Bungie is also working with Dreamworks


It is too cloudy to tell but where is the last city?

I think it is near Europe


I'm calling Australia.

So is the last city on Earth a futuristic Puerto Princesca? Someone see if those mountains in This Picture match up with the topography!

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.


Active 9/1/11, Heroic 12/25/12

First person shooter or third person shooter? That is still the question.

Hey guys. I enlarged the star image with the large orb. In the stars, it says:

"Table head"
"Taquoros"
"Rinnunalian Ray"
"Bay Pc"

What's all this about?

So, did anyone else notice how the Destiny Logo pays homage to 2001: Space Odyssey?

Oh and for fun I can't believe how great the Destiny tease in ODST was <3

Confirmed by urk: That is not their image.
Thanks. Did he tweet? I must check.

Nevermind, I found it. False alarm people. That image I linked to a magazine cover doesn't belong to Bungie.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Why do you think the aliens are trying to kill us this time?

I got $10 on zealous religion

Seven hundred years is a lot of time to make enemies, especially if humanity are galactic litterbugs.

Perhaps the aliens are conservationists?


I get the feeling that Humanity is getting hunted down

We must go deeper.
I knew I recognized that from somewhere!
The ironic thing is that article came out in 2007. The same gun, helmet almost background scenery... pose.

Seems, oddly familiar.


Yeah confirmed by Urk on neogaf that its not their image.

By the time the trailer comes out, we'll have the plot figured out by pure speculation.

We might be going crazy with connections, probably a coincidence.

I haven't read about the Destiny storyline yet but I'm guessing that the giant sphere may contain something special. Maybe a weapon?

We found out where the map was right?

Maybe we are like Vault hunters looking for ancient alien weapons that everyone else wants.

So, SE Asia/Oceanic region?

I imagine the geography would be different by the game era.

I think that Humanity is being forced under the sphere because they have no where else to run.

Tut, tut... Copy and paste concept art...

WOAH, even the gun looks similar.
To be clear: that is meaning that the "copy and paste concept art" was not done by Bungie.

OT: For those who aren't caught up on the star map situation, it's not a star map at all. It's this, a map of Puerto Princesa, perhaps the location of the last city?

Read about that a while back. I just wasn't sure what to call it.

  • 11.27.2012 5:52 PM PDT

How in the hell is this last city surviving against an onslaught of aliens from all corners of the universe (sometimes I think they mean Galaxy)? That ship above must be incredibly advanced.
