Anyone who's still reading Gamebooks?

Steve Jackson, Ian Livingstone, JH Brennan...

If you brought back some nightmarish memories, go to >>2 and  post something.
If you've never heard of those names, go to >>14 immediately.

I once played a gamebook I found in the library. It was ok, a bit more involving than a choose your own adventure book. Sadly I've forgotten the title. I do remember that it had a fairly detailed backpack inventory system, and you had access to modern firearms.

I found this while looking for it: http://www.projectaon.org/
Full gamebooks of the Lone Wolf series, playble on a browser! And a stat monitor to keep track of your stuff without a pen and paper! http://www.projectaon.org/statskeeper/

Mmmm gamebooks. The best thing to do when you can't go play D&D. I still have my Lone Wolf stuff around somewhere.

Holy fuck thank you!

I used to read those all the time.  I discovered Choose Your Own Adventure books in 2nd grade, and read gamebooks up through... 7th grade or so?  I still have quite a few of them.  My favorites were the Fighting Fantasy series.  Grail Quest was really great too, but there weren't as many of them... I still have some of my Lone Wolf books.  I actually preferred World of Lone Wolf, but that site only seems to have three of the four volumes...

Gamebooks are about as dead as God himself.

OP here. Way to bump my old as shit thread to say that.
