Destiny Goes Gold Ahead of Release

Lee Bradley

Gold (gold). Always believe in your soul. You've got the power to know. You're indestructible. Always believe in… because you’re, Gold! 

Sorry, I can’t help but get that song stuck in my head every time a game goes gold. This time it’s Bungie’s Destiny that's planted an earworm. The game is now complete and ready to be shipped, ahead of its September 9th release.

"Destiny is done, in some respects. Even now, so close to the end, it still feels like we're just getting started,” said Bungie. "This is not even our final form. Though Destiny may be basking in the gold light of release, we're already looking ahead to the next milestone, and the next one after that."

Bungie has already put a date on the game’s first expansion. The Dark Below hits in December and will be followed by House of Wolves. Both expansions come as part of the game’s season pass.

  • Thanks. Now *I* have it in my head >:(. Oh well I guess it could be worse and be call me maybe... Shit, now i got both......
  • Definitely looking forward to it. But for some reason a part of me is still unsure about it. Will wait for some reviews and fan feedback before purchasing.
  • Haha no way I get it in my head too
  • Beta was ok i wouldn't say it was as good as all the hype it has had but that's just my opinion
  • Spandau Ballet ...that brings back some distant memories. Gosh now I feel old :) Waiting for reviews from fellow X360A gamers before I buy Destiny.
  • It's ready to go until the day one update patch.
  • Finished 2 weeks before launch. I'm sure they caught all the bugs then.
  • I'm a sucker, so I'll end up buying this game at launch. However, I'm not impressed by them announcing a planned DLC for it before the game's even out. That to me just screams "Nickle N' Dime".
  • I can't wait to play it! i missed nova bombing everyone with my sexy warlock :D
  • I wasn't that hype when I played the beta, but I'm still looking forward to buying Destiny and playing many hours with friends. I've bought worse games in the past. (Not saying Destiny is bad at all)
  • @9 Same here miss my sexy Awoken Warlock. I've had dreams Nova Bombing my foes. Now I really want to play it.
  • "this is not even our final form" dragon ball z reference =D anyway, who cares itll probably get released to over inflated reviews and be dead online within a year. still getting it for the experience though!
  • Full list of Destiny Collector’s Card Codes to redeem: YKA-RJG-MH9 3DA-P4X-F6A MVD-4N3-NKH TCN-HCD-TGY HDX-ALM-V4K 473-MXR-3X9 JMR-LFN-4A3 HC3-H44-DKC 69P-KRM-JJA 69P-VCH-337 69R-CKD-X7L 69R-DDD-FCP 69R-F99-AXG 69R-VL7-J6A 69X-DJN-74V 6A7-7NP-3X7 6A9-DTG-YGN I did it and they all work. Can't wait to see what I unlocked! Enjoy :D
  • Hopefully Destiny is what Bungie is hyping it up to be. This better be the best game I've played in my entire life, because that's definitely what Bungie is acting like they've created. I was going to get this day one, but I think I'll wait for some reviews a couple months down the road (once the hype falls down).
  • I never followed any of the Destiny hype so when I played the Beta, it was just jolly fun. Still reminds me more of SWTOR over Borderlands and Mass Effect though :) .
  • I seem to be having the opposite problem as a lot of people. I went into the beta expecting it to be rather disappointing and came out wanting to play so much more.
  • @16 same here. Trying to figure out where it fits in for me though between both madden and nhl ultimate team...
  • The game has no competitve value at all but the coop is fun. They should have just done without the crucible mode.
  • Cant wait until midnight!
