Although this game has a shorter storyline than the Halo series did, it does not let down in gameplay or action. This game was engineered for replaying over and over. The more you level up, the better gear you get, the better you can serve out defeat in multiplayer matches. I just wish more of my friends had the same system I had so we could all play together! At least they are all playing it!

Great graphics. Love the ability to explore new areas of the game & not restricted solely to the storyline. Online multiplayer is very well done.

My boys love this game. Lots of levels, multiplayer and Destiny Elite status for a small additional fee. Hours of fun, after homework of course.

An amazing game well worth the money!
I bought this for my sons and they love this game. The graphics are fantastic! The storyline is intriguing... and the online play is a lot of fun.
They enjoy this game and play it on a regular basis. I'd recommend this game to anyone who wants a little something different than the usual first person game.
Enjoy!

This is my first purchase of an online only game. I usually buy games for the story and campaign instead of the online play. My friends convinced me to buy it and play Destiny with them. I wasn't disappointed. It barely has a story, but the character building, random optional quests, co-op, and pvp is a lot of fun in general. There is something new every week as far as quests and items. I definitely recommend this game, especially since the price drop. My only problem now, is finding time to play it.

The clerk sold me the digital add-on and it was not enough to cover the actual purchase because of tax. I tried to settle this with BestBuy and they said that it was out of there hands. I have a Microsoft account with 35 points and no add on to destiny. I am pretty disappointed because I buy all of my things at Best Buy. Please educate your staff at the counter as for one of my purchases they explained nothing to me. Luckily I was smart enough to find my activation codes on my receipt.

So graphic and audio are very nice even for the Xbox 360, so can only imagine how much better it would be on a new console.
My only gripes.....
1. Some of the challenges are pretty tough if you're a player going at it alone. I saw some game play on line using two people and it took them like 15 minutes versus my hour and I still was unable to complete the challenge. Your player starts off pretty week and some of the challengers will take a lot of hits before getting rid of them.
2. You go to complete a mission and you do. However sometimes if you select another mission you have to go back through an area you already cleared only to have to fight again. Also some missions make you go back to areas you have already been except this time it will let you go a little further.
3. Some of the bosses are extremely tough. Best to use a tactic of shoot and pull back to avoid damage. One of the hardest challenges is the one about opening the array.....there are three waves of hoards and then three bosses. If you make it past the first wizard and say you die right after that....you guessed it, all the way back to the beginning....that part is not fun....

At first I was like I hope this is not another online only game like Pitfall, but to find out, this game is awesome. The graphics even on an Xbox360 are sweet. The game plays very well. The only issue is you now have to wait for a DLC inorder to enjoy the game more. I wished the game story mode was longer though.
