I play a sh*tload of other games. The ones I think that can 
overlap with the UA niche are Mage (for the modern occult 
stuff), Over the Edge (for the surreal, pomo style and the 
loose character creation rules), Kult (for the 
whole "become something more" race) and Cthulhu (obvious). 
The thing I love with UA is that reversal of values: in 
Kult, CoC or Mage, horror comes from your lack of power and 
influence; horror in UA comes from your overwelming 
responsability.

Other games I play or have played and/or mastered: 
Shadowrun, Starwars (WEG), Runequest and (now) Herowars, 
James Bond, Aberrant, DC Heroes, In nomine satanis/magna 
veritas (the original french version), Feng Shui, IOU (with 
OtE rules), Ghostbusters, Deadlands (both weird and wasted 
wests), Brave new world, Ars magica, MeGa (an old french 
game, mastered by a sadistic GM), Star Trek (both original 
and next gen), Warhammer FRS, Legend of the Five Rings, D&D 
(the red box and a little bit of Advanced and 3e), Agone, 
Fading Suns, Mechwarrior (once, the more boring rpg game 
i've ever played), Nephilim, Immortal, Vampire and Werewolf.

For what I recall.

My group likes to experiment, as you can see. From these 
games, some has been one shots, other small campaigns, and 
a few are long term campaigns still running (mainly JB007, 
Shadowrun and Runequest/herowars, with the occasionnaly 
Star Trek). We tend to game once or twice a week, wich may 
explain the large number of games.
