"A futuristic, innovative MMO shooter with RPG elements."
5 stars"

Great graphics across all platforms, visually stunning expansive sci-fi landscapes and extensive character levelling and customisation possibilities, but these aren't all that make Destiny a great game.

The alien and robotic threats you face on each of the many game worlds are incredibly varied and interesting, have huge bags of tricks (and use them!) and bosses that will keep you guessing and fighting for your life. The FPS element is different from others in its emphasis on energy weapon and melee combat, speed and and 3D mobility. Your guardian character is super fast and nimble, allowing you to engage enemies in interesting and satisfying ways, and evade them when necessary.

Only gripes are that it can get quite hard, especially if you challenge yourself, combat can get repetitive (especially given the above) and mostly consists of you surviving waves of enemies as you progress through planetary phases performing simple tasks – what keeps things interesting is the environments and dynamic enemy combatants that will keep you reeling.

The environments can get a bit familiar the more you play as multiple missions within a planet often take place within the same particular part of it. However, the environments are still breathtaking, diverse and are a joy to explore multiple times over – mainly because of the game's art direction and visual style, which is striking and unique, although a bit halo-esque.

All in all a fantastic game and the birth of a successful IP that should keep people buzzing for years to come with new challenges, bosses and extensive levelling and customisation possibilities. The expansive MMO nature of the game means Bungie will keep updating the game world with new content to keep fans coming back for more.

Also, is is important to mention that the multiplayer game mode (where you fight other guardians rather than team up with them) is awesome fun and adds an extra exciting, competitive aspect to the game other than MMO co-op.

Don't sleep on this one!

From the moment this was announced I was hyped, not sure why everyone was upset with it, but I guess thats the internet. Great game for anyone who likes shooters and MMO's

Description

From Bungie, the creators of Halo, and Activision, the publisher of Call of Duty, comes Destiny, the next evolution in interactive entertainment and an epic adventure unlike anything players have experienced.

In Destiny you are a Guardian of the last city on Earth, able to wield incredible power. Explore the ancient ruins of our solar system, from the red dunes of Mars to the lush jungles of Venus. Defeat Earth's enemies. Discover all that we have lost. Become legend.

Destiny delivers an all new way to experience first-person action games. A sweeping adventure set within a bold new universe, featuring an unprecedented combination of cooperative, competitive, public, and community activities seamlessly woven into an expansive, persistent, online world.

Features:

  • Brave New World – Destiny will instantly draw players into a universe of heroes and legends, with worlds and storytelling crafted by Bungie, the creators of Halo – one of the most beloved and critically-acclaimed entertainment franchises of all time.
  • Your Legend – In Destiny you create your own legend as you and your friends venture out into the solar system to reclaim the treasures and secrets lost after the collapse of humanity's Golden Age. Over the course of your adventures you become more powerful, able to wield rare and exotic weapons, gear, and powers.
  • Adventure Awaits – Personalize and upgrade every aspect of how you look and fight with a near limitless combination of armor, weapons, and visual customizations. Take it all with you into every mode, including Destiny's story, competitive multiplayer, and public combat destinations. Return to The City, Destiny's third person social space to refuel, repair, and rearm before going out on your next adventure.
  • Connected Universe – Destiny is more than a disc in a drive, it is a persistent, online universe filled with other players. As the world grows and expands over time, so does the story, the destinations you can access, the activities you experience, and rewards you can earn.
  • A Social Experience – Destiny’s many destinations will feature areas called Public Spaces where players journeying solo or with friends will seamlessly cross paths with other players and Fireteams, some on similar missions, others engaging in completely different activities.
    • Public Events – Contained within some of Destiny’s public spaces are realtime dynamic events that players and Fireteams in the area can choose to engage in. These Public Events are short skirmishes where multiple players work together to defeat their common enemies and collect awesome loot.
  • Classes – Destiny features three unique classes to choose from, each with their own custom looks and abilities. Players will be able to crush their enemies as a Titan, vanquish foes as a crafty Hunter, or unleash incredible arcane energies on any adversary as a Warlock.
    • Titan – The first Titans built the Wall, and gave their lives to defend it. Now, you stand in the same high place, steadfast and sure, protecting all who shelter in your shadow. You hail from a long line of heroes, forged from strength and sacrifice. Our enemies may be deadly and merciless, but so are you.
    • Hunter – Hunters once prowled the wilderness and wastelands, taking big risks for even bigger rewards. You're no outlaw—at least, not anymore—but making your own luck has always meant bending the rules. Your unique brand of daring and ingenuity is needed now more than ever.
    • Warlock – Warlocks have long studied the Traveler, mastering some of its arcane energies. Its true purpose still remains a great mystery, but discovering truth has always driven you into the unknown. Now, our enemies are the only thing that stands between you and the lost wonders of our Golden Age.
