First look at gameplay

Bungie took its sweet time before revealing the first gameplay ofDestinytonight during Sony’s E3 press conference. Was it worth the wait? That remains to be seen, but I like what was shown.

It came across as a mix ofBorderlandsandHalocombined with the dynamic online events ofGuild Wars 2— in other words, eff yes. What we saw in tonight’s demonstration — backed by the promises made for online co-op play — has me feeling optimistic.Destinyis coming to PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. And, with a little luck, possibly PC one day too.
