I have played: OD&D (and Delving Deeper), Holmes D&D (and Grey Book and Swords and Wizardry), B/X D&D (and ACKS, Labyrinth Lord, and BFRPG), Rules Compendium D&D, 1E AD&D (and OSRIC), 2E AD&D, 3E D&D, 3.5 D&D, 4e D&D, the playtest for 5e D&D, Castles and Crusades, that same Indiana Jones PnP RPG (the one TSR made, I don't remember the name off the top of my head), Mutants and Masterminds, TSR Marvel Superheroes, Smallville, d20 Modern, d20 Star Wars, d20 Call of Cthulhu, GURPS Alpha Centauri, GURPS Fantasy (never again!), Shadowrun 3e, Shadowrun Anniversary, Shadowrun 5e, Vampire the Masquerade Revised, New World of Darkness, Blue Rose, Last Unicorn Star Trek The Next Generation, Far Trek, Gamma World 7e (the one based on D&D 4e), Pendragon 5e, Arcana Evolved, Bunnies and Burrows 2e, Thrash, WWE Know Your Role, Wild World Wrestling, and Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space.

I think that's everything.

Oh, and I haven't yet played but want to play: Misspent Youth, Monsterhearts, Retrocalypse, Barbarians of Lemuria/the Aftermath, Starships and Spacemen, and... I forget the name, but there was this baseball-themed system I thought was kind of a cool idea.

Yeah. That's one impressive list. I don't know anyone else who's played that many RPGs.

I've played: D&D, AD&D, 3.5, CJ Carella's WitchCraft, Marvel Super Heroes, In Nomine Satanis/Magna Veritas, Aquelarre, Thrash, Dominion and one game system I made. I tend to avoid similar systems if I can.

I've GMed:

BX D&D (1981)
1E AD&D
2E AD&D (but no splatbooks)
Villains & Vigilantes
Marvel Super Heroes (Advanced and Basic both)
Ringworld
SwordBearer (really cool game, kind of brings its own world with it)
Lords of Creation
Arcanum (the one by Bard Games; 1st and 2nd editions; best alchemy rules around)
Talislanta (the original version)
Buck Rogers XXVc

Plus a handful of my own games, including the original Realms of Wonder, Project 74, and of course BFRPG and TSGS.

At least, I think that's the whole list. I've played a few not on the list above, like Twilight: 2000 (yay violence).

Oh, yeah, and Toon. I totally ran that game... but an old girlfriend absconded with the rules, and trust me, it would not have been worth it to try to get them back.

That was a long time ago. Wow.

This is a little off subject but since everyone is listing all the rpg games they've played maybe amongst you all someone could tell me the best rpg game that doesn't have leveling incorporated in it be it experience level or skill level. No leveling at all. Are there any or did I come up with a novel idea?

There ara lots and lots of game system without leveling, class and all that, it depend on what you want to play.
Rolemaster if want a gritty fantasy or HARP for a simplified system.
RuneQuest or Leyend.
The Riddle of Steel if you want detailed combats.
GURPS if you want a generic system.
And the list goes on and on an on...

Ok let me be more specific:

I have two players that will be able to play every week. I have another player that will only be able to play every few weeks due to their job. Because of this I don't want a game that has levels in it or skills that can be improved over time because I don't want the player that can't play every week to be left behind. I need to find or develop an rpg where character stats and skill remain static over time. There are other things the players can strive for if necessary.

Ok, there are games like that, but I never encountered one that I like it, you can use whatever game you like and not give xp, but must remember to maintain the opponents on a set level as to not use opponents made to be fought with specified high levels or high skills.
