Need something for generating and storing passwords, now that hacking is more sophisticated I feel I can't rely on my current system anymore.

</sarcasm> But to be honest, actually remembering what your passwords are is probably best, second best I would say would be to write them down, if someone manages to get inside your home and get a hold of that you have bigger problems  Sig by Joel |

Ideally my passwords would be random combinations of letters and numbers with a way of retrieving them.

I just make up words at random. Pretty difficult for anyone to guess them.

The way I used to do it was I had maybe half a dozen passwords and I'd use them based on how secure I thought the site was, as in I had one password for all the sites I didn't trust, one for all the ones I kinda trusted, one for the ones I trusted, etc. The problem I have is almost all my sites I trust about the same :-\ |

I'd go with the "write it down" option. It's what I did with my steam pass until I memorized it. 17 characters alphanumeric upper/lower case with special characters
<+Karrde> welp, time to learn some basic patterning skills <@Negate> 12121212121212121212 <@Negate> there is a simple pattern <+Karrde> I changed my mind. Gonna cosplay as a gay demon from hell and get negate raped instead XD <+Caffeine`work> Karrde: Gay demon? Why would you need to cosplay just go as yourself <+FlyingMongoose> Caffeine`work: Karrde would actually have to tone it down some. |
