Though I have added the must-buys of Halo 3: ODST and NHL to my collection in the past several weeks it still feels like we have not really hit the busy gaming season that is Fall 2009.  Starting next week though that will change as a series of heavy-hitters will make there way into stores and eventually into my games room.  So lets have a quick run down of what the next few weeks will bring:

Borderlands – October 20th: The co-op ‘loot-n-shoot’ arrives and looks to offer a metric tonne of great gaming action.  I am a total sucker for loot, levels, and co-op.  Will there be a better game for me this year?

Forza Motorsport 3 – October 27th: The race is on with the arrival of the preimier racing franchise on the planet, Forza 3.  I dread to think about the hours I will sink into this game!

Tekken 6 – October 27th: Purchasing this game on the strength of its wireless fighting stick.  I am hoping to be pleasantly surprised by the game itself.  I will find out for myself soon enough.

Modern Warfare 2 – November 10th: The grand daddy game of 2009 (and perhaps 2010), Modern Warfare 2.  It may not be a stretch to say I will play this game more than all the others combined!

That is not all for the rest of the year, I have a few games riding the pine as well as a couple more must-haves to complete the season.  Stay tuned for more on the killer gaming season of ‘09.
