Great list. Haven't played any of them, but maybe I will see if I can find copies of them. So I can check out the past of RPG games.

I had and played more than half of these, but I'd swap 'em all for Empire of the Petal Throne.

Empire of the Petal Throne is very interesting, but I didn't want to overly weigh TSR games. That's the only reason I left it out.

Great list. Own, run, and played all of them.

Excellent List. I own a bunch of them, but have played around or gotten to look at most of them. Empire of the Petal Throne is a great suggestion, but I see why you might overlook it. That box set, for the era, has some of the most beautiful map work.

Fantastic article

Two significant omissions :

Chivalry and Sorcery - An authentic and realistic medieval RPG.

Metamorphosis Alpha - the first 'Gonzo' Sci-Fi RPG.
