Conveniently glossed over in this announcement: more Sony favoritism that serves as a middle finger obnoxiously shoved in the face of every Xbox player who has been with Bungie via Halo for well over a decade and telling them that they are not worth a damn compared to a lucrative deal with a former rival. And it's not the first time this blatant favoritism and infantile pandering has reared its ugly head in the realm of Destiny. It started out innocent enough; some exclusive armor that would be made available to the other side at a later time, and it didn't take long before we all realized that by the time we have access to this content, it would be ultimately worthless compared to the gear we've already acquired, thus the only Xbox players who benefit from this content being made available to them are the ones who won't buy the game until said content is available (and if they have their ear to the ground listening to what the community has to say, the vast majority of them will NOT be purchasing Destiny at any time). But then it got worse. We find out that Playstation players also got an exclusive strike, giving them more content, more "story" (if what we have here can be called a story at this point) and more chances to earn gear and with one more strike in the list, they have a slightly less repetitive experience (but only slightly). Now you've got your first DLC expansion lined up and once again Playstation players are getting the executive treatment while the Xbox players (you know, the community that kept your studio in business for over a decade and that you claim to be so grateful for yet immediately chuck aside because somebody waved something green in your face), they get nothing but a vague promise that "sometime" next year it "should" be made available. No. It SHOULD be made available the same time as everyone else, or else why the hell did we buy it in the first place if we can't get the full experience until Sony decides to unclench their collective anuses? Bad form, Bungie. Bad form.
