In the Search For Truth

The Cosmodrome stuff we showed off at E3 is a tiny fraction of that space" 

If there's one interview you read today, I say let it be this one. Broony let us know that Eurogamer decided to cut the crap and try to figure out what the heck this Destiny game is actually about with a volley of questions posed to Urk and David Dague, and hey, I think it worked!

...how do we take things from an MMO and pull them in without both confusing the s**t out of everyone when we try to tell them what it is?"

I came out feeling like I had much better idea of how Destiny is going to play, in terms of encountering other players in the Wild,  branching game spaces, hanging out in the Tower, and much more. There's still plenty of unknown, but like Urk's said, Destiny is a different kind of a beast, and I think it's probably going to take jumping into the Beta to really understand it. In the mean time, there's a lot of nuggets in this one to hold you over!

Because Why Have One Article When You Can Have Two?

IGN has also posted a chronicle of the rest of that interview, this one covering much more breadth. There's a lot of reiteration on previous topics, but it's interesting to read about Bungie's perspective on the GTA Online troubles and negative connotations often associated with MMOs (not that Destiny is one, but it definitely borrows elements).

As our local Quantum Entanglement Communicator, Xenos, pointed out, the article says the Destiny Beta will be out in February... though I have no idea how IGN concluded that. Update: Yep, Urk just dropped a line in our forum that the Beta has no official release date yet.

Playstation's Destiny

Playstation Access tackled Urk and Deej on the topic of the Moon, classes, exotic weapons, seamless social experiences and the Beta. Thanks, Xenos!

The Hive Has Come...

Happy Halloween!

Extra Life for an Exo Print

As announced on last night's episode of dboTV, we're currently running a contest where you can win one of the prints from Bungie's "Ghosts in the Machine" concept art gallery by participating in the Destiny Community's Extra Life campaign. Only 20 copies of the Exo image above (by Jaime Jones) were sold, so this is a pretty awesome prize Beorn snagged for the DBO community! For all of the details on how to enter, check out this post /Sekhmet/ left on our forum. Good luck!

Bridging the Graphics Divide

"In fact, at times I'm challenged when I look at something on a big screen and I think, 'was that current or next-gen?'" Osborne added.

Eurogamer spoke with Urk about how Destiny looks on current gen and next gen, what the differences are, and if the current gen is left in the dust. What he has to say sounds promising, no matter what console you're gearing towards. Urk even dropped a line on the same subject in our own forum earlier this week!

Desti-Nation Is Your Destination

Our local smoke-signaler, Xenos, directed our attention to some questions Desti-Nation threw at Deej. Nothing really new, and a lot of Q's were posed at topics that have not been discussed or announced, but there's still a little meat to the conversation.

If Their Own Mailsack Wasn't Enough...

Our local telegrapher, Xenos, let us know that Bungie answered a few fan questions through IGN. Nothing really too new for Destiny followers, but there's a few subtle hints at things to come and slight twists on old facts that might make you ponder a bit!

Beauties from Bellevue

As seen in some of the articles posted this week, as well as showcased in the Weekly Update yesterday, some new concept art has been dribbling out of our favorite studio. Bungie's concept art gallery has been updated with these, and the gallery actually included a few I had missed, like this one, "Hive Lair".
