I recall hearing that they weren’t doing one.
Or was that for a Limited Edition?

Well, if they aren’t making one, i might get the Titanfall one.
Out of curiosity, what do people see in limited edition consoles? I’m honestly wondering as I have always preferred the generic version.

Some of them look cool, and they come with specific game that the console is themed after.

Hope you enjoy it & the games you’ll be getting for it. When I got mine, I had two games, AC4 & Battlefield 4. One is good, the other isn’t. (guess which one I didn’t like!)
Added spoiler in the next section in the interest that people don’t want to know about my games collection for XB1
So the games I have now (ones I haven’t traded in) are:
AC4
Tomb Raider
MGSV: GZ (got it for a REALLY cheap price, we’re talking like £5 here)
Thief (just got it recently & I haven’t had much time to play it)
Titanfall
Wolfenstein The New Order
Halo Spartan Assault
Max Curse of brotherhood
Guacamelee
Those last three I got for free, anyway.
EDIT: I’d love a link to the Warthog Cupholders thread, just for nostalgia.
Also: “Master Chief is die” lmao.

I personally like the feeling of self-entitlement that cones from owning them. Not to mention that they look nice.
> Out of curiosity, what do people see in limited edition consoles? I’m honestly wondering as I have always preferred the generic version.
The whole ‘limited’ thing to be fair. Although these days, they don’t end up being limited.
Most people who own limited edition consoles simply like the look of them. I’d totally want the MCC console, or a white Xbox One.

I have the limited edition Halo Reach xbox. I personally think it looks better than just about every other 360 I’ve seen. 
The silver matte and the Oni stuff on it is nice!
> Not sure how legit this is, but if it is 100% legit, GG Bungie, GG.
Okay? Did you see the size of Old Russia? And then there are at least 4 other places that size too.
> Not sure how legit this is, but if it is 100% legit, GG Bungie, GG.
That one area is pretty big, and I mean big. At least 5 of those big areas is a pretty good deal

They wont. If they were having trouble hitting 1080p before the Kinect reserve was patched, they’re not going to use it for the Kinect.

Not for a game that cost 500mil to create.
The beta was basically 1/4th of the actual game.

Sounds like an exaggeration to me.

Bungie stated the Beta was close in size the Alpha, & the Alpha was said to have been 10% of the final product. However, just recently, Bungie have come out & said that there will only be 1 “zone” per planet (So Earth only has Old Russia at launch). The number of planets in the retail version is a bit unclear, but we know there’ll be Earth, the Moon, Mars, Venus, & possibly places like Europa, Saturn etc. I heard that Mercury is used for special PvP maps (I’m not sure on that), & on top of that, we got stuff like The Crucible & The Iron Banner & so on. I’m guessing the DLC will add new zones (or maybe even planets) to the game?
EDIT: That $500mil is for the whole franchise, not just the game.

Okay, the beta was about 1/6th of the actual game.
I’m still pretty excited for the rest of Destiny. Old Russia still had quite a few blocked off areas and areas populated by Lv.??? enemies making it impossible to really progress in said areas. Add huge areas like that to other planets, along with possible new areas via DLC AND the Crucible, I think I’m going to have a grand time.

Well I’m getting Forza 5, Fifa 15 and Dance central Spotlight with it for free.
I’m only keeping Forza. Probably give those other ones away

I just hope the DLC isn’t too heavily priced, I’d be willing to pay a fee for new areas, but nothing too much.
& for some reason, I feel like I’ll be playing PvP quite a bit too, like Dark Souls-& that game was probably more famous for its PvE, rather than the PvP. Of course, I hope Destiny will have good incentive to replay the PvE portions. Actually, I’m really looking forward to going to Venus & fighting the Vex (those time-travelling robots?) they’re the most intriguing enemy faction to me. Were Mars & Venus included in the beta? I didn’t play it so I need to ask.

Never been a huge fan of racing games, but I do enjoy racing games like Jak X & Mashed Fully Loaded, the ones with combat in them.
