Well, yes, though there's a selection effort there; you're more likely to play GURPS if you like the way GURPS plays.

Side Note: I actually rather like GURPS combat for some genres, but it's a taste I don't really see my players matching. Then again, I think I've run more TPKs than the rest of the people I've played with put together.
