The only thing players new to the franchise need to know about Destiny is that expect Activision to nickel and dime you at every point, just like they did with the original, no matter how good the game is - the marketing practices wasn't.

shouldn't the digital deluxe version be cheaper than limited edition, since it does not have all those physical things???

@crusadernights: well, i do not get the point of hanging on to physical media, which can only be used by an always on connection to the game servers, or if the games get patched day one and constantly updated with various bug fixes, etc...

i am not saying it is wrong or one should not buy physical media, it's just personal preference, but judging others for not doing the same is a bit harsh...

if we are speculating the termination of any console / hardware's online service (e.g. psn, xbox live, steam, etc.) then one may not even install some of the games onto their hardware, or use it correctly... we are not living in those times when a game would get published without the possibility for it to get patched, i still have my n64 and its games, but the times have changed, at least my choice is buying digital, i am not judging those who buy physical, it is just personal preference, in some cases i do not get it, but i do not have to... :)

@MondasM: Digital provides no benefits to me. None at all. in fact, I can't sell a game which I don't play anymore or lend it to a friend. Plus I love having the case as I have a big video game library neatly organised on my shelf which looks mighty impressive to be honest. Each to its own though. :)

Why are they hyping this Clyde character so much? "oh look at me im sarcastic and try to act funny come buy my limited edition statue". We've had no character build on the story in the previous to remotely care about anyone and they're just shoving things down our throats already. Create a good story before trying to shove randomness down our throats Bungie.

@huss2215: Cayde is pretty much the closest thing Destiny has to a memorable character right now. Also, he's voiced by Nathan Fillion, and he's a pretty popular dude. Hopefully this sequel will have more of a story than the last game, and there will be other memorable characters in it. Nothing against Cayde or Nathan Fillion, I just don't want Destiny 2's story to be a one man show.

No artbook with collector's edition? That sucks.

Game + expansion pass for me then. Which platform should I go with? PC or PS4?

Well, hopefully they have something in place to cope with all Lag-Switch Cheaters.

I remember that being a big problem with Destiny, Destiny being a console only game.

@hrv_25: Depends on where your friends are. Destiny 1 wasn't nearly so great if you had to play it alone, and I'm guessing Destiny 2 will be the same way.

@Mogan: I have friends on both platforms. Pc version will be great but modders and cheaters ruin the game. Will PS4 pro produce 60fps?

Dammit I dont see any $500 collectors edition, I refuse to spend such a measly figure of $250 on this awesome game, I think I am going to hold out until they offer a more expensive edition.

A chance for 'story' and content redemption because the actually gameplay, that is movement, control and gunplay of Destiny is pure class.

You want Destiny 2 to rectify all of Bungie's past mistakes, but at the same time you also want to see the studio go up in spontaneous combustion. This is a hard game to even consider considering whether you're going to eventually pick it up in a couple years with its 8 dlc packs or not. And why on God's green Earth would you pay 250 dollars for this? You know how many better games you can buy with that money? Crazy. Just... back away real slow.

@ltjohnnyrico: You can watch gameplay videos and reviews provide useful insight on how the story and the gameplay mechanics pan out. I rather wait for one or two days than gamble my money away. Such an ignorant comment of yours. SMH.

@crusadernights: I read the odd review but usually after I have played the Game myself just so I can see if mine and the the reviewers opinions differ, but when it comes to buying Games .. no one knows what I like better than I do, so I always make up my own mind ... there are Games that the critics loved and I didn't and vice versa .. such is life !

@ltjohnnyrico: You just gamble with your money. I try to watch as many gameplay videos I can and read user as well as critic reviews. Generally it is enough for most to know whether they'll like the game.

I'll give you an example on how buying without any reviews or other opinions can get you a broken game.

Made effect: Andromeda. By no means I say its a bad game, but it's broken right now and I was smart enough to wait for reviews and user opinion.

@crusadernights: Of course I gamble with money .. what else would I Game with ? Marbles ? Conkers ? I usually only have the odd bet on Sports or maybe a trip to the casino if i'm feeling lucking but when it comes to Games I don't really call it a gamble its more of an informed decision ... I go from previous experience or from having my own hands on time with a Game .. I got Andromeda day one as I had already put 10 hours into it. So I knew what I was getting and I'm about 40 hours in now and enjoying it still ! I am also still enjoying playing Ghost recon with my pals and apparently some reviewers did't like it ... again each to their own !

@shamatuu257: In terms of hours spent, I have played Fallout 4, GTA V and Destiny more than any other game in the past 4 years by a wide margin. Easily. ESO would be up there too but that's an MMO. Fallout 4 and Destiny in particular get the angry rpg neck beards all riled up for some reason. Thanks for your pointless advice I'll go and pre-order with the money I earned now champ.

God. Holy porous sponge. How can this be? We know more about the packaging and the special editions than we know about the F ing actual game. And this is all coming from a well respected games company (Bungie). Where the F is your soul? How can anyone think this is going to be good game if you're showing of the packaging more than screenshots? What the F is wrong with them?

@Redsyrup: Don't act all shocked; this is how every big AAA game goes. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that spending a bunch of money right now on all these extras is a risky move if what you really want is a cool game, so if people still want to buy this stuff that's their call. They know the risks.

That's a cute purse that comes with the "special" collector's edition. I didn't think a lot of girls played Destiny. You learn something new every day.
