Oh that's fine. I enjoy PvZ Garden Warfare more than Halo, too, personally, but I won't pretend it's up to the same competitive standards as Halo.

Cool thing is, they're always in my library, can re-download them again anytime I want.
What if you buy a game and don't like it?
So your just going to keep deleting games off your HD every time you get a new game?
What happens to your saves?

You guys should head to the store. I just picked up my gamer fuel.
you are a stereotype
I'm not sure what to do. Dax has been like a leader/mascot figure to DGAF for a long time coming, but her choices as of late are...... questionable.
I'm waiting for the situation to develop before choosing a side.
Saves are all in the cloud. Only the install data gets deleted.

Zero?
You can delete games independent of saves. Disk based games are fully installed too. The only difference is if down the line you want to play a game you deleted you can just pop the disk in versus redownloading.
I think saves are saved locally separately from the game install, anyway.

Pushing aside the arguable point about Destiny not being up to the same "competitive" standards, how is that relevant in the face of quality in general?
CoD may not be up to the competitive standards of Halo, but it's wildly more popular and fun to most.

All I need is Alpha gameplay, a character that will last me a year, more loot and new planets, regions over the next two years. Give me that...and I'm in for the duration. (well, until Star Wars Battlefront)
The impressions have tapered my expectations for the immediate future, but I expect Destiny to be a slow burn for me.
Novels...expansions...

I feel like a lot of people had their expectations in check by the time Watch Dogs actually came out. Not the case here; I think the backlash will be bigger if it turns out disappointing.
The gamestop Im picking up the game at was selling pizzas 1$/slice or $6/box and about 20 ppl at 9pm
(the pizza wasnt even hot)
Opinions, how do they work?

if that happens then i'm not looking forward to seeing bungie's forums
You are correct. But they're all backed up online as well.
I've never deleted any game saves before. Just the install data.

Hey I figure if we're all supposed to write our own review then I should at least prep myself. It tastes good.
Ok makes sense, the only good reason for me going digital is to not find game disc and switching em.
More like the Killzone Shadowfall OT, people were pretty down on Watch Dogs even before the release impressions.

I would have gone just for the pizza (i actually prefer my pizza a little cooled off).
Mine usually gives it out for free. Either that or one of the fellow customers buys us food.
Destiny doesn't have a throwable glaive. It would be a better game if it did.
It sounds like some people didn't keep their expectations in check and are getting disappointed. Thats a shame. Kind of why I like to stay relatively in the dark. (I'm also quite lucky that I rarely ever get hyped. PvZ was the first game in years that I got super excited for.)

some people get too hyped imho. I already know what to expect and I'm still excited for it, mainly for making my sunbro though.

What edition? Where from.. Etc?
You need some Code Red in there.

Yeah, I highly doubt that would happen. It's odd though, because one would think that staggering the launch would be easier on the servers.
Impressions:
Your enjoyment with this game will vary greatly depending on whether you play with friends or not. You will most likely not have fun if you play by yourself. But with friends, it's a blast, especially the strike missions.
That said, it's a bummer the beta was a pretty decent chunk of the full game. I would have much preferred them just having the alpha, but going through a lot of those beta missions again was kind of a slog. I can already tell a lot of the missions will get repetitive, but having people I know playing with me makes it a lot more worthwhile
The graphics (at least on PS4) seem improved over the beta. Seems like there's less jaggies and overall better image quality.
Haven't had any server/network issues- everything has been rock solid so far.

Didn't I say it doesn't seem to be for fans of Halo MP? It's missing crucial Halo MP features like a ranking system, Theater Mode, custom games, doubles playlists, a forge-like feature, etc. I'm not saying it's not for fans of FPSs in general. I thought the beta was fun, too, but I don't know if it's sustainable fun yet.

This game is looking worse and worse..
Fucking mmo bullshit.
Give me a combat sandbox with good am, not these mindless drones that charge at you while numbers fly off them.

Same here. I LOVED Halo PvP back in the day, but my tastes veering towards RPGs and customization has me really liking Destiny' s "Bring your own Guardian to the fight" feel over Halo's "you are all clones of the same dude." Does not mean bad, but like Destiny's approach better^^
Yeah, it's the reason I went digital with Destiny. Normally I go physical for everything, but the beta was just so damned convenient being able to play it without having to put a disc in, plus the added bonus of no disc spinning noise.

halo guys have TMCC to look forward to in two months, which is more than they'll ever need.
does the disc spin loudly on the PS4?
Whoa whoa, we're currently trying to lower the hype level, not shit on the game. If you want to be all concerned there are other threads.

Why is it that any negative impressions are requoted on every page with "yup, just what I thought" and any positive impressions are ignored?

This is exactly how I felt about the alpha/beta. This sounds really disappointing. During the beta, I focused solely on PvP. I'm willing to bet the entire community will very soon. Hopefully you're just being hyperbolic...no offense or anything lol.
