Gurps...some terrific sourcebooks. Steampunk, for example. But this "What is GURPs" thread has got me thinking...d20 is already the most widely-played system in the world, I'd wager. I would dearly love to run some of these quirky campaigns from the GURPS library, but I don't dig the system at all.
So, with all due respect to GURPS fans and SJG, I want to put this out on the table: with d20 Modern, most of the tools will be in place for a universal gaming system with greater popularity, greater playability, and more diverse resources than any which have come before. And I hope five years from now d20 gamers have the full spectrum of choices currently enjoyed by GURPers, combined with the easy-drinking goodness of d20.
