** [[User:Tacitus]]: About the only thing I can nitpick about ''Haloid'' is that Samus' model is closer to her ''[[Super Smash Bros]]'' form than the ''Metroid Prime'' series. This doesn't really matter because a) all the asskicking going on makes it hard to notice and b) she doesn't spend the whole fight in it. Other than that, the video is ''mah''velous.

''[[Drunkard's Walk (Fanfic)]] ([http://www.accessdenied-rms.net/dwmain.shtml Drunkard's Walklink]'' by Robert M. Schroeck et. al.
* Recommended by [[User:Fast Eddie]], [[User:Vorticity]]
* ''Synopsis'': Colonel Douglas Sangnoir (codenamed "[[User:Looney Toons|Looney Toons]]") is a metahuman operative for the United Nations ejected from his home universe by enemy action. As he travels from timeline to timeline in search of his homeworld, he encounters universes that are homes to people and situations the reader may recognize from works of fiction, but which are unfamiliar to Doug. Now with its own [[Drunkard's Walk (Fanfic)|trope page!]]
* ''Status'': Two of the story cycles ("steps") are complete, and two more are in progress.
* ''Comments'': ''Drunkard's Walk'' is an [[Anime]] fanfic that has been chosen as "Best On The Web" on at least one occasion. It is by troper [[User:Looney Toons]] (along with [[Round Robin|various co-authors for several of the installments]]). It has spawned [http://drunkardswalkforums.yuku.com/ a discussion board] and [http://www.accessdenied-rms.net/dw-fics.shtml fanfics] ''of'' the fanfic. [[Web Original]].
 
''[[Undocumented Features (Fanfic)|Undocumented Features]] ([http://www.eyrie-productions.com/UF/ link]),'' a series created by [[Eyrie Productions Unlimited]].
* Recommended by [[User:Looney Toons]], [[User:Vorticity]]
* ''Pairings'': Many
* ''Synopsis:'' A sprawling [[Space Opera]] blending literally scores of sources into a single, remarkably coherent whole with several thousand years of internal history. Despite its scope, it excels at following the lives of individuals and the effect they have on the people around them. There is no single plot that can be summarized, as the project is composed of scores of individual stories, ranging from short to novel-length.
Line 291 ⟶ 289:
* ''Comments'': Easily one of the best crossover fics based off of fighting games. The interactions between fighters across the platforms are incredible, and the fight scenes are top-notch. Sadly, the fic [[Dead Fic|hasn't been continued in a while,]] and I only recently re-stumbled over it thanks to a webarchive site (which is where this story is hosted).
 
''[[http://shifti.org/Xanadu_<!-- 28setting29%28setting%29 The Xanadu Setting]]'' by several people -->
* Recommended by [[User:Joysweeper]] (who ''has'' written a few things in it, but is far from the only writer), [[User:Looney Toons]]
* ''Synopsis:'' At an enormous scifi/fantasy/furry costume convention set in a world that might as well be ours, all the costumes become real.
* ''Comments:'' It's advised to start with [[http://shifti.org/Xanadu_<!-- 28story29%8story% the first one]], but they're pretty self-contained. (One of the rules is that no author is to do anything that other authors ''have'' to reference, like burning down the convention center.) It tends to lean more [[FurryFandomFurry Fandom|furry than crossover]], but there are exceptions, and there's a nice lack of "OMG I'm my fursona!" stories. Some very well-done stories here. -->
** [[User:Looney Toons]]: Seconded. Disclaimer: For a while I was poised to enter this project by way of Ed Becerra's "Liquid Courage" plotline and its offshoots, but that was because I found the best-executed parts of this shared world to be very cool and very well done, and I wanted some. My intended participation is currently moribund, but I still check in on the project from time to time in the hopes that something new has shown up.
