What could possibly be cooler than the new Firefight mode in Reach that lets you play as either Elites or Spartan's and customise all elements of the game? How about a mode that lets you play as all the types of enemy. Gears of War 3 has Beast mode, basically Horde with you playing as the swarms of Locusts, taking control from everything from Tickers up to Berserkers. The more advanced Locusts need to be unlocked to be used in Beast mode.

I suddenly expect to be playing a ton of this mode when Gears of War 3 appears next year. Fun fact, Berserkers are female Drones, no wonder the Locust are always in such a bad mood.
