EG Review Is Up (Destiny)

But in the white heat of the Strike playlists - or in Heroic mission runs with a friend, or in the unheralded arrival of a public event whilst tooling around in Patrol - Destiny blazes a clear trail through the middle of the desolate no man's land that, for years now, has segregated the bombastic emptiness of shooter campaigns from the frenetic slaughter of multiplayer. And it does so with a poise and depth that its few peers - games like the charming but scrappy Borderlands and Far Cry - cannot match; a poise and depth that will keep people playing it for years.

I'd call that a honest-to-goodness fair game review, instead of a rushed collection of premature impressions, or a commentary on the hype, the gaming industry, the disconnect between the game and the reviewer's misshapen or misapplied expectations, or a myopic treatise focusing on whatever bête noire seems to be the most important factor in reaching a verdict today.

I like what these guys had to say about the reviews.
