Interesting topic!

First, the games I played a lot of.

BRP games:
RQ 2 and 3 for many, many years (in Glorantha and Questworld).
CoC, several adventures, needed a new character each time.

Non-BRP games:
D&D 3.0 and 3.5
Champions
ShadowRun
The Fantasy Trip (Wizards, Melee and Into the Labyrinth)

Other games that I played for a while, but not really a full campaign.

BRP:
Stormbringer 1
Ringworld

Non-BRP:
AD&D 1st (What I started playing RPGs with)
Vampire: The Masquerade
Fading Suns
Paranoia
Middle-Earth Role-Playing (MERP)
Fantasy Hero
Cyberpunk
Psi World
Palladium
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles RPG (Uh, well, I was in high school and well...)
Robotech RPG (Damn, this is embarassing...)

I'd better stop.

Seriously though, I have some of the original TMNT comics and graphic novels and I have the entire Robotech series on DVD. They were pretty cool when I was 15 or 16.

I have a ton of other games, some of which I played once or twice and some I ended up not playing at all. Won't bother to list them all.

I've played Candyland and Hi Ho! Cherry-O! recently.

How is Hi Ho! Cherry-O!? We've almost picked that up a couple of times - I think my daughter would like it.

BRP-related: 1920s CoC only, unfortunately. And that was many years ago.

Other stuff: GURPS (for ages). In these last years: EABA, Mythic roleplaying, Story Engine, Heroquest (well, the Questworlds draft; I was a playtester when the project began), Universalis.

Its okay. Simple counting game, very random. My son, Jack, liked it. He's three.

Downside is if you bump the board, cherries go rolling around everywhere and can be a pain to try to put back where they belong.

I bought both Rolemaster and Spacemaster and looked them over, but both systems seemed too complex and chart heavy for me.

I have played Ars Magica a couple times and it seemed pretty good, but no one was willing to put in the time to develop a campaign.

I own heaps of MERP supplements, and generally thought they were great, if a bit "un-Tolkieny" and overly real-world derived from time to time. Maps were super.

As far as the rules were concerned, they were fine in their own way - but I guess were just too un-Middle Earth for me to get into for Tolkien roleplaying, and for FRP I already had RQ going strong. I remember some amazing critical and fumble charts, though...

I like Rolemaster from reading it but havent had a chance to play it yet.

Our next campaign looks like it will be GURPS Traveller
