This is a great question, not an easy question, and I love it!

I’m going to assume that you mean a Table Top RPG, PC, and Console and I’m not one of the NPC’s but one of the Kool Kids (PC’s) so I’m going to go with one answer to each. Mind these are the ones we want to be in MOST, not the only ones (especially for tabletop) and we have considered system, story, gameworld, etc.

Table Top: Me- Rifts RPG. Wife- Shadowrun.

PC: Me- Star Wars: TOR. Wife- World of Warcraft, Pre-Cataclysm.

Console: Me- Fable. Wife- <has never had a console>.

Thorsteinn:
Wife: Shadowrun because it's a post-apocalyptic world where I have the chance to be part of PFM. It's gritty, it's techno & magic. So it's got a majority of the modern conveniences while still having PFM.

World of Warcraft because it amuses me to play a fucking Cow (Tauren), a fucking Cow riding a BATTLE CHICKEN!!!!!

Me: Rifts RPG because it too has both Tech, PFM, and Psionics. It's all that parallel world spanning, galaxy traveling, post-apocalyptic, anime, western, shining knights awesomeness rolled into one. Plus you get to kill Nazi's. The system may not be the best but the world itself is endless in possibility's. Add in mage's, glitterboy's, cyber-knights, wolfen, etc and you have one of my favorite, but underplayed, worlds.

Star Wars: The Old Republic because I want to be a Jedi baby. Use the Force, fly a spaceship, wield a lightsaber, kill the bad guys, and because Star Wars.

Fable because I just would sit for hours & play. it was Fable or Mass Effect but Fable won because I really really liked being able to do magic, fight, save the day (or not) but no matter what you had a world where good & evil were not so grey.

Lord Dane:
Tough one but narrowed down between Star Wars - Old Republic & Skyrim. Skyrim is my more likely choice. I play it so much.

Sir Nate:
Hmm,  I don't think Id actually want to live in any world I can think of. And if it has to be a game then.....World of Warcraft(Death knights are awesome) or Elder scrolls world.
(FB I said middle earth, but changing that now since it isn't really a video game open world wise)
Video Game Nots/hells
Kerbel space program test pilots.
Call of duty multiplayer(all 9 year olds included)
Minecraft(while a fun game, creepers are evil creatures)
Dark souls 1 and 2.

Sir William:
Naythan, there's an open-world RPG set in Middle Earth coming out soon where you play as a ranger-turned-revenant w/magic powers.  Should be a good game; but I don't know that I'd want to live in it.

It's a tossup between Skyrim and Mass Effect (I am really, really hooked on this game); love the idea of living a medieval life but truthfully, there are some modern contrivances that I'd rather not do w/out (air conditioning, refrigeration, cars) - plus being a spacefarer seems so wildly thrilling and interacting w/other life forms that aren't human is an exciting prospect.  Plus, it would seem there's enough physical compatibility to allow dalliances w/other races beyond humans...I'd be like Captain Kirk, I'm getting the blue chic.  lol
