Summer is over, but PC gaming is about to heat up. Starting with Borderlands 2 (pictured here), there's a bevy of new games coming to PCs this fall, and many of them look good enough to merit serious attention. From complex tactical strategy games to fast-paced, modern military shooters and everything in between, chances are there's a game coming out soon that will be perfect entertainment for all your holiday "down time." Have a look at this gallery, and tell us what you think in the comments section. Did we forget any critical nuggets of awesomeness?

The original Borderlands was a sleeper hit in 2009, earning critical and commercial acclaim for offering players an addictive first-person combat experience that could be completed by up to four players cooperating together. Borderlands 2 seems to offer plenty more of what made the first game famous, including plenty of weird space monsters, complex skill and weapon upgrade systems, and plenty of frenetic action--all in a tongue-in-cheek mashup of future tech and old-fashioned spaghetti western sensibilities.

Whether you've been playing World of Warcraft since launch week or you've waited until now to check out the biggest subscription-based MMORPG in history, there's something for you to look forward to in the Mists of Pandaria expansion due to be released later this year. Players who purchase the Mists of Pandaria expansion pack gain access to the new Pandaren race, the new Monk class, and a new minigame that lets players pit their pets against one another in turn-based battles.
