In Pictures: The 21 PC games that matter most, right now

Spring (southern hemisphere) is here, and 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?

Doom 3 BFG Edition Doom 3 came out in 2004 to mild acclaim, and now Id is bringing it back with plenty of perks and added features aimed squarely at PC gamers with powerful gaming machines. The BFG Edition should be available this October and includes support for multiple monitors and 3D displays, and also improves the graphics, the level design, the in-game flashlight, and a host of other tiny tweaks and fixes that (combined) make this game worth picking up if you missed out on Doom 3 the first time around. If you played Doom 3 and simply want a little more, the BFG Edition will include new levels, enemies, and weapons just for you.
