Aliens vs Predator multiplayer details: It has a horde mode!

Rebellion has been showing off all sorts of Aliens vs. Predator stuff at Gamescom, which is an event I'm not attending, so I assume they're doing this just to taunt and mock me. Still, the news c...
GC 09: New Aliens vs. Predator screens rape my mouth

Trust Sega to show off the Xenomorph gameplay in Aliens vs. Predator at an event I couldn't attend. I've seen Marines in action, I've watched a Predator demo, but I wanted to see the Aliens more ...
