Do some games come up more often than others for sure? I've been waiting for Summoner and Shattered Haven to come up again (I missed them the other day, the once I've seen them up at all)... but I keep seeing other games coming up constantly.

Phc7006: MOO3 is a fine substitute for SAP Modules R/3, easier to setup on a modern system and cheaper.
IAmSinistar: HA HA HA, oh man, that's great! I think I made the right decision to avoid this one then. :D compared to MOO2 the interface has more controls that have in sum less effect and you get less feedback. Plus you have less choice (and need more luck). Plus it has far better automation, hence the "just click end turn until victory strategy"... which *surprise* doesn't work against human players :-) ...

I am looking at some crowd funding site and stumble on this.
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/world-war-machine-a-post-human-action-rpg/x/7986795
http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2014-05-19-square-enixs-collective-launches-first-crowdfunding-campaign
I can't believe this! a publisher using some developers to crowd-fund their games!!!!!!
Well based on this anti consumer practice
http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/04/16/square-enix-drm-essential-to-profits-for-foreseeable-future
I have to make sure Square Enix does not get any profit from me.

I hesitated the first few times Primordia came up, but now after I've decided I want to go for it, it hasn't come up. Regardless, I have a pretty good haul that will keep me busy for a while.

bernstein82: well it's not THAT bad... for me it actually played a lot like MOO2 (it just isn't as good)... .
Well, for me it's above all a question of user interface. I always felt this was the closest equivalent : http://twimgs.com/ddj/newarchitectmag/images/new1017793414702/1.jpg :-p But then the gameplay isn't very satisfactory either. Whenever I played it at some length - and I tried a few times as I have the boxed version and a download at hand - and each time soon got the impression of a game massively unbalanced, or unfinished, and then came frustration. By comparison, I enjoyed Space Empires III and IV , and even Endless Space...

This current promotion has been so much easier than the insomnia sales. At least I can get a couple of hours sleep and still not miss any sales. The intensity level and frantic nature of the insomnia sales is missing though. The entire GOG community/fanbase spread out over the many GOG related sites and threads over internet all were sharing in a mutually painful and yet rewarding event. Waiting for Jack Keane 2 was just awful, commiserating about it as a community wasn't though. I think I'm psychotic, I can't let these sales go. Its like the most addictive kind of PC game: just one more..gotta buy just one more... Oh no, I can't find my tranquilizers, WHERE ARE MY TRANQUILIZERS?!!!!
I also think I am willing to buy more due to the limited number of copies available for each game and the first come first served nature of the sales. If I have time to think about things I tend to rationalize away purchases of games that aren't exactly AAA titles whereas I would impulse buy more with a rapidly dropping counter for available games running. I also tend to stick closer to my budget during slower sales.

Stilton: I totally agree. The sedate pace of this sale (once I shook off my 'Insomnia-mode' impatience/expectation) has made it a very different experience. I'm keeping a list of purchases, I'm considering each purchase a lot more and I'm actually SLEEPING! A very pleasant alternative to sitting bug-eyed in front of the monitor for hours/days on end for fear of missing out on the next game I might want. There's no feeling of being chased by an avalanche with this one which makes it enjoyable in a calmer, less frenetic way.
But the impulse buys is the place where is all the fun belongs. I bought so far only 16 games in first days and didn't buy anything at All Bundles day because I convinced myself that my backlog is huge enough (only 130 titles comparing with quantities posted above in the thread) and I should play/replay those games firstly, and I can wait until XMas Sale (with all discounts right now it's insanity to wait sooo long! :) and I even make a threshold for myself - no more than 5 games per month (rare exceptions like Witcher 3 approved) but I sure if..no WHEN will be THE MIGHTY FALL INSOMNIA SALE !! all those rules can pack up and go to hell for sure :)bernstein82

is it just me or does this "all bundles on one day" reduce the summer sale to one big frenzy sale day?
...waited till yesterday and bought all bundles i wanted, plus most of the flash sales i'm interested in...
insomnia sale was a much greater ordeal... and fun :-)

Now it looks like just boring ordinary sale that everyone has. Take a small shitload of cash, wait for one specific day and buy everything you planned. I'm not complaining but GOG raised the bar high with all those events around the year
