To be honest, I'm not much of a system hacker. I don't fold, spindle or mutilate rules from an existing game to create the sort of game I want. I'm more interested in trying to divine and support the designers intent for that game. Gaming can create so many diverse experiences and focus play on a variety of specific types of stories or characters that if I want a specific experience, I'm more likely to aim myself at a game that does provide it than trying to hack an existing game. Though I did design my own game to emulate a story style that hadn't been taken on by other designers.
But I will point out one system that I have used for multiple diverse games over the years. I have run it more or less as is for several campaigns. And that would be GURPS. I did science fiction adventure with GURPS Prime Directive. Traditional fantasy in GURPS Banestorm and modern fantasy with GURPS Technomancer. People with super powers in the world of GURPS Wild Cards.
