeed! The American with the Megaman character as an avatar bought it. I forget his name.

Edit: Oh, he probably PM'd you... I feel silly now.

Austrobogulator: How long does something have to linger for before it's considered crawling?
By impatient internet person standards? Or normal person standards?

Internet person standards, longer than 5 minutes. Normal person standards... I'm not normal, so I can only guess 15-20 minutes? 30?

Captain_Picard: I heard that Larry was pretty slow, can anyone confirm that?

Alright, I had a pretty good idea for him but now I have to scrap it.

FreDDaN: Is there a 3rd chance for Tomb Raider Trilogy or should I just call it night and wait for black friday sale instead?
Yeah. They're going through everything again and Tomb Raider Trilogy hasn't popped up yet.


We're currently on Eador: Masters of the Jack Keane
Well, anytime someone wants to say GOG needs to get more old games because they sell better they can use this sale as ammo for their cause.

Bovrillor: Anyone else suffering the problem where making a post sends you several pages backwards through the thread? I keep getting sent to page 523 :(
Yes, same thing happens to me too...

Madmurdock297: Okay, hands up those people who haven't received a free game and DON'T, I repeat, DO NOT own System Shock 2.

I will pick a random person to get the extra copy I just got.

Reply to this post please.

bluedude5487: I haven't played it! I tried to get it but i got an overflow error.
My clicky finger was too slow. And I have never owned SS2, not even played it once.

toonbach: Do you guys know how how many times Planescape Torment has been up already? I keep missing it.
Twice. The first time was for 500 copies, and I missed the second but people said 1000 copies. It'd be due for a 3rd showing. :)
