Looks ambitious, but they lost me long ago when they went console only. Bungie is dead to me, they don't exist.

"We did a bunch of ambitious things on Halo deliberately to reach out to people," Jones told us. "We limited players to two weapons, we gave them recharging health, we automatically saved and restored the game -- almost heretical things to first-person shooters at the time. We made the game run without a mouse and keyboard. And now nobody plays shooters the way they used to play them before Halo 'cause nobody wants to."

So what he's saying is that they ruined FPS games.

honestly the story of Destiny is mediocre at best, I'll pass. maybe if they based it on a universe like Hyperion by Dan Simmons, that would be cool, but this sci-fi rehashing is boring to me.

Worst thing about Halo for me was the silly cartoonish grunts running about flailing their arms and the overuse of pastel colors. Battle aftermath's looked like a kindergarten art class had exploded. Didn't much care for The Flood or 343 Guilty Spark either.

Just saw the game play footage from the PS4 event. Looks like almost a FPS Mass effect Halo mix.
