The original creators of GW have NOTHING to do with the current edition.3. Not really a hardcore of 1st edition players, but a lot of 3rd and 4th edition players out there, and also a strong contingent of Omega World fanatics (like me), who feel that the current edition of GW is apalling and NOT Gamma World at all.4.  3rd and 4th editions are both good, having systems that will appeal to different groups of people. Omega World is D20.  Setting wise, any of these three are the "real" GW.  5th edition and the current version by Bruce Baugh are in settings so different that they can't really (IMO) be considered Gamma World.  Why they chose to steal the GW name for these settings rather than let their post-apocalyptic settings stand or fall on their own merit without having to try to use brand recognition disingenously is beyond me.5. No Idea.6. My brother is a big SF fan. He says its good. Then again, he's 18 and thinks pop-punk, big pants, and living in your parent's basement are all "good", so take his opinions for what they're worth.Nisarg</blockquote>
