There is one official 'Rift' game based on Feist's works that I know of, too. A number of games draw on elements of Moorcock's work (several lame muds are named after parts, probably because the gods thought Stormbringer was a cool sword!), but I know of none solely based upon any of his books. Of course, series wise, Star Wreck is ludicrously popular, and there are several B5 games (although I have the dubious accolade of having started the very first one). The World of darkness RPG system is also ridiculously popular (although quite a good system), with some 70 odd games based in various parts of it around. There are at least a handful of Star Wars games, and at one point there was a game based around the Narnia Chronicles. Thats all which actually leaps to mind - although I may attempt publishing some of the stuff I'm writing for Caffeine at some point. Who knows.
