A lot of changes Guardian
All the changes we know Bungie has planned for Destiny 2
Destiny 2: Shadowkeep is not just an expansion, it's an entirely new chapter for Destiny 2 and Bungie as a company. Here's everything we know so far.
The Destiny 2 beta looks great on PC
The Destiny 2 beta for PC is live right now, up through August 31. If you haven’t played it yet and you have a PC that can handle games at all, it’s worth checking out. I dove in to see how it looked and played, checking out the story content, as well as the quickplay multiplayer the three-player strike mission. Joey Davidson and I checked out the original Destiny at launch and found it...
Destiny 2 is releasing early so we don't tank the servers
Usually when a game’s release date changes, it means we’re going to end up waiting. Once in a while, though, a hotly anticipated game gets moved forward instead of pushed back. Destiny 2 just happens to be one of those, but it wasn’t a move Activision and Bungie made to thrill fans. It turns out there’s a very good reason. It’s because if they released it on a Friday as planned, we’d...
Halo: Reach performs worse on Xbox One than Xbox 360
Alongside fan favorite Xbox 360 title Doritos Crash Course, a smaller and lesser-known title called Halo: Reach was added to the Xbox One’s backwards compatibility list a couple weeks back. I’ve only really gone back to play Spelunky and Pac-Mac CE DX+, but others players have put in some time with the Halo prequel and found its performance to be somewhat lacking. Where the game holds...
Screenshot Saturday: Destiny's The Taken King - If I had all the time in the world
When I first played Destiny last fall I was immediately taken by how good the shooting felt and how good the game looked. The game’s leveling system and focus on grinding, among other things, put me off, and it was only a few weeks before I was done kicking the soccer ball around the Tower. Month after month, though, I watched my friends post about it on Twitter and Facebook, about the...
Bungie apologizes to Destiny fans with another tone deaf offer
It might seem like Batman fans are the angriest gamers right now, but Destiny fans are giving them a run for their money. Following some pretty dismal interviews, Bungie has apologized officially and offered up a solution. Kind of. The short version is this: The first Destiny expansion to come out that isn’t part of the game’s initial season pass, The Taken King, is set to hit this...
This Destiny interview is incredible and very upsetting
The Collector's Edition of The Taken King has exclusive content that you can't get anywhere else. It's also $80.
Destiny Theme Now has a Music Video With a Singing Hologram
Sir Paul McCartney famously provided the theme song "Hope For the Future" for Bungie's Destiny in preparations for the game's release, and now he has just released what has to be the laziest music video on the face of the Earth through Wired. How is it lazy? Well, let's just say that Bungie just needed to choreograph a few minutes of Destiny footage, using a handful of character models...
Bungie Exec Swatted, Wakes Up to Police Helicopter Over His House
An unnamed executive at the studio behind Destiny and the first few games in the Halo series woke up early Thursday morning very confused about why there was a helicopter above and police officers surrounding his home. It turns out the Bungie executive had been swatted. The exec is the latest in a string of incidents known as swatting: Someone places a false call to police, reporting...
