How valuable is the boxed Deluxe Edition? Not really looking to make money off it, but I will not have any time to play and hesitant on cancelling my order.

Which system? I might be interested :sneaky:

PS4.

 

[purbeast0]

i know people who sold their ps4 preorders of the most expensive version (which i think was like $150 or something) for $350+ on ebay.

Not very...it is still available for sale online. Ghost edition though...selling for $400+ on eBay.

 

[cmdrdredd]

Dang, good to know. They told me I had to have the receipt since I moved.

If you moved to where you cannot get to the store you pre-ordered yeah you have to call that store and see if they can do a transfer. Your info is in the computer at the store you pre-ordered at. I wasn't specific and that was my fault.

I'm gonna have to just start preordering every collectible edition going forward.

For those who haven't seen it; if you buy the digital PS3 or Xbox 360 version, you get a digital upgrade to the next-gen version for free, and you can keep playing on your PS3/Xbox 360 as well.

I am going to go out on a limb here and say they actually are allowed to do ads for the game and this is just a marketing tactic.

No, the agreement Bungie has with Sony is that Microsoft can't advertise the game for its systems. It's the same type of deal that Microsoft has had with Activision for Call of Duty for many years.

Can you play on switch between PS3 and PS4 if you buy digital for PS3? I might wanna split screen Madden/MLB and Destiny.

I am not sure what you mean. If you have a ps4 why not play on the ps4? The difference between ps3 and ps4 for this game is pretty large.

So according to this, even though I don't have an XB1 yet, I can buy it on X360 and activate the XB1 version online? Then when I get the console I can just download it?

Yes that is how it reads to me.

Makes it tempting to get now. Too bad I only have a 4gb drive... maybe I'll finally swap out the 120gb I have laying around.

This would be a good deal if interested and you plan to get a newer console soon. I played the beta though and..eh, just wasn't my cup of tea. It amounted to basically borderlands it felt like...

No, it really is nothing like borderlands at all. We have been over this before. Refer to the beta thread.

I agree, it feels a little like borderlands I guess, but it feels a lot more like Halo than borderlands in my opinion. Ah well, to each their own.

Yes, because everyone should conform to other people's opinions

Better watch out, because you're wrong!

Large roam-able areas, loot drops, leveling up, FPS, missions....it definitely has a Borderlands feel to it. The different graphics and MMO-lite feel sets it apart though.

 

[ImpulsE69]

Yea, wasn't trying to hate on it or derail. For those interested it is cool they are doing the free upgrade thing.

 

[sze5003]

I'll be picking it up Tuesday. If I dont have a lot of work I'll try working from home Tuesday so I can pick it up during lunch time. I'm excited to visit the new planets.

No...borderlands had almost no story. Didn't have special missions that required teamwork, didn't have a central hub area, wasnt a shared world, didn't have public events bevause it wasnt a shared world, didn't have special PvP maps, and was a totally different theme.
