The news here is that Sony got feedback from Bungie while they were developing the PS4, and that's just smart on Sony's part. I mean, Bungie helped design the Xboxes and Xbox Live. They know a thing or two.

Regarding the rest, Activision and Bungie still have work to do. On the Xbox and (further back) Mac platforms, Bungie has a core fan base who will buy anything with Bungie's logo on it. Many Playstation users have, for the most part, spent a decade trying to ignore the appeal of Halo, much as Xbox fan boys have spent that time trying to ignore Uncharted.

I've been listening to more playstation podcasts over the last several months, and Destiny is still just a blip to many people. They talk about it because they have to, but it's in the same way they talk about COD, wondering how successful it will be, etc. There are playstation thought-leaders out there who are not breathlessly excited about the game itself. I'm hoping that changes. It'll be good for Bungie's world domination plans. :)

Also, Bungie is in a better place. They're not owned by Sony or Microsoft or even Activision.

I think the future is bright for all Bungie fans and soon-to-be Bungie fans.
