Raymond E Feist's works would be nice. Classic fantasy.

I wouldn't call it reasonably hard. 2 treats nano like complete magic, 1 treats it in semi-magical ways (e.g. anti-missile spray), 3 and 4 seems to think magnets are magic, and all four have a relationship with thermodynamics that is disrespectful at best.

2. Heavy Gear (Great world, needs a good RPG. The D20 version was cringeworthy)
3. Fringeworthy
Could number four be Space 1889?

A clunky badly produced 1970's Canadian TV series comes to mind, The Starlost. Given how little the show is remembered the license should be cheap. Be that as it may it's a good adventure setting.

Blake's7 seems like a good setting too. The Federation is a truly nasty piece of work. You can be glam and gritty at the same time. Oh and the Ladies get to be action heroes in gowns and high-heels. If nothing else, Servalan is a Masterclass on being charming and impressively evil at the same time.

While it could be, that's lower.

#4 would be Deadlands: Hell on Earth
#5 would be an RPG for the old Sierra Games Earthsiege/Starsiege, pre-Tribes.
#6 would be Renegade Legion: Legionnaire.
#7 would probably be Space 1889

One setting I can see pushing the game's limits (in a good way) is Joss Whedon's Dollhouse.

Speaking of Joss Whedon, Firefly.

I kinda had the opposite. I rage-quit my own Firefly 'verse game (I was the GM) halfway through the first session. (At least in part due to being pressured into starting it before I was really ready ... And one player deciding that "slapping the captain upside the head and calling him an idiot" was mutiny so shoot to kill...)
