PS3 and PS4 to get early access to Destiny beta

At E3 this year it was announced that Sony and Bungie had some form of partnership for Destiny, last night at the Playstation 4 event it was revealed that the PS3 and PS4 consoles will have early access to the beta next year.

While it's not as big as a full retail release timed exclusive, it's still pretty cool for Playstation owners. People who were going to buy both next gen systems will probably go with the PS4 version for this multi platform release. I doubt anyone who was going to buy an Xbox One is going to jump ship for slightly earlier access to a beta though.

Now for some Destiny news we can all share in, we have a new teaser trailer. It only goes for about a minute and a half and is interrupted slightly by the Destiny team congratulating Sony on releasing its new console: [yframe url='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZ6MNSdUZ20′]

It looks like the trailer is showing off some more of ‘the moon' mission that we saw in a previous trailer when the beta was originally announced.

Destiny has a planned release window- mid 2014. It will release on the PS3, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox 360. Much like GTA V, there is no word on a PC release.

Kitguru Says: The game looks pretty cool but I'm hoping it doesn't end up being a re-hash of Halo because well, I didn't enjoy Halo. Hopefully this will come to PC eventually too because I don't plan on pulling my 360 out of retirement.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
