    This is by far the best game I have played in years. Three different classes to choose from. Titan, Warlock and Hunter. Play by yourself or with other people online. Has PVE and PVP areas to explore. Must buy for serious gamer.

    I'd never heard of this game but got it in a package deal. The fact it's fully loaded with the additional add ons makes it a nice deal. Nice graphics! Neat storyline. I'll be dedicating some time to really enjoying this game.

    The Taken King Legendary Edition is a great game that provides lots of game play hours and content. For someone who never played Destiny before, jumping on this version was a great choice and the graphics are incredible.

    I didn't do my research on this game, I only got it because my friends I play with online wouldn't be quiet about getting this game. The first I played this game I was on it for eight straight hours. With no smoke breaks.

    Actually, I would have given this 2.5 stars if I could. Bungie knows how to make a fun to play shooter, it looks great and the mechanics are fantastic. But that's not enough, there are two points I'd like to address. First, if you like a good, or even competent story in your AAA games, walk away from Destiny. Yes, the Taken King edition has added some late game story elements that are interesting, but it's all to brief, and if you want to get the most for your money and play the game from the beginning you are still stuck with the original story which is painfully bad, when it's even there at all. Second, since the story is so bad the game lives and dies on how much fun it is to play. The great mechanics make it a blast for the first two thirds, but they are hampered late game by the fact that you need to participate in multi-player raids and PVP to advance. If you don't have friends playing this game good luck with that. Bungie has done a horrible job in assisting "noobs", there are no chat channels, or in game areas where a first timer can go to start his first raid. Oh, you can use matchmaking to jump into one, but be prepared to have the more experienced players get angry at your lack of knowledge, or drop out because why waste the time explaining anything to the new guy. That is not fun, it's embarrassing and frustrating. The PVP Trials of Osiris is even worse in that you simply can't play it unless you have friends playing the game so they can form a Strike Team with you. I guess I'd recommend this game if you have friends interested in playing with you, you'll still be frustrated by the story, but at least you'll be able to participate in the full game. Otherwise, there are much better games, and specifically better shooters on the market.

    Love this game & Buy new do not buy USED

    BUY NEW!!!! There is a code that come with the game that you need to access everything this game is advertising. If you buy used, most likely that code is invalid. This game be very confusing at first. Especially for someone who isn't a bigger gamer. So if you have a friend that already has the game, they can show you the ropes and what to do. You will also want to have the PS Plus membership to get the full effect of the game. I bought this game at the end of June and I haven't played another game since. I have never been a 1st person shooter fan and mainly play sports games but this game is very smooth. There is so much to do on this game that it never gets boring. The maps can be repetitive but you are doing different things on the map. You can have friends help you with your quests. I can go on about everything you can do with this game but if you are a newbie when it comes to gaming and 1st person shooters like I am, you will love this game once you get the hang of it. FYI... A new expansion to this game comes out in September called Destiny: Rise of Iron. If you are thinking about buying this game, I would buy the Destiny: The Collection for $60 and it will give you every map and be current with everyone who purchased Destiny a few years ago. I paid $37.00 for Destiny: The Taken King and just recently pre-ordered the expansion Rise or Iron for $30. So look at all your options before purchasing the game.

    But I still recommend it to anyone who enjoys Call of Duty PVP shooters, because you are not expected to live long in PVP. A 1.0 KDR is satisfactory. If PVP isn't your thing...than I can still recommend this if you enjoy MMO's. MMO players understand that grinding is apart of their game. It isn't ideal, but it is a necessary evil. Destiny TTK has fixed a lot of the gear issues originally released with the game, but I cannot say it is perfect now either. As far as solo pve content goes, I have been playing daily for the last month because there is always something to work towards, secrets to be found, new missions to unlock (10/07/2015 New mission unlocked today). If you are a completionist...you will scream at this game, but if you want a great shooter, average story, and an amazing community of players. Destiny is the game I would recommend.

    In my opinion this is the closest you can get to halo while being on the PS4. Different from Call of Duty if that is what you are looking for and constantly expanding. weapons are fun to collect and use in multiplayer.

    I am not typically a fan of first person shooters, however the graphics won me over so I decided to buy it. I am incredibly impressed with this game. I enjoy this game much more on the ps4 than I did on the Xbox 360

    This games lacks a bit in plot as I haven't really taken too much interest in it. Playing alone isn't bad but it's definitely a lot more fun with others. If you have someone else to play with then this is a must; otherwise its a hit or miss.

    Destiny was already a great game, but combined with the two expansions and The Taken King makes this game much better. For those who have not purchased the original Destiny game, this bundle is well worth the money.

    I played and passed the fallen king so I had to get this one to continue it and I was not disappointed at all. There's so much more to do so the gaming doesn't stop. They added quests aside from bounties, love it!

    I used to have vanilla Destiny and traded it in because I really wasn't feeling it. I had the chance to cop this and so glad I gave it another go. It feels complete and I love it. Halo kids get immediately.

    The game play for this game is really good. As is the campaign which in my experience when the multiplayer is good the campaign rarely is just as good. That is not the case with this game. Good game overall.

    I got this on "Early" Black Friday Access and well, Destiny with complete expansions for 31.99? Worth it. A buggy game that grew over time and is now much better and more solid than when it first came out. Worth it on sale for sure

    I played the alpha and beta of Destiny, and loved it. Bought the game and disliked it. So when I heard this came with extra stuff (guns, immediately level to 25, and extra dlc.) Definitely worth getting!

    Fun and interesting MMO/FPS hybrid

    Destiny has seen a lot of flack at launch for a weak story, lack of content even less content in paid DLC updates. With the latest release The Taken King, Bungie has made changes to the base system of the game for a more fulfilling RPG/FPS hybrid, focusing on the more of the RPG side than messing with the finely tuned and great feeling gunplay. Questing is more fun with varied locations (still reusing assets from the rest of the game), new gun and armor types are available and some elusive exotics are unlocked through fun and engaging quests as opposed to loot rolls. With this package you get the physical Destiny base disc, plus entitlements for the previous DLCs along with the new expansion. Make sure you have plenty of HDD space because the content and patches take up a ton of room.
