Pulp games

There's something wrong with Pulp, but I can't put my finger on it. It sure seems like a lot of gamers want to play in the Pulp genre, and a number of groups have responded. Early on we had Mercenaries, Spies, and Private Eyes from Flying Buffalo. ICE weighed in with a Pulp Adventure supplement to Rolemaster. White Wolf's Adventure! is an excellent game. For d20 there is Forgotten Kingdoms. FUDGE brings us Terra Incognita. The web community gave us Pulp Era (by James Carpio, Jon Richardson, and Jared A. Sorensen) and Two Fisted Tales, both now pulled prior to non-virtual publication.
All good games.
But not a one inspires the gamer's glint and die-roller's twitch.
Anyone else feel like pulp gaming is missing... something?
Until we find it, Feng Shui seems to have captured as much pulp goodness as martial arts madness. Bring on the mooks!
