The problem with reviewing 3.0 core, which has been suggested earlier in thread, is the sheer volume that would entail (though people could do it in pairs, with a pair per book, and it wouldn't be too horrible to undertake compared to some of the other books people have done in pairs, but the other issue is familiarity and rehashing.
That said, I think it would be hilarious to review MM with Koumei, if our schedules allowed.

Ok, so this is a bit like asking someone to throw themselves on a live grenade, but Little Fears sounds really cool. But apparently is really horrible. It's 13 years old (it's actually too old to be a protagonist in itself, hilariously). Anyone want to do an OSSR?

Super tempted to do a N-OSSR (new old school sourcebook review) in celebration of 5e's return to the bad old days. Specifically an entry by entry walk through of the Monster Manual.
I finished reading it a few nights ago and don't think there were more than 10 (wild guess) monsters that didn't piss me off. Assuming you don't apply "Bonded accuracy is terrible" as a mark against each one individually.
Any interest in that, or should I let it go 10 more years? (or let someone cooler and funnier do it)

Meh, go for it. Just remember, there are two forms of review here- drunk rantviews, and OSSRs. Just make it the former.

I'll take a stab at the 3.0 PHB, in the perspective of a new upgrade to AD&D 2nd and the BD&D Rules Cyclopedia. If that goes well, the DMG and MM should be a breeze.
I should really finish some of my earlier works, but you know, Mike Mearls gets paid to drop stuff and start over, so meh.

I'd love to see Ancient History and Frank throw down and review the Ars Magica 5E core book, since it's about 10 years old now

I request the Cyberpunk 2020? Tabletop RPG (whatever ones people would play and be most applicable), since It's been on mind lately thanks to a single image from Red Rob ways back (The Dragoon walking tank).
What I find wrong w/ 4th edition: "I want to stab dragons the size of a small keep with skin like supple adamantine and command over time and space to death with my longsword in head to head combat, but I want to be totally within realistic capabilities of a real human being!" --Caedrus mocking 4rries
