August 12th) Which RPG has the most inspiring interior art?

Art is very subjective, and I feel like this could easily be broken out by genre at the very least. For Fantasy games I LOVE LOVE LOVE the art in Monte Cook Games' Gods of the Fall. It's epic and dynamic and gorgeous, and it's not western European inspired. For Sci-Fi games it's hard to not look at FFG's Star Wars games, but I think I'm going to point my finger towards Goodman Games' forthcoming Mutant Crawl Classics. I've got the backer PDF and the art inside is old school cool in all the best ways.

August 11th) Which ‘dead game’ would you like to see reborn?

Hmm. Dead game is a weird term. I guess that means a game that is out of print and doesn't see active publishing of supplements? Well one of my all time favorite game settings is Nightbane from Palladium. I doubt they consider it dead, but I don't recall the last time I saw anything new for it. I'm really not a fan of Palladium's house system anymore so I'd love to see somebody buy that up and redo it in a new custom setting, or possibly adapt it to one of the better systems out there.

I also have incredibly fond memories of the TMNT and Other Strangeness RPG from Palladium. It seems a no brainer for some RPG company to get that IP and create a whole new game that embraces the full gamut of the strangeness of the comics, movies, and TV shows.

August 10th) Where do you go for RPG reviews?
I find reviews crop up in my Google+ stream with enough frequency that I don't need to seek them out. On occasion that I do I usually just Google the product in question or check DriveThru RPG.

Uhh ... that was quick, sorry.

B-b-b-bonus question! Largest in-game surprise you have experienced?

Since this was last years August 10 question I'll answer only within the past year's worth of gaming. I think the largest in game surprise of my past year came from a relatively recent session of Dungeon Crawl Classics run by +James Walls for his monthly Sunken City tour. THE Free Company (yes, it's a terrible name, and yes THE has to be all caps) had just banished the Mist Men from the area around Slither's End. Triumphant we headed back to town to get our just rewards and find the next line of investigation/plot hook. Instead we found that we were hundreds of years in the future and my retired psychic (and God-mayor of Slither's End) had become a God-Emperor and apparent benevolent tyrant over the countryside. While I knew James was planning something with my former PC around getting the remaining players to the Purple Planet the idyllic countryside and time jump were rather surprising.
