Resolved Question: Whats a good starter rpg for new players other than Dungeons and Dragons?



   I am about to start a game with two new players and was planning a Dungeons and Dragons game, however I abhor the new 4.0 mechanics and feel it would be counter productive to teach them legacy game mechanics.  Are there any other games currently out that are well suited for new players?

I would start with AD&D the original rules.  You can get into the game and then if you want to switch to the core 4 rules then think about doing it then.

Yes I agree the old D&D rules really are the easiest to get started and can be modified to make it even easier.
