And now you know... the rest of the stories

A quick roundup of other info drops from around the web:

reddit_sm.pngreddit user FutureWarCult has collected screenshots from all the articles - you can scroll through them here. Lots of comments, as well. In the same vein, INSANEdrive found a native Russian speaker to translate some of the visible text in the shots.

theguardian.pngThe Guardian posted their review of the time they spent in Bellevue recently - it's full of fun tidbits. (Lots of them have been seen in other reviews - but some are unique.) It's pretty hefty, overall.

gamespot_logo.pngGamespot put up a piece discussing the lack of a PC option for Destiny (at least at launch), and the reasons behind this decision. Sort of nice to see an honest discussion of what ISN'T happening - usually, those are made impossible by marketing realities.

theknow.jpgThe Know (a gaming info channel from Rooster Teeth) has some of the choice bits about how characters and classes work, as the start of their week-long coverage of Destiny.

g_o_d.jpgroland let us know that tonight's Guardian Radio will feature DeeJ, live, on the stream - be sure to listen in! (It kicks off in less than an hour, so clear your schedule.)


For the most part, these links came from Xenos. One of these days, he'll fire me. Until then, I'll keep telling you what he finds.

A lot of ways to enjoy the action

playstationlogo.jpgPlaystation talks about strikes - and how good you'll feel playing them. Nice news tidbit - if you're at E3, you'll be among the first to get your hands on Destiny's competitive multiplayer. Woohoo! Xenos found it (surprise, surprise).

It's a shooter... but different

cvg.pngCVG thinks Bungie might have redefined the shooter (whatever that means). You can read their words, or watch their video preview. Who let us know? Why, Xenos, of course.

Eurogamer: Destiny is Halo... but better.

Eurogamer has both a video preview and a written discussion of what was good (and maybe not so good) about what they saw recently - they sort of felt like Destiny was Halo Plus. Go read, go watch. Thanks (of course) to Xenos.

Gamestop 'Exclusive' Pre-Order Sparrow

Gamestop has a new Destiny pre-order "exclusive" today: a quicker, faster, more durable, specially-painted Sparrow (and apparently it's back to "Sparrow"). petetheduck found the news over on GAME.co.uk, and JDQuackers was quick to notice some important small-print in our forum stating the limits of the exclusivity. It sounds like the pre-order bonus will grant you a quickly-upgraded Sparrow that everyone else can obtain by end-of-year. You can check out the 40-second ad spot here:
