Halo the master chief collection. That's whats next.

In terms of destiny I guess hopefully the dlcs will be good.

nosferatuzodd3513d ago

GTAV will be the next big thing you just wait

venom063513d ago

what's next after the hype????? Reality sets in.. People better learn to stop letting IGN "hype" them to the point of crazy on Activision titles, because they DEFINITELY do this every year..

cruzngta3513d ago

Agreed bro. Halo MCC will rule all.

joab7773513d ago

Well, it's either that or a sub. Ppl don't realize that mmo's and destiny is, and would hav benefited from embracing that fact, need full teams for yrs to continually release content. Not a map pack once and awhile but real content and expansions. Activision chose dlc, which is what everyone cried for concerning the elder scrolls online.

Otherwise u get a mess like f2p and microtransactions. Destiny will b an entirely different game 1 yr from now as it evolves. The one thing that destroys mmo's is the lack of endgame content in the following 6-12 months after release. At least Bungie is on top of this.

MasterCornholio3513d ago

Planetside 2 and GTAV is what I'm looking forward to the most.

I'm really interested in Alien Isolation but I'm a bit wary of it. Normal after what happened to the last game.

That's extremely low for microtransactions, especially for a game that's essentially designed around it

LucasRuinedChildhood332d ago (Edited 332d ago )

This was back when the game wasn't free to play.

The figures are from November 2017 to February 2019 (1 year and 4 months).

Based on that projection, the MTX revenue for Destiny 2 likely would have been closer to ~$240m for 2 years.

Not sure if premium expansions are included in that figure either although ... I'd hope that they are though and that most of the revenue was for actual content like Forsaken.

People spend way too much money on cosmetics.

Rude-ro331d ago (Edited 331d ago )

Seasons($10 and just got bumped to $12) and dungeon keys($10 each, two a year) are through the eververse(micro transaction) store.
So for those two years, in order to play a season, you would pay through micro transactions.

Sonic1881331d ago (Edited 331d ago )

Bungie Marathon will be worse since it's designed around it as well

Kurt Russell331d ago

It makes me sad to agree... but at the same time I am looking forward to giving it a go. Destiny 2 is so far in, I find it difficult to figure out what I am meant to do first.

buffig332d ago

I think FIFA alone makes over $1bn a year from mtx

anast331d ago

FIFA promotes a worldwide sport. It should make more money than destiny.

CantThinkOfAUsername331d ago (Edited 331d ago )

Let's compare something similar. Apex Legends and its ridiculous $18/$40 skins make EA a billion each year.

z2g331d ago

For as much as ppl complain how much they hate microtransactions, they sure don’t act like it. No wonder they aren’t going anywhere.

spicelicka331d ago

By "people" you're referring to millions and millions of people. Obviously the ones complaining aren't necessarily the same as the ones spending all that money.

There's millions that purchase MTX and there's nothing we can do about it

I've been thinking about playing through D1 again before it goes away...

CobraKai482d ago

That’s the sad reality of a game like this. I bought it, invested lots of money, and it can go away at anytime. I still think this was more fun than 2.

jeromeface481d ago

prob because 2 is a grindfest slog

spoonard479d ago

That's the bummer of 'games as a service'.
