My first game was Traveller, a couple of years after it first came out in '76. Later on, I got introduced to AD&D because of the dearth of interested Traveller players. Man, I miss those sessions...magical.

I, too, remember Boot Hill, Gamma World, and Top Secret (not SI). My first TS game was a real hoot - we all had James Bond knockoffs (independantly created). There was James Bond, Jane Bond, James Blonde, etc - no two names identical! [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

My favourites these days are Shadowrun and Wheel of Time (D20) ... I still play AD&D, but again because it's hard to find players that play anything else.
