I figure that if this was just Xbox One and Ps4 then graphically would still get the same deal we have now.

Maybe in terms of the 30fps decision (it is a Bungie game, after all), but the inner workings of the engine might differ significantly. Under the hood, Destiny was designed to play nicely with seventh-gen consoles right down to the light prepass rendering model with a 360-eDRAM-friendly 96 bit-per-pixel G-buffer.

It would have looked somewhat different as a strictly eighth-gen game, I think.

*Oh!* Yea. That's true. I don't think the over all look would be all that different though so close to the changing of the guard. We'll see how things look 2015 onword, or even once the beta hits since it just occurred to me that all we have seen is PS4 stuff.
