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

I picked up Expeditions: Conquistador, NWN2 Complete, Thunderscape, Beyond Good and Evil, and Eador. Didn't get any of the freebies though..... you fuckers beat me to all of them!

 

[stony3k]

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

 

[sexbad?]

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...

 

[Humanity has risen!]

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)

i think it's cool, and HHR is a faggot anyway

100 Jack Keane 2s.

 

[Alchemist]

Yeah this is going to take forever...

 

[Magellan]

Yeah this shit has slowed to a crawl

 

[Keshik]

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.

 

[mck]

There's only 82 copies of Jack Keane 2, better jump on that shit!

 

[sexbad?]

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

 

[ScottishMartialArts]

I got: Beyond Good and Evil, Psychonauts, Expedition: Conquistadors, Myst, and King of Dragon Pass. Now I have even more games I'll never get around to playing!

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.

 

[a bear named spigot]

Someone find Judas and make him do something about this.

 

[ScottishMartialArts]

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

 

[zwanzig_zwoelf]

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.

 

[Alchemist]

There should be fail-safe override somewhere when stuff just isn't selling.

 

[grudgebringer]

everybody write positive reviews for Jack Keane 2

 

[XenomorphII]

How long has it been stuck on that? 2 hrs?

 

[Name]

Make them free.

 

[grudgebringer]

Yea, like 2 hours by now, also 40 pages on forum and a bunch of hilarious reviews giving it 5 of 5 stars and 'citizen kane of games' status
