These old games are the bomb.

Much of the rating of and discussion about games on this site focusses on rather academic comparisons of mechanics, logic, metastories, etc. and misses the importance of being fun to play.

AD+D, original Gamma World and Boot Hill, and Classic Traveller are all bad jokes in the sterilized world of game critique, but are enormously fun to play and, to me at least, feel fresher, and are easier and more interesting that virtually anything on the market.
