Terminator: Future Shock, Wizardry 8, Terraria, FEAR (the first one), Gothic, Gothic 2, Gothic 2: Night of the Raven, Gothic 3, S.T.A.L.K.E.R- Shadow of Chernobyl / Clear Sky / Call of Pripyat, Shadow Warrior.

Yes except for Terraria, the Gothic Series, Wizardry and the last two Stalker games.

I had all of the Wizardry games but they get stolen by my mom's methhead ex-boyfriend. Later on I found out he sold them to a guy who tried to play them on his XBox (original one) and couldn't, so the guy turned him into the cops.

Meth is a hell of a drug.
Okay then. As for Wizardry, are the cops keeping it as evidence? Also did the guy who gotten the games on some kind of substance when he tried to run them on the Xbox?

The cops aren't keeping it as evidence because the guy that had the games either sold them or the cops never thought to take them from him. That, or the cops just didn't search his house.

Also, yeah, both of them were on meth. If you live in Southern Idaho you're either not doing drugs or you're doing meth.
 
I got a second 1080p monitor so I decided to post my desktop again

Unfortunately it's now too big for preview to show my icons

I've got two monitors. One 720p and one... fuck I don't know.

My desktop background is still better than yours.

BTW are you still using windows?
My setup is Windows 7 64 bit. It just uses a custom Windows 7 theme and a pair of Ubuntu wallpapers strung together. I was tempted to use a theme that made it resemble Windows XP but I think this does nicely. I really don't like default Aero, it makes the operating system look a little cheap.

I like the ghetto look of Aero. I like the way Win98 looks better though.

I like dark desktop backgrounds because they save energy. I like to be environmentally friendly!

I also like a desktop that isn't too cluttered.

Lol Sims 3 being the only game on there

I like wallpapers that are full of color myself, to brighten my day up essentially.
 
No desktop wallpaper can be said to be True Art™ unless you wrote the program yourself. I present herein some True Art™. I'm running Windows 8.1 and it'll change wallpapers for you at intervals (mine is set to one day per pic). To keep from getting bored I have a buttload of stuff in the hopper, including but not limited to these two. After pulling up one of the linkies, you may have to click on various magnifying-glass icons (or you may not, there's no telling) but if you click enough, eventually it'll give up and show it in its original resolution (known among computer graphics professionals as "kind of big"), just like on me desktop. No, i don't show any icons normally; I put stuff on the taskbar or (worst-case) do a "view desktop icons." Photobucket use to stomp hell out of anything bigger than 1024 pixels across or thereabouts, it's refreshing to see them finally hosting images in their original size (sure, you have to hold your mouth just right when uploading to get it to work, but still a huge improvement).

Wallpaper the first: Fractional Brownian motion by midpoint displacement in two dimensions, with gratuitous details included for scientific drama purposes. The surface's fractional dimension (formally "Hausdorff-Besicovich dimension", but usually just called "fractal dimension") is about 2.16, and there's a power-law scaling applied for extra science drama. The image took maybe fifteen seconds to generate and render, except for the bird-thingy. That's an iterated function system (IFS) and took for-freaking-ever, like 45 minutes.

Wallpaper the second: A quaternion IFS that wound up looking sort of like the bastard offspring of a Sierpinski gasket and an icosahedron. The object itself is four dimensional, what you see is the part where it intersects the 3-D origin. Great fun at parties.

You're Welcome. =s
