"Destiny is set to have the biggest launch in 2014. It is the most pre-ordered game in the US. The top three pre-ordered games are three different versions of Destiny, and four of the top six.
In total, the game has about 1.5 million pre-orders in the US. The PlayStation 4 version is the most pre-ordered game in the US with 646,195 pre-orders. The Xbox One version has 526,869 pre-orders, the Xbox 360 version with 219,028 pre-orders, and the PlayStation 3 version 103,838 pre-orders."
The long-rumoured Destiny Mobile game from NetEase may finally be ready for reveal according to multiple leakers.
Phil Spencer talks candidly about missing out on both Destiny and Guitar Hero
So you're saying that Microsoft has missed out on so many huge gaming franchise in the last 25 years from GTA exclusivity to guitar hero and destiny it's just laughable they had so many misses
Best deal deal in gaming must be when Sony bought Insomniac for 229 million dollars. They made over 800 millions on Spiderman for the ps4 alone. Thats just crazy!
another Interview?
how is he the only one who loves the spotlight as much as he does lol
Let's not forget he also famously passed on Spider-man, Genshin Impact and GTA3.
However it's almost kind of cute how he can keep that sh1t-eating grin and say he's a 'no regrets' kind of guy, especially when you think how much just these 5 titles could have swung the world in Xbox's favour instead of Sonys.
How he's kept his job I don't know, he must sure be keeping Papa Nadella's shaft warm somehow.
"But, but Gamepass, he introduced that!!!"
Yes he did, and now look at Xbox, all it's exclusives are coming to Playstation now rendering the platform obsolete.
A former Halo and Destiny executive producer has said the live service model is "so much better for developers and players" than the one-off $60 purchase model.
Well the Poll on the website is suggesting he is massively wrong and out of touch.
A big majority of the vote going to "I prefer one off purchases with paid expansions"
Couldn't agree more.
I'll always think the concept is awesome. Back during the PS3 era I pictured a Spider-Man game that would be the traditional open world swinging playground that they typically are but every comic issue would be turned into dlc. It'd be the entirety of the Amazing line, 2 to 3 issues at a time, turnt to dlc until the entire Amazing line is told in form of a game. That concept eventually made it to the industry and they have consistently fk'd it up with every game that has been made as a "service".
There is nothing like sitting down , popping in a great single player game and blocking out the world.
how many did it for the beta though.
i enjoyed the beta but cancelled my preorder when all the stuff came out about how u join raids etc and the fact nobody was accepting group requests .
but after watching another video it made me want it again so i think im gonn re-preorder
It's a little off topic but i don't see how VGChartz still has PS4 sitting at 9.4 million when Sony officially announced 10 million at Gamescom. Perhaps they're getting lazy?
I thought once you hit a million it's platinum not gold.
Now, will they please tell me the download/install size of this game?!!?
"Set to smash industry records"...with 1.5 million pre-orders?
So....GTA 5 still wins it seems.
