Which pulp adventure-style RPG's are out there now?

[Goodsport]

There apparently is a Heroic Pulp Online game called Lost Continents in the works.

Unfortunately, the game is now apparently officially dead.

There's a YouTube summation of what would've/could've been here.

Man, that would've been the MMORPG for me (and, to my knowledge, the first to introduce what we now know as "instancing")! But alas...

Don't forget that the next Indiana Jones movie is scheduled to hit theaters either in 2004 or (more likely) 2005.

Ironically, though, the movie will most likely take place in the late 1940's or early 1950's.

Okay, so I was 3-4 years off with the movie's premiere and it'll take place in the late 1950's (most likely 1957).

Nonetheless, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is scheduled to hit theaters on Thursday, May 22, 2008.

If the upcoming Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (Friday, May 22) wasn't enough cinematic Pulp Adventure inspiration for 2008, there's also The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (the third film in The Mummy series starring Brendan Fraser) scheduled for theaters on Friday, August 1, as well as The Scorpion King: Rise of the Akkadian (prequel to 2002's The Scorpion King, itself a prequel spinoff from The Mummy Returns) direct to DVD sometime in 2008.

Savage Worlds is a generic system that is designed to work well with pulp settings.

And it does!

For my Pulp games I look towards Spirit of the Century and Hollow Earth Expedition. And I use Pulp Hero as a great introduction to what pulp is to help out the players understand the genre.

Justice, Inc. is still the coolest game ever written and is very, very playable -- the only problem is FINDING a copy. Its most recent descendant is Pulp HERO, which uses the current edition of the HERO System, but doesn't have anything near the production values.
