Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

More like *insert generic sci-fi solider here*.

There's nothing generic about a man wearing an armour holding a long-range weapon, wearing a Bane-like mask and to top it off, wearing a red cape with an anglo-saxon crest on it.

I don't know why, but this comment made me think of Stormtroopers in Stilletos and I found that the haunting-ness of the song went well with the starkness and feudalism of the released artwork.

Which then has me wondering what Marty and Sir McCartney have to add/enhance these sorts of potential visuals.

that is actually a german eagle from the HRE, NOT anglo-saxons..

I really like how it looks and the solider walking besides the Mech or whatever it may be look pretty sweet.

It's Bungie's art style. Just like any other medium's director (an author, a movie director, a music artist) would have a style.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I think this pic may be a fake. The person looks like a player model (with Arbiter's helmet) and the background looks too real for concept art. The gun also looks suspiciously familiar . . . Can anyone tell if it is from Mass Effect or something?

I hope this game isn't going to be rated T for teens.

There's just something about playing an M rated game rather than a T rated game. The M rated game is going to contain more adult themes ( Blood , gore , language etc...) which makes it much more enjoyable.

I think that's one of the real ones. I'll get back to you on that.

I like how IGN puts their fatass watermark on the pieces like it belongs to them.

As has been said before, these were never meant to be seen by the public, ergo they were not all hand-drawn. In fact, the completely hand-drawn ones are the nonofficial ones (barring the one DeeJ has posted). All the photoshopped ones are like mock ups. The step before a prototype. They don't look pretty, but they get across the general idea of what's trying to be communicated.

Just about everything IGN does drives me into a blinding rage, so I try to ignore them whenever possible.

Unfortunately, it's impossible in this case, so instead of merely hoping that the leaker gets hit by a bus, thanks to the leaker deciding to leak to IGN rather than some other site, I now hope that he falls into a pit filled with snakes with malaria.

I feel like going into photoshop and removing all the watermarks. Also, this just makes my skin crawl...I know this isn't Bungie's work, what the hell?! This picture has absolutely nothing to do with Destiny. Is this what happens when a game gets cancelled? Everything that has been published prior to project cancellation becomes fair game to do whatever they want with?

It's worth noting here that IGN is a News Corp / Rupert Murdoch property. That probably explains . . . everything.

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

I didn't know Star Wars was about the last city on Earth seven hundred years into the future, where humanity finds itself fighting monsters and aliens that creped into the solar system from the dark depth of space, in midst the ruins of a Golden Age, and now and, we--the young knights tasked to defeat this evil--have some tea with the Traveler; a spaceship the size and shape of a small moo--- Oh.. Small moon, knights, aliens, and a tank with similar shape and colour of the Trade Federation hover tanks.. Yup it's Star Wars.

I'm sorry for teasing you, couldn't help myself. ;)

Sure, there are similarities, but--judging from what we know--they are few compared to what it's able to amount to as a whole.

I really like this universe, even though we've got so little to go on.

I highly doubt it will because A) Activision already has the most successful MMO of all time and competing with itself would be silly and B) They would've just called it an MMO in the contract.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Posted by: chickenlittle
Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

I see no flaw in competing with yourself. No matter who loses, they still win.

But I agree, it will likely be an RPG with MMO elements.
