Review of Destiny: the Taken King Legendary Edition

 6 weeks ago... a Mass Relay code named "Omega 4" appeared in the dgr sector. Beyond that relay is the coveted Fulgore Award. Many games have ventured beyond the relay to claim the award. Nobody made it out alive. This week the Traveler  decides to have a crack at it. With him- an entire army of skilled warriors in known space. The Guardians(Halo 5 cliche*ding*). Could this game  end Bioware's reign of Terror, or will the  infamous Omega 4 Relay claim another victim? let's go to war!


This game is the complete Destiny experience(at time of posting). This game has the base game and ALL 3  expansions- the Dark Below, House of Wolves and the Taken King. In this game you play as a guardian, who has to defend Earth from The Darkness led by the Taken King.The accessibility scores are as follows

Visibility 10
This game has a host of color blind modes- a massive improvement when i reviewed this game shortly after launch! Well played Bungie!

Audibility 10
This game has in-game subtitles! also in-game notifications like a teammate dies (SNAKKKEEE!)<insert Metal Gear Solid game over music here>  a notification will appear on screen with an indicator to his or her location so you can revive your teammate. This is very useful in Elimination and Skirmish  matches, raids and missions.

Other notifications like your team taking the lead in the Crucible (World Snooker Championship cliche *DING*)  is shown in the bottom-left corner of the screen. So you can keep  on track of events during activities
Mobility 10
There's numerous button and stick schemes to chose from so you can play this game with very few issues. But customisable layouts wouldn't do any harm!

Gameplay 10
This game is a mixture of Borderlands, Call of Duty and Halo. It bridges the gap between  RPG (Role Playing Game) and FPS (First Person Shooter) genres. It's online only,  so if you don't like playing online avoid this game! Like i said before this game has all 3 expansions so there's a lot to do like going on missions, alone or with a friend, battle it out with other players in the Crucible, or  search for a team and go on a raid! With 20 million active users on the game, you can't go wrong! Destiny is a great game who is sick of the  traditional FPS and wants something completely different (John Cleese cliche *ding*)  with all 3 expansions, this game is great to get your online gaming on till Halo 5 comes out next month!


OVERALL SCORE 100%





after the dust(counter Strike clichee *ding*) has settled the Alliance has been defeated. But a handful of Guardians remain. Bungie has emerged victorious!
