What came first: the Future, or The Future?

I'm clueless.

Edit: Great, I can't seem to delete my own post. I didn't read the blurbs throughout. There seem to be some confusion between the two "gamewise" though.
Can ayone please close this? Thanks.

Welcome to the world of tomorrow!

I read the blurbs and I'm not sure what the difference is. Could you explain it to me?

Derr... I'll try!
Future is games that take place in the future, games set in a future world (future=present, reality, sci-fi, colonizing planets).
The Future is about stuff that will / may happen in the future (foreshadowing, prediction, fate, earlier events).
 
I don't know. But if both were to stay, I would've switched the blurb text so that:

Future = Stuff that will happen in the future.
The future = Events that takes place in a time ahead of this.

Or perhaps they should just be combined.

"Depending upon your view on time, the future can be straightforward or incredibly confusing."

Hmmm...maybe I'll deal with this...in the future.

Any others thoughts on this?

This is still confusing as hell, if they are different concepts it is badly explained. If not, Just delete or combine.

Don't we have a much more recent topic on this exact same issue? No need to keep open two topics that cover the exact same thing.

@LordAndrew: No need to start a new topic on something already discussed, right?

@Ignor: I would have been fine with the new topic, as long as the 11 month old one was left alone. A user can't be expected to search through a year of archives, but it would be nice to see people at least look over the first page of topics.
