What happened to an Xbox ONE Celebration?
Alright let us get this out of the way, I have been in a Bungie.net coma for over a week (I haven't been logging in). Thus, forgive my tardiness in posting this topic.
I would like to point out that the front page of Bungie.net has a News post celebrating the release of the Playstation 4. This post includes a video and announcement that playstation owners will be able to access the Destiny Beta a week sooner. I know, we have known that and that actually isn't what is bothering me. What is bothering me, is we don't have a news/blog post celebrating the release of the Xbox ONE.
Why would Bungie not celebrate the release of both consoles?
I am a Playstation 4 owner, and I was happy to see Bungie celebrate the release of my new machine. Yet, if I was the owner of an Xbox ONE or Bungie decided to celebrate the release of Microsoft's console instead of Sony's, I would be in a different boat. I find it disrespectful to many gamers and the console manufactures, to celebrate the release of a single platform.
As a Bungie fan, I wish to apologize to other Bungie and Xbox fans. I got something I didn't need. You deserve better from Bungie.

Activision most likely controls most of the marketing strategies for Destiny, and there might be a marketing deal in place with Sony to promote Destiny first on the PS4. Think of it like a marketing deal between Activision and MS for Call of Duty. There is not a hatred there for either console, but they are probably bared under agreement from actively promoting the Xbox platform with Destiny. Bungie has stated that they are committed to optimizing each version for their own respective console, which should be more important than seeing some logo branded on footage versus the other.
