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

legitster: I do believe I am immune to your charms sir!! Back! Back I say!! >:3
Ahem :)

My reaction...
Hey guys, If a game shows up as free in this last run but hasn't been on sale a third time it will come on sale again. Am I correct that it says "last chance" for free games? Cause that's not accurate for games which haven't been on sale three times.

moonshineshadow: How should we know, the images changes before it is completely loaded, thats the speed of freebe ninjas :D
That's why I didn't notice before, sorry! :)

Unfortunately it's past 6pm here so we won't be able to change this now but if anyone else is worried about this, please pass on the message. It's rather difficult to keep up with all the posts!

nijuu: Next one will either be Tales of Monkey Island or a random....
Ha, no shit! Way to cover all your bases. :D

You guys are lucky the higher ups didn't go for my idea of blocking all sales on the site until 10000 copies of Jack Keane 2 were sold. ;)

Entertaining! Helpful sometimes too. Although strangely enough I haven't read all 16000+ of them.

Sorry but I can't talk about those kind of things.
