Reading your review of the new edition of S&W just reminds me of why I like RPGs in the first place. S&W was my first retro-clone, over a decade ago (oh my). And my only reason for dabbling in the OSR was because of its zine culture (and feeling burnt by WotC® D&D™). My shelf is filled with a ton of the DnD-alikes that truly are "good enough" if not great.
