Dude, there are so many fictional universes that make our own real universe look like S**T in comparison.

My personal list:


Some Awesome Universes:
-Mass Effect (Get to throw stuff around as a biotic, hack into advanced robots as a engineer, or plow through enemies with raw firepower as a soldier)
-Star Wars (Come on...everyone has wanted Jedi powers at some point)
-Dragon Age (It's be cool to slay giant dragons or slaughter darkspawn...aside from having a 20 year lifespan due to being a Grey warden...)
-90% of all Anime Universes (Be honest with yourself...would you not enjoy fighting giant monsters in a huge mech, or being thrown into highly unlikely situations with other worldly creatures just for sheer shits'n'giggles? Plus being able to survive rather painful accidents that by our laws of physics should have killed you?)
-Warcraft (You get to shout 'FOR THE HORDE', right before you go and stip your clothes and begin to dance on the table for more gold)
-Fable (Aside from the Monty Python jokes getting old after awhile, wouldn't it be awesome to own the entire country's property and fight hobbes in your spare time?)
-Internet (If you could live in the internet...well...hmm...aside from limitless amounts of porn...ummm...I'll get back to you on that one)


Some Universes That'd Prolly Suck:
-Starcraft (If you've read the novels or played the games, you can pretty much assume your going to be one of those marines getting slaughtered in a Zerg rush because your commander was too preoccupied with arranging his units into the shape of a dong)
-Half Life and Portal (Well aside from all of humanity being enslaved and/or killed off...well you can assume your either a nameless NPC or Gordan Freeman. While on the otherhand, in the Portal universe your the only human, and your forced to do repetitive tasks for a computer for the promise of cake)
-Halo (Unless your Master Chief...your likely to die)
-Gears of War (Unless your not wearing a helmet and on enough steroids to make you capable to ripping a elephant in half...your going to die...painfully...with a chainsaw...)
-Borderlands (...it's a empty wasteland filled with nothing to do but run around and shoot the same things over and over and over and over again)

Marvel. There's a huge chance that I would be a statistic but there is also a good chance that I would either

A: Be born a Mutant

B: Suffer a fatal accident...that gives me superpowers

C: Die an awesome death at the hands of a high-profile super-villain...which could also result in powers, especially if Mephiso ends up getting my soul.

Hmm, Star Trek or Mad Max. Better yet, ability to just jump between any universe I wished :p

For me it would definitely be Aerith, from <url=http://rhjunior.com/totq/00001.html> Tales of the Questor!

I would like to be reborn into the Marvel Universe as a mutant. I don't even particularly care which. I could have a stupid power like transforming into living mayonnaise, I'd just like the change.
Would eating mayonnaise be considered cannibalism then?

I'd probably go with the Mass Effect universe, I'd try to make friends with Elcor.

Lord of the Rings Universe. I'd probably get slaughtered in an epic battle, but hell, it would be an epic battle.

Any of the myst or riven worlds. Id love to learn the lost art of age writing & create my own worlds for me & my mates to explore.

An alternate universe where not only did the Nazi's win WW2 and eventually take over the world, but Hitler was actually right about everything.

Why? Cause it be so fucked up.

Star trek and mass effect are tied but also seem to be predictably popular (we can't all go and be sucessful there damnit!)

Failing that I guess being a sith wouldn't be too shabby.
Though I have got my own universe I'd want most of all though... think of it as a conglomeration of all my favourite bits of tech all bundled into my background. Endless fun...

What? No I don't daydream... I don't live there most of the time LEAVE ME ALONE! >.>

Pokemon universe. I mean come on that would be awesome and who honestly has never thought of it since they first played pokemon.
Batlling creatures all day?
Being able to walk into random people's houses and be given free stuff?
Being able to gamble at a young age?
Never sleeping?
Being in a constant rivalry with Douche/Asshat/whateveryounamehim?
Learning about epic creatures that influence the universe?

You win sir.

I'm not sure. Is it considered genocide if you kill Jamie Madrox? (Multiple-Man)

The "Zoids - New Century Zero" universe - get paid money beating teams in a giant real video game like battle
or, because I'd like a quiet, simple life - Harvest Moon - A Wonderful Life - although not with the increased passage of time and maybe a few more people

Hmmmm, I can't choose one in specific that I think I'd pick above all others, so I'll just list a few:
-Amoroad (The world of Etrian Odyssey III, as I have my own concept of how I'd end up there and fit in)
-Unova/Sinnoh/Hoenn/Johto/Kanto (Like others have said, it would be awesome to catch and own a pokemon)
-Al-Revis Academy (Wouldn't mind attending it)
-Tamriel (Cyrodill or Skyrim, both look appealing)
-Lanes Between (KH universe... Yeah, I won't deny the interest in being in a world like that...)
-'Nippon' but to be specific, two versions: the Katanagatari setting and the Okami setting (Okami I'd probably want to be something akin to Waka and in KTG, I'd set out to rebuild the Maniwa Corps and bring them back to their previous status as a mercenary company)

I don't know. Would insecticide be useful against Tyranids?

The one I would most like to live in would be Dragaera from the Vlad Taltos novels by Steven Brust. But only if I was born into certain houses. Being a Teckla would be horrible because they are usually rather dumb and are mostly servants. But being a dragearan from any of the noble houses would be awesome. Especially a Hawk or Tiassa

Edit: And let's spice it up a bit, What roll would you like to play in said universe?
I would totally live in the 40k universe, on the condition that I could be a Warboss (or at least an Ork).

Barring that, I'd go with the Dresden Files universe, so I could be the Badass Normal.
