Heh katanas might be useless now in modern warfare but just wait till the future comes. I'm sure they'll make a comeback and put all other weapons to shame. =P
The only way a sword can make a comeback is if it were a lightsaber and we all had superhuman reaction to be able to block bullets with the lightsaber.
Lol lightsabers would be cool, but what I kind of had in mind was like we would have mechas in the future and it be something like code geass or gundam where the katanas are all badass.
Well I don't know if you notice in the animes but everything that is like a tank pretty much gets destroyed with ease. Doesn't matter if they have armor piercing rounds and using a nuke would be pretty extreme don't you think? You'd end up killing yourself and the mech.
if you had gundam in real life it means there is no more war and no other weapons are needed, because the first country that created it will unify the world

...No, I'm pretty sure that that would cause WWIII. This isn't Code Geass. Do you even know what this is?
If I had superhuman abilities above the standard deviation of 1 for humans, then yes I would consider using the katana. But I don't, and so the rifle is the better more practical option.
