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)
