Nicolas Cage wants cake

Gears of War 3 Beast Mode

Beast Mode is a new game mode pitting you against waves of incoming enemies each wave bringing new more challenging foes, you're probably thinking "Isn't this Horde Mode?" Well the difference between Horde mode and this is that the incoming enemies are the humans, which means you will be playing as the pesky locust army.

Unlike Horde Mode, you have multiple lives and for everything you do you will be rewarded tokens used to spawn as bigger, better and more bad ass characters.

If you keep dying and dying your tokens will slowly dry up and eventually you lose, so make sure you're playing smart and getting hits on the enemies.

Some of the playable Locust include:

The Tickers; The Ticker is useless at long range but if you manage to get close enough hit the B button to explode hurting any enemies within the blast radius.

The Cantus; The Cantus is a master of long ranged combat, it is also the healer with the added ability of reviving dead players.

The Berserker; The Berserker is a slow tank like Locust, it will take you time to get to the humans but once you do all hell will break loose.

So what do I think?
What's not to love, I'm a big fan of wave based games such as Horde, Firefight and Nazi Zombies so hopefully Beast Mode will be added to that list...and I've always wanted to kill Marcus.
