A final review to Destiny as the next entry in this franchise is nearing release...

Story(ies) It is not a secret that during the launch of Destiny the games PvE (Player Versus Enviroment) content was lacking in the story department. But what the game did do very well was set up a ma… Read more

Found verdict: plan C

Destiny is a game of spectacular highs and even lower lows. The shooting and movement mechanics are so fluid and enjoyable, yet the map/navigation/mission-select system wrapped around everything is pa… Read more

A game that launched a thousand ships, but did not quite make it to Troy

Some of you reading this are not going to like my review. You’re not going to like it because you put hundreds of hours into the world of Destiny and anything short of “It’s brilliant!” or “Simply the… Read more

Simultaneously one of the Best and Worst Games of this Generation

If I had the option I'd give Destiny every Star out of Five rating I could because thats kind have how you need to look at this game. Its hard to pass judgement on it because a lot of the games fault'… Read more

Shot, Reload, Redesign, Reset, Reboot.

The gameplay mechanics of Destiny are near perfect. The shooting feels great, the double jump is awesome, even the melee attack has a wonderful punch to it (no pun intended). You have three classes to… Read more

this game is dope.

This game is amazing as long as you have friends to play with. Otherwise....it can be a drag. The pvp can be fun alone for a time, but the strikes and "dungeons" that you play can become repetitive an… Read more

7/10

+Gameplay and performance are solid. +Visual design: creatures, weapons, armour, environments all look very nice. +Sound design: Every exotic weapon, enemy grunts and different musical styles per adve… Read more

A Great Game, If you have all of the DLC's....

Destiny has been one of the most talked about games of this Console generation. In Destiny you play as a Guardian that you make and shoot things. Now let's get into the review!! Story The story for th… Read more

Destiny 2.0

Available on: PlayStation 4 Xbox One PlayStation 3 Xbox 360 As much as I played vanilla Destiny, I never got around to writing my review for the original game. I was very optimistic with the original… Read more

Destiny: The Taken King - Assume the Throne

Destiny : The Taken King feels like the game Bungie wanted to put forth a year ago. Cinematics with weight, set pieces reminiscent of the glory days in the Halo franchise, and first person action blen… Read more

Destiny and Fate: The Future of a Franchise

Destiny is a weird game. If possible, the months leading up to its release made it an even weirder one. And it really shouldn’t be. There is nothing so dramatically groundbreaking in Destiny to garner… Read more

Destiny Review (2015)

Greetings fellow Guardians!! What are all of you thinking when playing destiny??? Bungie claims to have worked 5-6 years on this game. A game that is suppose to be an mmorpg. Now let's take a look at… Read more

Destiny

Take a bit of Borderlands, splash in the combat dynamics from Bungie's previous series Halo, and mix it into a similiar structure to Phantasy Star Online and you'd end up with Destiny. The combat in D… Read more

Bungie's "Mass Effect"-like FPS is a decent shooter.

Developer Bungie's "Halo" trilogy was a landmark achievement for the FPS genre. The original game (along with "Goldeneye 007") proved that console-exclusive shooters could rank up with the great PC FP… Read more

Destiny - PS4

Destiny is a game which is just as beautiful and fun as it is flawed and frustrating. Oh Destiny, where to begin? It's been a long time since such a divisive game has been released by a developer with… Read more

A Strangely Compelling Game

I can’t think of a game that has ever delighted and frustrated me in equal measure the way Destiny has managed to. It’s a game rewards efficiently plotting a course through environments to acquire upg… Read more

Decent gameplay and atmosphere, but lacks substance

Honestly, within the first half hour, this game feels like a four star experience. It starts off with wonder, mysticism, and an atmosphere that makes you feel outgunned and ready to fight back. The ga… Read more

Destiny's biggest flaw is that it doesn't start until it ends

If Destiny started with its endgame, it would have been an easy game to 5-star. The best parts of Destiny, however, are being played after you've completed the game. For better or worse, the relativel… Read more

Fun Shooter, boring game.

Destiny is a game i wasn't really paying that much attention to. That was until i played the beta. It's been some time since i last played an fps game(i stopped after COD MW2) it just got pointless to… Read more

A mixture of Fun And Disappointment Was Our Destiny

The presentation doesn't match the quality *Sight* This was the last thing I was expecting from Destiny, and more importantly, the end product was something I would never have expected from Bungie. I… Read more

Destiny feels like an amazing incomplete framework

Destiny has taken some time for me to review because of the duality of my experience. On the one hand it has a disjointed story and a hollow single player experience. On the other hand I have spent we… Read more

Destiny Review

If you have been interested even slightly in Bungie's new game you must heard just about everyone's opinion. But I would like to reinterate the collective and say my two cents which is much the same.… Read more

A mystery of a game

It's been a long time since I experienced an arc like this. It's been an intricate rollercoaster. From the moment the game was announced, with its Marathon Infinity callback title, I was genuinely gla… Read more

Destiny - Two Weeks Down the Line

"Destiny is a fun, but hollow experience." I think most everyone on the internet is familiar by now with this sentiment about Bungie's online shooter which is kicking off their ten year plan to create… Read more

Destiny: A Disappointing Bundle of Lies from Activision and Bungie

Review of Destiny for the Playstation 4, after 33 hours of gameplay. This game is filled with so many baffling and terrible design decisions that it has killed most of my enthusiasm for "next-gen" vid… Read more

Destiny: A Disappointing Joy.

For better or for worse the gaming public has been anticipating Destiny since early 2012 when the name and vague details we leaked through Activision’s litigation with the founders of Infinity Ward. A… Read more

Fun Shooting, that's it.

Intro Destiny starts off very promising, with a floating character flying up to you, resurrecting you from the dead, and telling you that you are a Guardian that has been dead for a very long time. Th… Read more
