Preview by Sam M. Randal’s Monday begins with a fellow called Randal celebrating with newly engaged Matt and Sally. As the night escalates, as does the bar tab, and Randal somehow ends up in possession of a magical ring, the same ring Matt was going to give to Sally. The…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. At a glance Destiny seems to check most of the boxes I was looking for from a game, with excellent visuals and tight shooting mechanics to go with some MMO/RPG elements to keep me coming back for more. It is difficult to view Destiny within a…
