It was... Destiny
Destiny will be receiving a new expansion pack in the form of The Taken King and it'll be releasing later this year on September 15th of this very year, bringing with it some new sub-classes and enemies to blow to hell.

Live Say Goodbye to Raids and Hello to Destiny's Prison of Elders Right Here
Jail break
No, the Prison of Elders isn't a harshly named old folks' home - it's actually one of the main draws of Destiny's next DLC, House of Wolves. The download, which will be available later this month, doesn't feature a Raid, so the Prison of Elders will replace the traditional endgame activities - at least to some degree. As far as we know,...

The tower that refuses to fall
For all the online hate that Destiny gets, you'd think that it'd be a somewhat unpopular game. On the contrary, and as history has so often taught us, the most popular entertainment almost always comes under the most fire, and this is true of Bungie's sci-fi shooter, too, which is still being enjoyed religiously by its...

News Destiny's House of Wolves Won't Come with a New Raid
Wait, what?
Essentially the most important and time consuming end-game activity for any Guardian wanting to reach the highest light level, Raids have been a focal point as far as Bungie's concerned.

News Destiny Killstreaks Don't Get Much More Satisfying Than This
Sit down
Like any multiplayer shooter, Destiny should be a team game. Communication's sometimes the key to success, but there's not much you can do about a player who's decided that it's their, er, destiny to somehow grasp victory from the jaws of defeat. YouTube user David Scraggs did just that, as he managed to single-handedly turn the tide of a...

News Bungie's Looking into Changing Destiny's Crucible Rewards System
Gunning for gold
To say that Destiny's loot system can be a bit frustrating is an understatement.
