In order of how long I've played:

Battletech (12ish years)
D&D 2e, 3e, 3.5e (9ish years between all the editions)
Pathfinder (Loooooveeee iiiiit) (recent)
D20 Modern zombie thing. I don't actually know. I think the DM kitbashed a bunch of things? (only one campaign)

Just going to start SR in the next couple of weeks. I've done a session or two in all sorts of things (Deadlands, Savage Worlds, Octane...) that I just didn't click with, always wanted to play Vampire and Changeling but can't seem to find a real group for it.

While SR is my favorite game, I am a HUGS Battletech fan (seeing how I found this place while on their forum), and am a recent convert to Pathfinder.
Why in the frag did they put ME in charge?

 Call of Cthulhu, definitely. 
 Paranoia, especially the newer "Straight" rules that proved once and for all it *can* be played other than a beer-and-pretzel game (not that there's anything wrong with those types of games). 
  DnD is the pace car of roleplaying and my current regular gig, but setting-wise I'm always about Greyhawk and Planescape.
  Deadlands.
  The late, lamented TORG.

I've never played Rifts.  Though I did play Palladium a few times.  My friends feared my Ogre Assassin/Necromancer.   ;D

And I like how everyone lists what Editions of D&D they like, typically stopping at 3.5.  It amuses me.

*pokes Doomy*

I have Call of Cthulu. And want to play it. And Dad could probably re-write the campaign he had started if he doesn't have it saved somewhere pretty quickly. And Dad wants to play it. And I could probably recruit some of my other friends.

One scratched off that list?

i picked up the trail of cthulhu and dresden books at gencon this year and they book look very, very promising. i think the deadlands campaign i played in about a year ago was hands down the funnest campaign i ran in. its a good time. highly recommend it if you havent played.

I actually got to play one session of the adventure out of the GM book, before our GM decided he didn't like running the system very much.

EDIT: I don't know how but i managed to forget to put Paranoia XP on that list

you play reloaded or classic, because classic is the way to go my friend, if you can get ahold of it.
