The first Gears of War 3 weekend event launched today on Xbox LIVE and it includes one of the very first mutators from this past Spring's beta, the Big Head mode.

The Big Head Mode runs through the weekend for the public Horde playlist and for Team Death Match. It's also available in both Ranked and Quick Matches.

There will be more weekend events planned for October according to Epic's Rod Fergusson in a video where he answered fan questions and talked about the upcoming Horde Command Center DLC. Some of those mentioned include Torque Bow Tag (only the Torque Bow equipped), all shotguns and a special event for Halloween.

Epic designed Gears of War 3 to make it easy for the developers to change up maps, weapons and special mutators so we should expect these Gears weekends to be a regular occurence.
