Pick Up Shoot Em Up

[changoo]

Looking for a good Pick Up game to use as a short break from my regular DnD 4e Game for a few sessions. I want to run them through something notably different from DnD, a Modern Day Grand Theft Auto/Quentin Tarantino/Whataver inspired Shoot Em Up. Because the group is most familiar with 4e I want a game that...

- Is quick on the character creation (1/2 Hour Maximum to create a character)
- Is low on the Meta-Game Elements (No FATE System please)
- Isn't Savage Worlds (I'm already considering it, just seeing if there are any alternatives)

Got anything for me?

I have not seen the modern version, but I liked the western game "Sixgun" from Deep7. I think they have something that fits your need:

Full Clip - Deep7 | RPGNow.com

or all their product:

RPGNow.com - Deep7 - The leading source for indie RPGs

Buy it through the ENWorld store links though

Festivus, you beat me to the punch. I was going to suggest Full Clip!

In Full Clip I think there are five pre-made adventures too.

Feng Shui seems to fit well. (From Atlas Games, direct link to main product page: Atlas Games: Charting New Realms of Imagination )

A fast paced games with Hong Kong action movies as the inherrent setting. Fokus on cinematics (naturally) and story (in an action movie way).

Has pregenerated characters playable in 5 minutes, templates which can be finished in 15 minutes.

(And this is where I state that I am a member of Atlas Games' Special Operations group who demo games for Atlas, but I'm not paid to talk about their games.)
