I'd love a mode like "beast x cog" or something. To play as different locusts (with their abilities) vs cogs would be sweet.

Gears of War 3 'Forces of Nature' map pack detailed
GameTrailers TV brought on Gears of War 3 executive producer Rod Fergusson to talk about another downloadable map pack dubbed "Forces of Nature." Three of the maps -- "Artillery," "Aftermath," and "Cove" -- are brand new, but there's also the familiar locales "Jacinto" and "Raven Down." There was a brief mention of Elemental Cleavers, which are hidden in four of the maps and produce different visual effects when attacking others. You're also getting four more characters, though only the Savage Hunter is totally new; the others should look familiar to those who follow pre-order bonuses. Fergusson didn't mention a price, but he did say "Forces of Nature" would be available for download on Tuesday, March 27. Any interest in this? I dig the natural-disasters theme. Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)You also get five weapon skins and the return of Guardian gametype. 800 microsoft points or free with season pass. they should give beast mode some love.
I'd love a mode like "beast x cog" or something. To play as different locusts (with their abilities) vs cogs would be sweet. Finally had the cash for the season pass the other day. Never played the multi in the first two, as a CTL addict Guardian sounds awesome. 5:00 PM on 06.15.2013 Legend of Zelda team considering DLC for future projectsThe Legend of Zelda series producer Eiji Aonuma recognizes some of Nintendo's venerable franchises may be growing a tad stale.
