At 1:30 PST, (and 4:30 EST) the Activision earnings call is happening. And as we all know, Bungie is now in a partnership with Activision, and during these calls, upcoming games are usually mentioned.
Of course the majority of the call will be related to CoD, Blizzard's IPs, and Skylanders, but as Destiny is much anticipated, I think they may mention it, even just in passing. So in just a little over half-an-hour, we may know just a little bit more regarding Destiny!
Edit:
Well all in all, here's the TLDR of any Destiny information;
- Plans to be genre defining.
- No release date at this time.
- Apparently they plan to market it reasonably well.
- It's one of their focus' for the year.
Sorry if it's not anything new, but hey! Some news is better than no news!

So, after listening to the earnings report, would you invest? Despite the economic climate, I would put activision down as a long term buy. I figure that by this time this year, Activision/Blizzard with be 18+ with .20+ dividends.

Great work, sir.
-
So you have to sign something to watch the webcast? I'm going to go ahead and take your word, OP. I can't wait until it's officially announced.
-
Very cool, thanks for filling us in man. Its awesome to see its such a high priority for the year.
-
I want to listen to it but I don't want to sin up for it.
-
Thanks for the news man, it's better than nothing.
-
Well someone just asked about what their idea is with launching conflicting genres, regarding Bungie's IP and Call of Duty. So hopefully we'll hear something.
-
Too bad we can't get someone to ask a question about Bungie and their IP..
-
They're talking about it right now. They don't have a launch date at the moment, they look forward to sharing more news about it in the future. It's set to be genre defining, and they plan to be marketing it rather heavily. (I think.)

Edited by Regicide: 2/7/2013 9:45:01 PMDidn't they already tell us that the game will be revealed within weeks. And not days? Don't know for sure, just speculation, thought i heard it from a video a few hours ago.
-
They say that they plan to focus on their primary franchises, along with Bungie's new universe.
-
Well it was just mentioned, along with Call of Duty China, saying that both will, (not word for word) "revolutionize their respective categories".
-
I expect them to yell, "We're rich bitches", and throw down the phone.
-
Diablo 3 sold 12 million copies, insane! lol
-
Doubtful. These things happen quarterly and are generally look back, not ahead. That said, sometimes things slip out but it's rare, and given that Destiny's release is still probably 2-3 quarters away, I doubt we'll hear anything this time.
-
I doubt we will get much, if anything, from this. I hope we get something though.
-
I'm hesistant, but keep us posted, just in case.
