Everyone, I have powers. Everytime I decide to buy a game, even months after release, it immediately plummets to less than half price a week or two later. If there is a game you all want cheap I accept PayPal donations so I can buy it and you'll all get it cheap a week later. :stuck_out_tongue: seriously a good deal, I've barely touched the surface with this game!

I think you could well be right, given that it's 14p cheaper than the Rise of Iron DLC sells for on the Xbox/PlayStation stores. Cracking find, heat added :smiley:

For other games yes but not Destiny due to the way Bungie don't bring older content forward, given the choice of buying vanilla and each DLC to play the game along the way or buying this collection I'd choose the more expensive option. The original Vault of Glass raid is one of the best pieces of co-op gaming I've played but it's never been updated so it's too easy, no-one plays it and most of the rewards are no use because they're so low level. The co-op mechanics in the Taken King raid are also superb but again no-one plays that either any more.
So although you're getting what appears to be a lot of content, it's mostly just the Rise of Iron content you can play, you do have access to all the story missions but they're by far the weakest part of Destiny with a terrible story and uninspired design while the raids are really the highlight and now people only regularly play the Rise of Iron raid.
That said I still think this is a superb deal as you need Taken King to play Rise of Iron so to get the lot for less than Rise of Iron is clearly very good just don't go into it thinking it's like a normal GOTY edition where you're going get tons of content.

People said Destiny lacked in content when it first came out. What is everyone's view on it now with all it's DLC.

I bought this after that burst of PS4 500gb deals, I'm very much enjoying it. However I have got through it very fast, especially since this comes with level boosters. I just have Rise of Iron left out of the DLC main story and a buvh of quests I need a fireteam to do (ignoring of course the instances/dungeons and other stuff there is loads of)
The story isnt great, The mission layout is bad (spend minutes in loading screens just to hand in the one quest you have and fly back through the loading screens to the planet you were on for that quest)
Its basically just Halo with the lowest level of RPG elements they can get away with and gear grind tacked on... I love it.

To date, with all the DLC it's approaching a full game. A mega rip off and testiment to Activisions greed ...and mugs like me who buy it. Problem is it plays so well but after a while the repetition does your head in.

An expensive bloody do! Releasing content yearly at full game prices is a **** take

Quite a few judging by the budgie lfg forums, and our clan alone has 123 members. I'm a day one player. The only thing you'll miss out on with this full version of the game is the anticipation of playing the raids when they first came out, the first three raids are very easy now, and Prison of Elders is also a doddle.
