Horde Mode in Gears of War 3 is 10X better than the original version in Gears of War 2. Not only are you playing for XP and upgrading your character. You get to play horde how you want to play it. The usual 4 difficulties are there and there are still 50 waves to push through, but the main feature that changes the way you play is the Command Post and building features. When you start out you are given 1000 to start and you can use it to buy weapons, ammo, or you can build your fortress. Things such as turrets, barbed wire, and decoys help you progress through the waves with much needed help. Horde mode in Gears 2 was very repetitive and you were fighting the same enemies in round 1, 11, 21 and so on. This time it's a lot more unpredictable and changed this system up by adding boss waves on every 10th wave. Grab some buddies Horde mode just got even more fun when you add matadors. Not many games offer mods or tweaks to allow you to progress through a mode easier. It's not about making this mode easier because what it does is make it more fun! Big heads, unlimited ammo and much more await you when Gears of War 3 hits store on September 20, 2011. View Source
