    Gradius V. Raw nerve and reflex. is katamari really an action game? i consider it more of a puzzler, or collection adventure.. I really can't consider something to be action when there's nothing to kill.

    Megaman X8. Easily one of the best games in the series. It's nice to see that I'm not the only one who voted for it, either.

    GRAY. DEE. US. FIVE. No contest... actually, Neo Contra comes very close, but I gotta give my preference to the most innovative Gradius since Gaiden. Can Katamari Damacy be considered an action game, though?

    Well, if Katamari is indeed Action, that's my choice.

    GTA: SA; sorry, nothing else even comes close.

    I voted for GTA: SA. An entire state of playfield to run around in and quite a lot of cool stuff to do.

    Check out the new N64 Rumble Pak. See how it feels to feel what you see.

    I really dont think Katamari belongs here. I LOVE that game, got it release day, but action game, it is not.

    That said, I picked GTA:SA

    Ninja Gaiden easily. I just can't get enough of all the great moves and kick ass enemies.

    I voted for Gradius V. Shooters (whether first-person or schmup) are the quintessential definition of an action game.

    And I agree that KD doesn't belong in this list.
