Destiny is, in fact, a pretty good game trying some old tricks in new ways. It's just not going to change your life...
Impressive visuals and scale, Immersive setting and gameplay

To an extent, it scarcely matters. The game has already recouped its $500m development budget , giving developer and publisher alike reason and confidence to move forward on expansions and sequels. It deserves them, as well -- as shooters go, it's hard t...
