- Comic SF (e.g. Red Dwarf, Hitch Hiker's Guide, Galaxy Quest, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians)
- Cyberpunk
- Cyberspace: The world you are in is a representation of (a) computer network(s). Think William Gibson.

- Futuristic dystopia
- Gamma World style post-appocalypse
- Huge "generation ship" sci-fi setting

- Underwater: science fiction (bioengineered or just properly equipped)

- High-tech world with almost extinct humans gone savage (Blame!, GUNNM)
