Bungie: Destiny is the best game we've ever made

Destiny is the best game Bungie has ever made, according to community manager David Dague.

[Gamer1982]

Well the buzz for this game is HUGE right now it could be the HALO beater but only time will tell. Me personally am not stoked for it but may pick up a copy tomorrow.

[1nsomniac]

Ignoring the Media & Bungie themselves, who else is exactly hyping/buzzing this game??

The general consensus of pretty much everybody that has actually picked up the game (real customers) is that its flat there's just no spark & generally very boring.

I wasn't going to get it as I'm in my 30's so am well aware of the signs developers use to cover up bad games along with my friends, except for 1 who had a console bundle pre-order. Everyone else is skipping it. I pre-ordered it today on PS4 when the price dropped to £35 but plan on selling it as soon as it arrives for a profit.

@PSIN4MANT - I don't understand what point you're trying to make, who cares if its released in NA yet??

[Battlefieldlover]

RadBrad likes it :)

[OUROSMAG]

Funny cause nobody in NA even has it right now.

[700p]

I agree. They are hyping this game like its no tomorrow. So far from what i seen its pretty damn boring. They cant top halo.

[cr33ping_death]

How does all that BS taste? I went to Gamestop and already a huge line so people can finish paying it off. Get off your high horse and let others enjoy the game.

Less than 5 hours now! :-)

[nicksetzer1]

Yea, totally not even close to halo, based on what I played. Pretty sure it's just a marketing statement.

[strangeaeon]

It's big, empty, and repetitive. Add to that unreasonably long loading times and it's no purchase from me. Bungie had a good concept and forgot to fill it with things to actually do.

[XBLSkull]

Lol Bungie, if the beta was ANYTHING like the full game, it isn't your best game. Halo: Combat Evolved is.

[NatureOfLogic_]

A lot of Xbox fanboys seem to really hate this game.

[OrangePowerz]

After 4 hours or so so far I like it and I'm also in my 30s.

Nick and 700p, upset that a Bungie game is released for a platform besides if Xbox? Someone sounds very salty.

Is it better than their previous games? Who knows it's very early to say. Sure as hell beats Halo 3 by a mile already.

[tuglu_pati]

"Bungie: Destiny is the best game we've ever made"

Like they are gonna say otherwise

[MasterCornholio]

I think Xbox fans should give Bungie a chance instead of dismissing them because they are not producing Halo. They did make great games in the past (something you fans bought a lot of) so why can't destiny be good?

Is the bitterness still there because of the exclusive PlayStation content? That's really nothing worth getting upset over.

[mikeslemonade]

Halo and Halo 2 are their best games. They haven't made a great game since Halo 2. Destiny is a major let down.

[GodGinrai]

its competitive MP does not have the legs to beat halo on that front. A fact that is so painfully gonna get, hammered home when Halo:MCC, comes out And from what is being said , the story is no halo either. So im not sure how it will be "halo beater". Maybe in sales...but CoD sells more than halo, and that game has not got an edge on halos gameplay either.. But I understand bungie is on their marketing spiel, right now.

[MeliMel]

Halo beater....hahahahaha

Destiny will be forgotten when Halo:MCC comes out.

[Funantic1]

It is funny tho. Lol. Destiny's first review is 6 out of 10. Yikes that's terrible.

[marlinfan10]

ill wait and judge it for myself.

[Loktai]

Well of course they'd say that... Or I Could play playstation fanboy and say "OF COURSE BECAUSE HALO SUUUXXXXXX right.... actually marathon wasnt bad (showing my age) but I Hated macs at that time because the owners were SMUG.

Loved the beta.. bought digital so cant play til 3AM eastern... waiting patiently....ish...

[buttclown]

Yeah the 3 AM thing is kind of BS lol.

[Flipgeneral]

Gotta say, didn't get hype until this week. But now I'm ready!

Wish I could stay up for server launch! EST....

[NatureOfLogic_]

I've never owned an Xbox. But I have played Halo and after playing the destiny beta, I have to say I disagree. Halo is simply you're best game to date Bungie.

[GodGinrai]

This is the problem. They got it so perfect the first time round. I dont blame them for focusing on the co op and exploration (both, factors in halo, but the competive MP was perfection). The less comparisons, with halo, the better for destiny, I say.

[Novistador]

I feel like Halo has better multiplayer.. Destiny doesn't even have split screen coop.

[aviator189]

I'll find out in a few hours.

[Starbucks_Fan]

Sounds like hype to me/

Halo will probably be the best creation in their history.

[ScorpiusX]

So Oni , halo, Marathon were all crap thank for saying something years later. next time a heads up would be cool so I can keep my money in pocket.

[Einhert]

LOL

No bungie your best game was Halo: Combat Evolved, then it was Halo Reach.

But keep trying to keep this hype train on the rails.

6/10

[Sm00thNinja]

Halo... Bungie needs to start adding to the hype train. Day 1 on PS4 but slowly regretting my Amazon preorder, may have to bust out the return box.... Delays won't help this game this is what Bungie is proud of so it should be damn good

[Dan_scruggs]

I've been watching live streams all day and my assessment is that this may be a bit of an overstatment.

[JonnyBigBoss]

Eh. I disagree. It's good but I don't care much for it.

[Wni0]

Woah, better than Halo 3: ODST? That game had like 3 new MP maps a new MP mode and a 4 hour campaign. I doubt it can top that.

[DanteVFenris666]

Why charge dlc content for 20 bucks when slapping the halo name on it will make all those fanboys boy it for whatever price listed. Odst was a dlc turned into a release. I don't know why people worship bungee halo was generic, graphics where not up to par with standards, and quite frankly they cut a lot of corners even with halo because they knew the name alone was a money printer. I liked halo but it was never for the shitty compains. It was for couch multiplayer it did that pretty well and a respect the series for the fun I had with friends. But bungee has never done anything revelutionairy or innovative besides I guess the first halo was probably considered innovative in it's time.

[IVanSpinal]

not this time Bungie

[Bizzare21]

No, it was Halo 2. But nice marketing though Bungie.

[mrpsychoticstalker]

You are on Denial Bungie, Halo is the best game you have ever created and that is mostly because it completely changed the video game industry in many aspects that will continue to evolve with time.

While I enjoy destiny, is not as good as halo I'm sure many halo fans will agree with this.

Anxiously waiting for the Master Chief Collection and Halo 5, I'm sure the new devs will bring the franchise to amazing new levels.

[NatureOfLogic_]

Halo is dead without Bungie.

[Wni0]

Halo changed what exactly for gaming? About as generic as a sci-fi shooter can get, it had great controls and bright graphics was its thing. Socom had better multiplayer and was released before, Timesplitters had a better level editor, and more robust local MP ages before. Half-Life had the open levels, and more gameplay variation, etc etc.

[TheBoy]

Nope, Halo 2 will forever by the best game you ever made Bungie. You're Reach Era Bungie, you've lost your magic touch, Destiny is nothing but mediocrity.

[hiawa23]

We will find out in a few hours Bungie, but it is going to be hard to top the Halo games in my opinion, but honestly, what else are they supposed to say?

[HeavenlySnipes]

Doubt the game will be more fun than Halo 1 and 3 were for me (I know I left out 2, fuck the flood).

[iNFAMOUZ1]

........wow no its not

[KiwiViper85]

You want us to say what, Sony?

[Novistador]

Brrr Sony, your hand is sure cold!

[NxeonPwn]

Guys BUNGIE think its the best game they made, not what you think. People telling Bungie what they can't say smh.

[jahfen83]

Question: who has played Destiny in its entirety? You don't know if halo is better.

[DanteVFenris666]

I honestly think destiny triumphs halo even though I think it looks bad. I've always thought halo was mediocre. Though most fps now a days I believe are, there's only one way you can shoot something(point and shoot) and so many games with it. It's a nice mechanic, just overused.

We need a fps, no not first person shooter but a first person sworder

[KiwiViper85]

Heard of Skyrim?

[Saito]

The same game you ever made.

[Illusive_Man]

It's Halo firefight.

[Jury]

This place is full of bitter halo fans

Hilarious!!

[WitWolfy]

If it had a 3rd person option in the main campaign I'd buy it in a heartbeat, so tired of FPS!

[LAWSON72]

It is fun but no halo is better
