What are you most hoping for from E3 re: Destiny?

Bungie FPS. Enough said.


Have you paid attention to nothing so far? We already know it is NOT A PURE FPS.

Um, I'm pretty sure Duncan's on-board. And "Bungie FPS" is probably more accurate than it would seem at first glance. Despite what the rampant speculation that's been running amok the last few months would suggest, we've been given relatively few real details about Destiny.

I imagine Destiny will break many genre boundaries that we (and the gaming industry) are accustomed to, so slapping on a current genre label would probably be doing a disservice to both the game and the genre. Calling it a "Bungie FPS" tells us only that it's a shooter game that will be played from the first-person perspective and that Bungie is putting their magic into it. And honestly, that's probably 75% of what we know at this point, so it seems an accurate title for the time being.
