Starlet: The Fadening™. A storytelling game about the futility of fame and popularity. Your character starts with 10 Starlet™ points, and immediately begins her inevitable slide back into irrelevance. You can temporarily recover your Starlet™ points with juicy scandals (nipple slip, sex tape, adopting a new corgi, unwanted pregnancy, drug clinic, vomiting video), but this irrevocably decreasesyour maximal Starlet™ rating. After a time, nobody gives a damn about you any longer and you end up broke and forgotten, The End.
There is also a version for men titled The Boy Sensation™, which plays the same as Starlet™, but has slightly different events (developing a paunch, attacking a reporter, getting arrested, caught crying and blabbering incoherently while drunk, drunken car crash killing innocents), and of course you have to buy it separately.
Rocky The RPG: Where each adventure creates the feel of a film in the Rocky Series- complete with aptly named antagonists and domestic complications. Each player gets to take on the role of one character from the movies: Adrian, Paulie, Rocky, and even Tony Gazzo. Introduces the Montage Mechanic and boxing combat rules for maximum Rocky Flavor.
Forgetting the Names of Your Children in the Endless Twilight Years: this storygame addresses the theme of mental and physical degeneration as the players take narrative control over Gaiman-esque godlings who suffer from advanced dementia.

Well, I was going to say Harry Potter: The RPG but then I remembered seeing this (http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/322937-harry-potter-game.html) over on ENWorld. Sorry? What was I doing on the ENworld forum? Oh I, er, I was just, er... [creeps quietly away]
Tiny Hats, Big Dicks...the erotic "finger puppet" adult RPG
TaxMaster: build a character from one of 27 Tax Agent subclasses, each with detailed skill category modifiers in many exciting skills such as Spot Deduction, Offshore Funds, Primary Production Discount, Its A Business Expense, Find Loophole, and Friends In The IRS! LARP through assisting the GM with their income tax, then file your character sheet away for several months before earning XP equal to the GMs total refund!
Uses a novel additive d1000 mechanic where your total modifier is reduced as you go up each results bracket.
Anything based on the premise that what would make for a good television drama, feature film, comic book or written work would also make for a good TRPG- especially if it's not focus on action/adventure and has no powers or gear that lets PCs supercede ordinary, everyday results. (You run into the Decker Problem, and that's assuming that you give a fuck about this at all.)
Hungry Hungry Hippodrome Games: gladiators compete in deadly combat sports within a massive stone arena in a desperate race to avoid being fed to carnivorous chariot-pulling hippos as the ultimate punishment for failing to appease their bloodthirsty audience.

Rocky the RPG is serious game that forces its players to handle the deeply philosophical themes of the series. Including characters from a morning cartoon show that happens to have a similar name would not only be incoherent, but would violate our licensing agreement with Mr. Stallone.

Forum: The Banning
Gain XP points for the amount of reports you submit against other people. Bonus XP for trolling. People with more XP have their opinions count more than people with low XP as defined by the "protected long time poster" feat, and therefore get 1d6 free passes (x2 if the poster and moderators are fanboys of the same version of a game).
x2 XP accumulation if you create cross-board drama, with an additional +500 XP for invoking Hypocrisy of Pelor. Such qualifying phrases include talking about people on another forum while at the same time saying you don't care about people from another forum.
Once you achieve epic levels (aka: becoming a MOD), you will lose 1d6 XP per day for your first year unless you warn or ban the same number of people that you would lose XP for per day.
Chargen is easy. If you get banned, just create a sock puppet and start over at level 1*.
*warning: this is only for the hardcore gamer, as there is risk involved and you could very well lose the game permanently (getting IP banned). If you lose the game permanently, you might as well kill yo self.
** And for the record, I am not singling out any particular forum, but the trend of most gamer forums. So you can stop with your accusations and save yourself some time. ;)

heh! Rocky and Bulwinkle staring Sylvester Stallone could be a brilliant buddy comedy.

That was obviously before Rocky became a boxer.
A horror/fantasy/adult genre mash-up based on three timeless RPG classics:
Vampyre of the F@T@L ThroneSpoiler
Yes, that's Vampire, Empire of the Petal Throne, and FATAL. Just shoot me.
I have to say it:
Ponylance- Ponies of Glory
Call of Cthulhu 2
You play a disgruntled call centre worker taking a call from a certain Mr Cthulhu. Mr Cthulhu is very disgruntled with the quality of his broadband service and is threatening to move his business to another provider. Can you persuade him to stay and avoid another telling off from your line manager?
Babylon 3
You play ambassadors, soldiers, wanderers, etc, on a space station that has just been created to bring about peace in our time. At the end of the first session the station blows up and all the characters are killed.
MERP (Middle East Role Playing)
One of the player characters is a dictator and the others are his lieutenants, advisors, wives, and general hangers on. The people are demanding better treatment and democratic elections. How will you respond to this? (game rules include a 200 page combat and torture chapter!).
