Destiny is a classy lady.

Wait, really?

There was a 5-day ramp-up to this reveal. You heard NOTHING from them before last Tuesday...


Oh, come on. You can't say that with a straight face to anyone who's been remotely paying attention, here of all places. We knew Bungie was working on a game called Destiny at least two years ago. The hints were there even longer, but they were certainly nodding and winking to the fans with their O Brave New World ViDoc 18 months ago. This reveal has been a long time coming.

Now you're being disingenuous.

I was responding to Ibeechu's complaint that the ramp-up of hype didn't justify Sunday's reveal - and you respond that t-shirt sightings and in-game posters that could mean ANYTHING should be considered developer hype?

Now it's ME rolling my eyes.

The puzzle released last week was hype. Jonty Barnes showing up in a Seven Seraphs shirt for a ping-pong game with the Penny Arcade crew is NOT hype.

Please point out the 'hype' you're talking about, the 'hype' generated by Bungie that culminated in Sunday's reveal. Thanks.
