No kidding.
My point was that we already know this will be out for 360, Durango, Orbos and PC since that's what said contract states.

What are you trying to say?
Stop reaching
No, the contract only states Xbox platforms, PC, and MAYBE PS3 for the first game. The later ones would be on all platforms though.
Unless I've read it all wrong and I apologize.

Why are you assuming Destiny will be good after how bad reach was?
That was one of the lines Elites would shout after they killed you in Halo 2's campaign. It was facetious.

Sadly PC isn't on the list for the first game in the contract 
. I'm hoping that changed.

Yeah, I know where the quote was from. I just couldn't tell what you were trying to say with it.

I don't understand how this is the reason you say it's "safe to assume"... The ability to sign in to their website with a PSN account (relatively easy work to do) is much different than them creating the game for the PS3/PS4. We know Bungie is working on a Playstation version, but it may not be out until 2014/2015, based on the leaked contracts.

"From the creators of Halo".
Kinda feels like Destiny is in fact going to be timed exclusive (next gen), why else would MS allow Activision to use the Halo name in their marketing?
Os is that permitted by law?

I'm hoping that this game is going to be on the PS4 as well, some signs seem to be pointing towards it.
Permitted by law. It's a factual reference.

I said it's safe to say it's coming to Sony platforms. Where did I say it would come out at the same time?
it mentions durango too

Haha oh my god. That's almost sinful.
Odd indeed. Doesn't even match up with the faction logos.Has the double o seven thing been discussed?
Odd.
You read it wrong. It's coming to PS3. Whether it's coming in 2013 or 2014 is the debatable bit.
Why would you add PSN functionality to the site when it won't used for two years?
PS4 at launch? Maybe not. PS3? Almost definitely.
added box pic
anyway, no permission is needed. There's even a disclaimer at the bottom of the poster that says Microsoft is not affiliated with the game.
"Halo is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corp. in the US and/or other countries. Microsoft is the not the publisher of Destiny. Activision has no affiliation with Halo."
Sorry, I meant at launch.

I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft gets some exclusive halo style armor / weapons and maybe an exclusive map or two but that's it.
The contract states it will be on both platforms as well as PC so there shouldn't be any question about that.

If they say PS3 or PS4, but not both, my vote is for PS4. PS3 version would bomb so hard compared to Durango and PC versions.
That would be pretty damn awesome, but for some reason I don't see it happening.
Also Destiny 1 won't be on PC.

That alien with the four arms looks pretty boss.

Only the next game in the franchise will release on PC it seems.
Destiny 1 : PS3/360/720

Activision would never allow it, not enough guns.
It's a shame because that poster is fantastic.
We have the 2010 contract. It's just that people have been wondering if it's still the same in 2013.
That PS3 would also be a year late if it stuck to it.

Interesting comparison. I hope it is apt.

This comparison may be inverted, this is sounding like halos minute to minute gameplay with a new structure while mass effect was basically kotors structure with new minute to minute gameplay.

First thing I noticed, too.

Is there hope that the terms of the contract have changed ?
I would welcome such game on PC, alas that won't happen in 2013.
It's funny because while GAF might hate it, that line instantly locks up millions of pre-orders.

No doubt. I can't blame them one bit for it. It's just funny.
There's always hope.

Yup, it would be dumb if they didn't run with that.

The publishers of Call of Duty thing is being over exaggerated. Bungie isn't in the same spot Infinity Ward is, who is owned by Activision. Their just trying to get money from those who don't keep up with the gaming news. I'm sorry that Bungie is a business, everyone.

Even if MS bought a timed exclusivity, I can't see it being worth it for Activision. Releasing a year later on PC and other systems will undoubtedly affect the games sales on that platforms. I suppose buying the exclusivity could make up the disparity though.

Given that this contract was made 3 years ago, sounds like they didn't have the foresight to know when the generation was ending. It would be a little ridiculous to release a PS3 game in 2014, no?
To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if it was strictly all next gen at this point. It does seem extra intriguing that the 360 and PS3 logos were nowhere to be seen on that poster.

Nah, there will be a dude with a gun on the box art.
If it's MS exclusive for year, I seriously doubt it's because MS paid for it. Timed exclusives aren't just exclusive for a period, they keep silent about the other SKUs until the contract allows, and Bungie hasn't hid there are PlayStation versions in developed, they've advertised for PS3 experienced staff, and they've integrated PSN into their site. That could just be because once the contract leaked they couldn't hide it though, who knows.
They've hired a ton of PS3 programmers, so I'd be surprised if there weren't current gen versions as well.
Someone on the forum said their Bungie friend said it was somewhat different now, but I have no idea if this person actually has a Bungie friend.
