  1. 2053 - The United States of America's armed forces are presumed to phase out the entire M1 Abrams fleet from service. By this time, the M1 Abrams will have seen 71 years of service with the U.S. Army and USMC. It will be presumably replaced by Main battle tanks or weapons systems resulting from either the GCV (Ground combat vehicle) program, or cancelled FCS (Future combat systems) program.

     

    2053 sees the end of World War III, as given in Star Trek: First Contact. This was originally presumed to be the starting date for the War, but that was given as 2026 in the Star Trek: Enterprise two parter, "In a Mirror, Darkly". The currently given end year clouds logic over how in 2079, there is a postatomic horror directly attributed to the aftermath of World War Three (TNG episode "Encounter at Farpoint").

    I haven't copied anything new it seems...

  4. Saint's Row has always been a spoof of the GTA franchise, but after 3 it took it's own direction... Many consider it to be worse than 3, many consider it better. I personally consider both to be great games.

    (I got that Halo thing straight from wiki)

  6. 2049 - The very earliest and possible response signal from the Gliese 581 vicinity, should there be one by intelligent extraterrestrial life, will be received. A signal was transmitted to the Gliese 581 vicinity in August 2009, taking about 20.3 years to reach its destination.

     

    The present "One country, two systems" with Macau, guaranteed for 50 years starting from December 20, 1999 provided under the Basic Law, will expire.
