nah, it's this gen, but the PS2 did have plenty. still wouldn't really count Sly Cooper or Jak for action games as they're primarily platformers (while R&C is definitely more of a shooter AND it has two PS3 games too), and you forgot Ninja Gaiden. though with that said, NG can be gotten on PS3 and 360, Bayonetta exists, and all 3 systems have their bigger games in the genre. also on Hulk - Prototype is pretty much its spiritual sequel.
when you throw in the fact that DS and PSP both are also this gen, it's no contest. Castlevanias on the DS, Ys on the PSP being the two best series for each.
