GoG is having another Insomnia Sale, where a select game is put on sale for a often very limited run (some for only 25 copies).  What really makes it fun (and stressful) is how they mix in free stuff with the sales, but also how you never know when the game you want will be on sale.  Good luck everyone!

What is GoG? Is it like Steam?

They specialize in creating versions of older games that are supported on new hardware, including customizing/hacking installers and drivers. I remember hearing that it took them 18 months to get Baldur's Gate up and running.

GoG is having their Summer Sale.  Pretty much everything is at least 50% off, with daily bundle deals as well as "Flash" sales that tend to run only a few hours.  Seems like a great way to pick up some Indie as well as some great classic PC games.  The current bundles are RollerCoaster Tycoon 1-3 for $8.97 USD and the D&D Masterset (all D&D games on GoG) for $21.10.  Personally, I've got my eyes on every Ultima game (including the Underworld games), the Starflight games, and Might and Magic 1-6, all currently 50% off.
