    As the title suggest, what are you excited for?  I'm really pumped for the multiplayer, and the campaign. Not really a fan of Horde Mode, but i will give it a try.

    Being able to play as The Cole Train during part of the campaign is really awesome.

    Pretty much everything. 
     
    Single player will be great.  4 Player coop and the series finale. 
     
    The new horde might be pretty fun, something to do every once in a while, same as Beast. 
     
    But the multiplayer, ohhhh the multiplayer.  I'm convinced it's going to be the best multiplayer game i've played in a long time (judging by the beta). 
     
     They're fixing pretty much everything i didn't like about gears 2 multiplayer, and adding so much great stuff.  Rifles will be useful.  There will be a greater variety of weapons and they will be VIABLE in different situations  Anyone can have their own preference and style for spawn weapons.  The host issues and bad lag/bullets not going where you tell them will be gone.  Movement is refined, where you wont be hopping constantly to go faster than simply sprinting.  Meatshields are nerfed.  There are more ways to get kills and more satisfying ways to get kills and humiliate the enemy like punching people in the face for 10+ seconds.  There are executions for every weapon.  The chainsaw is actually useful. Grenades are more balanced. 
     
    The beta just blew me away.  But i'm especially looking forward to playing gametypes without respawns.  That was the main thing i didn't get from the beta, because I enjoy the tension of having one life per round and the greater emphasis on strategy that comes from warzone and execution (and I don't like people getting lucky and spawning behind me).
     
    I fully anticipate it to be my GOTY and keep me entertained for a looooong time.

    Multiplayer. They've taken out everything that I didn't like about it before and polished it to perfection, and that was just the beta.

    I just hope the multiplayer isn't a joke.

    I really hope there's more modes than what the beta gave up, I'm gonna miss the one life rounds.

    After playing the beta it's gotta be the multiplayer. It's soo much better than in the first two games.

    Given Epic's past record in mediocre story lines I won't be expecting something...Well...Epic. I say it's going to end up mostly along the lines on how Halo 3 ended. Well, minus Marcus being frozen and sent off to a galaxy far far away.  
     
    Anyways, back on topic. The thing I am most excited for is that this time I won't drop sixty unnecessary bucks on it.

    This. I'm not anxious to play the game, but I'm interested in seeing how it all ends and if Dom ends up killing himself.

    Tbh, I'm not excited for Gears 3 at all. Looks like more of the same and I want new experiences. I will probably play it sometime next year or so.

    Most excited to see how the story ends, despite the shit people give it, I like the gears universe. Also I spent a lot of time playing Horde in Gears 2 so I'll probably be burning a lot of hours in Horde 2.0.

    Horde 2.0 - I love the idea of building fortifications using the money earned from kills. Now, I must say that in every game I own except for a few, the single player campaign ALWAYS takes priority over everything else on the disc. So even though Horde 2.0 wins it, the single player campaign is a cunt hair below Horde 2.0.

    I really want to play as a Ticker in Beast mode, it seems both creepy and exhilarating.
