You're stuck in a video game...

Video on Youtube:
Mostly funny, but anyway not here for that.
The opening card:
You're stuck in a video game for 1 week. You can't use any cheat code, and if you die in the game you die in real life, but everything you win or earn in the game (money, cars, houses...) will be brought to your life. Which video game do you choose and what do you do?

"Star Trek Online. Just float around in my ship for a week, then return to the real world with a fucking starship."
All (or just most) others: x game would suck because...

Oi, You lot, what would you choose, and then do? Would you risk for higher rewards? And "dying" in game not killing you in real life only happens if there's in-game lore for it, aka EVE Online's "backup clones". so there's no true death for you, but you do get dumber. (I haven't played enough and ever died in EVE for that to hit, so its a guess on it.)On the other hand, training occurs as a SUBCONSCIOUS THING, and a week real time is plenty to learn lots anyway.
