Bungie's reveal: a disservice to Destiny

I'm of the opinion that this was planned this way all along. It seems similar to the Halo 3 reveal where the press got to see Bungie fly the camera around the Chief and the New Mombassa portal scene but nothing more.

Every single Halo reveal post Macworld 1999 was done to an audience who knew somewhat of what to expect. When talking about the Halo sequels, the core fundamentals of the gameplay were already known: at this point you can say that a reveal sets out two sets of expectation: story and visuals. Everything else is easy enough to fill in.
