Gamma World.
5 RPGs-
GURPS with ALL the supplemental books.
Hero 5th ed. with any supplements there are.
Gamma World.

My own homebrewed game.

5 Books?
1) HERO 5Ed
2) Deadlands
3) Arcana Evolved
4) Traveller
5) Space: 1889
AE would be my 1 book D&D substitute. Deadlands & Traveller stand up on their own, Space: 1889 is simply a very rich setting, easily as imaginative as RIFTS, but with better mechanics. Any other genre of gaming, I'd run with HERO.
Not that I couldn't run any of those in HERO (because I have), but that's beside the point.

HelloChristian
First Post
I've really enjoyed reading all of your lists.
Here's mine
D&D 3.5 A solid fantasy rpg and an excellent incarnation of D&D
GURPS 4e A good anything rpg. Love the DIY toolkit
Star Frontiers Such a fun space opera game
Labyrinth Lord A rules-light fantasy rpg in the old school vein
Lord of Fantasy I just bought it, haven't played it, but damn it looks cool.
