Gosh, I'm the black sheep of the glorious master race!
I really must upgrade my GPU (I'm still sticking to the MoBo's 790GX chipset with onboard Radeon HD3300 graphics), otherwise I won't be able to play The Witcher 2 even when it will get on top of my backlog!
I must also finish reinstalling Windows, adding for example an utility to assign CPU cores to programs, for those old games that don't like dual or more cores (doing it from the task manager each time after launch isn't practical, and some games don't like being interrupted by it anyway) and I had to download a GOG, DRM-free version of Thief III because I strongly suspect the DRM of my DVD version to be the culprit of messing up my CD and DVD drivers in an irreparable way, forcing me to reinstall Windows each time I tried to reinstall and play that game (I ruled out GPL, despite it having a buggy installer when it was launched, as official patches and user made mods, patches, enhancements and installers solved most problems long time ago and allow full installation on HDD, so after installing it optical drives aren't needed anymore). Curiously the game gave no problems on Windows 2000...
And on Linux I stopped playing Scorched3D after a stupid patch made it spamming levels in the Apocalypse mod with too many parachuted weapon and item crates, making the game lame and its economy totally useless. I hope some patch will eventually get it back to one or two crates per turn.
