<confused look>

Uh... I don't think too many of us believe that all action games are also 
RPG games. Games like HM:FAKK2, Kiss Psycho Circus, Soldier of Fortune, 
Voyager: Elite Force, Unreal Tournament, Quake 3, etc. are pure action.

Of course, some of us thing games like Thief, Deus Ex, or System Shock 2 
are RPG's, or at least, RPG/Action hybrids. But those are the exceptions, 
not the rule.
