I've loved XCrawl pretty much since it came out.
People seem to either really like the fluff, or hate it; I am in the former camp. The Fluff is written so well that virtually any "tone" you want to impart to your game is supported...
D&D as Pro Wrestling? Check.
Religious/Political Intrigue? Check.
Behind the scenes life of Media Stars? Check.
Straight Up Dungeon Crawling? Check.
The game is a ton of fun, we got a lot of use out of the Sellout supplement, but I'm not sure it would be needed for everyone's game.
One thing though is that prepared adventures are pretty important. With a lot of D&D I can just make it up on the fly...not so with XCrawl.
