    I don't think there are going to be any more new deals (although I'm sure many of you missed them the first time they were on)

    My haul: Neverwinter Nights 2, Anvil of Dawn, Thunderscape

    They (GOG) wrote that they have 101 games on sale (not 101 sales). I think there were about 60-70 games so far so I would expect some new games.
    My haul are Star Control 1+2 and Operation Flashpoint aka Arma: something, but I will probably go to sleep in a moment. Maybe wait for nearest free game.

    *shrug* There hasn't been a single game for the past two hours that I haven't seen before. Perhaps they're saving something for 4 AM, or perhaps you miscounted.

    ^ People counting on the gog forums said there'd been 101, so likely there won't be anything new.

    Why was this thread unwatched for me? Now I missed precious hours full of opportunities to ruin myself financially. Oh well, I did outsource and just let Bee do the farming :smug:

    Gotta admit, this has been a pretty lulzy sale, just watching the free games disappear in milliseconds is funny.

    I got Expeditions: Conquistador for $5. That's probably the only thing I'll get, but I have seen some nice deals that tempted me a lot. I'm surprised how I haven't been nursing this fucking stress sale all day. I've just been popping in every once in a while to see what's up. I'm changing...

    It's really poor form of GOG to do this. This is bait and switch I would expect from a shady electronics chain "ONLY 25 HDTVs AT THIS PRICE WOW!!" that advertises in printed tabloids, combined with the strategies of the likes of Zynga. Not from a sympathetic company that built its business model on treating its customers fairly and with integrity.

    No, this is the company that builts its buisiness on three core ideas:
    1) DRM sucks
    2) Nostalgia sells
    3) Crazy stunts

    This insomania sale belongs to category 3)

    Grabbed a fair bunch - Book of Unwritten Tales, Sniper Elite, TA:K, Space Colony and King's Bounty. Cheap enough to be worth the gamble for the most part.

    It's amazing how things can backfire just like that. I'll probably be through my classes tomorrow before Jack Keane 2 ends.

    The 50 copies of Jack Keane 2 that were on sale during the initial rush took about a half-hour to sell out. It's taken them an hour to sell 30 this time around, so it's going to be a while for sure.

    Seriously, over-priced crappy games should not be in this sale -- throws a wrench in the works and everything grinds to a halt!

  25. :lol::lol:
    So... anyone has spare $732 to buy all of this crap that halts the overall fun?

    Just kidding, let GOG enjoy what it deserves for putting a crappy game on sale.
