I'm getting the impression that this Sony favoritism is going to span the duration of Destiny and isn't limited to this first release.

I won't go into it, but I've also been made unhappy by Bungie switching sides, but my ire is mostly about exclusive content. Weapons, armor, a strike, and a multiplayer map? That is excessive. I only hope that, like the Gamestop Sparrow preorder bonus, these are actually timed exclusives and will be available on Xbox consoles at some point as well.

I understand that Bungie can't say a single nice thing about Xbox because of what ever contract they've signed, but I hope they actually secretly still like us and would do something like that--make sure all of Destiny is on all platforms.

The Alpha access to all of PS4 is what it is--this is an Alpha, Bungie needs the data to make the game better, so I hope they get that. Expecting an Alpha on all 4 platforms isn't really reasonable, I think.

I too have gathered the same impression. While the "switch" aspect is not exactly unexpected, the practically utter silence has. With Bungie going with more then one console for the first time (ever?) I had figured they would have used this chance to be more open. Yet, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if the causal viewer thought Destiny was a PS4 only game. That's what gets me. It's like their "coup d'état" was nothing more but a big joke, a tyrant replaced with a bit nicer one.

I'm a fan of Bungie in part due to its Humanity among being a business. The answer is likely money, but part of me wonders why they said yes.

As for the Alpha - yea its only four days. Yea - I'll be playing the beta in about a month. Its just unfortunate that I have to sit here hungry for a chance while I watch others eat because I don't currently have the cash to do so. Just another day.
