All that advertising really does work

Even Spotify had ads about Destiny after every 5 or so songs...

I wonder if the division is going to be this successful.. I sure hope so, they better make and advertise it well because I'm excited about the idea

I seriously hope so. You can never tell until its released or at least some open beta testing has occurred .

Still pretty disappointed there is no PC version of Destiny.

Personally I prefer them concentrating on one version at a time, I feel if they did pc and console at the same time then not as much work would be done to the game itself.. but I agree.. I still sucks not having a PC version

The game looked interesting enough at one point, kinda Borderlands-ish, but with more players. I guess I'll give it a spin one day, but for now I've got more than enough games that need completing.

This is why the game sold well.
Halo has an insanely large following all over the world, and Bungie (Creator of Halo) is behind Destiny.
I knew from the get go the game would do well purely on that basis, from what I've played its pretty good but nothing groundbreaking, it plays and feels a lot like borderlands.

Let's just hope that this 'hyped' game doesn't turn out like Star Wars TOR did...
