No you won't! If they buy this then they will only need to buy Rise of Iron. Stop talking guff :wink:

Buying the complete collection is better value than buying this then rise of iron.

With all due respect guys, this would have been a wonderful deal before Sep 20th when ROI launched.

You can definitely go for this one but most of the new content will be locked and some of the old ones as well. You will need to buy the ROI expansion to actually play the game. So you have spent £16 (Taken King) + 25 (ROI Expansion) = £41 in total.

Instead, you can go to Flubit and buy a Destiny Collection for Xbox One for £35, saving you £6. If it doesn't matter to you, very well go for it.

And guys, saying someone is wrong doesn't make anyone any lesser of a person. :smiley:

Well, this is my view of the deal. And I am a huge fan of Destiny so i would never put a deal down just like that. Been playing since the Gallahorn was first sold by Xur in Year 1 :smiley:

No it's not, I'm guessing you haven't played this like most of the games you troll on?

Same for PS4: http://www.tesco.com/direct/destiny-the-taken-king-ps4/161-6777.prd?skuId=161-6777

Bargain, I honestly believe this game is the best value for your money.

No point going for this now as Rise of Iron is out. Get the destiny collection if you really want to play this awesome game :-)

yeah no point getting this, with the new expansion you'll find yourself having to rebuy these expansions and Base game again just to get the new one if you get into the game enough, which you will :wink:

You should alter your description, The Taken King is last years expansion. Rise of Iron is the latest chapter now.

Buying the complete collection is better value than buying this then rise of iron.

No it's not, I'm guessing you haven't played this like most of the games you troll on?

​yeah but forgot you could buy it individually this time haha, I got it when the entire collection was cheaper than the single upgrade to rise of iron

Jealous we didn't get that on PS4 :disappointed: Would have loved a Digital version instead of disc

yeah I didn't have digital version either so that was a bonus :smile:

I have Taken King and loaded it up yesterday...it's crippleware now. Shut off from most activities. Same as it was after year one. It's good you can buy the new dlc on its own this time. I love the game tho. It's probably 'technically' the best game mechanic around at the moment. Crucible is always good fun. If you've never played Destiny before, then buying the collection for £35 seems the best value as far as I can see...or you'd be buying this for £16 then most likely want the dlc (to properly open up the game) for an extra £25 very soon after........or have I missed something? Hopefully I've missed an amazing deal on the dlc!

Buying this would be pretty pointless as you the have to add £25 for the ROI dlc to make it relevant.
Look for a deal for the collection as buying this and RIO at the moment would be £40.

I had this when it first came out and i bought the first addon.

Never bought any more and haven't played it since so id need taken king and rise of iron addons?

Guessing it would be cheaper to buy the latest release?

You're guessing wrong as usual.

My son is buying this with his birthday money. He doesn't want to spend all of it on the collection, so for him this is good compromise.

Turk is an incredibly active member on this site who posts amazing deals for those of us who wouldn't otherwise notice, berating him and purposely commenting on this deal to say it's not a good deal is your opinion. Don't then hate on someone who has personally saved me a shed load of money on games who is a decent dude!

All he is said is the The Collection is better value. That is not berating. If you buy this and then decide to play RIO it works out more expensive this way as the DLC is £24.99.
The reply he got was fairly harsh and if it were me I would have reported it regardless of the standing of the person in question.

With all due respect guys, this would have been a wonderful deal before Sep 20th when ROI launched.

I was stating the fact that buying this and then the rise of iron dlc is NOT the cheapest option.

I didn't berate him, you seem to be slightly biased.

Thank you.

As a player who has poured plenty of hours into this game, to settle the argument...

If you're buying this to play story missions, play a bit of crucible and doss around then this could be considered good value for money at £16.

If you're buying this with the intent on playing end-game content (New Raid, Trials, Iron Banner), being able to obtain all available gear and don't want to be level capped then you're better off getting the collection and saving yourself some money.

You are welcome, I hate bullying.

​It's really a very good game but it is a complete rip off in terms of how much they charge for dlc and microtransactions. I played it from day 1 for months and it takes over your life. Every time they bring out dlc there is a new full version which you think will be the ultimate collectors special edition. They really have you tied in because you can't play huge parts of the original game each time the new dlc hits. Now they have stated that when Destiny 2 comes along your character won't transfer across. All that grinding will go to waste... Not voting hot or cold.

The level cap is still 40 but the light level has gone up from 335 to 385 and i think will go on to 400 for the hard mode end games.

Yeah unfortunately that is how Destiny works. It updates every year and makes the old content irrelevant. I hate that but well we played it for a year now is the time to move to the new content :smiley: ROI will unlock everything with new content and new game modes.

I agree with the comments about this not being worth buying and better off with the Collection if you want to play Destiny due to Bungie's aggressive approach to new DLC, you'd think the only limitation would be you couldn't play the new content but most content bar the story missions, original quests and the raid is locked out. When the DLC is current you have daily strikes, heroic strikes, nightfall strikes, daily crucible and weekly crucible which are essential for legendary marks and other rewards are not accessible if you don't have rise of iron even if the nightfall strike is a non rise of iron one (you can still do some of the daily story missions). Even in Crucible where there's only three or four new maps, almost all the crucible modes are locked out bar three 'classic' ones. Even content like the raid is relatively useless because they haven't carried it forward so no-one plays it any more.

I take my comment back then, I didn't realise they had shut a lot of stuff down unless you had ROI. I just thought that in my opinion ROI is the weakest expansion from the ones they have released. It is good but short.



Apologies as above.

And you still can't spell it?

Haven't had the chance to play this so think I will give it a go. If I enjoy it I'll wait for a wuaki deal to buy the new DLC, saving myself a quid :stuck_out_tongue:

Heat added!

surprised by the amount of petty remarks in this thread.. not cool.

Anyway, as some have said, prior to sept 20th this was good value, now youre better off buying the collection that includes RoI so cold from me on price, but awesome game.

good price and will last long enough to work out if you need Rise of Iron or not - by the time you've worked that out, it will have dropped in price

There seems to be two listings for this game on the site, a bit odd :P

For those that want a digital version and have access to 360/ps3 you can grab taken king for legacy consoles from amazon for a tenner and then get the upgrade offer (which I think is around £33 at mo)

not really a deal as more expensive than collection disc version, but if you want all digital then its only a few quid more....

Great deal. Heat added.

Hi I purchased this game online yesterday looking at the comments as there is a newer version does this mean that the expansion packs included is this game are no longer active and you are left with only the original basic game?

I personally hate this game simply cos my b****y husband is addicted to it,he's had it since day one,has all expansions etc,he's an addict,if your hubby/partner is a gamer be prepared to get put in the back burner,

Hi thanks for your reply much appreciated I will probably only play single player just looking for a good FPS for a PS4 I picked up at the weekend. Thanks again.

Good deal, great game but the collection's edition will come down in price soon, although if you get this you could just wait for a RoI deal with gold or something along those line, it's not worth the £25 tag.

Said this in the other thread but will repeat it here, I have the Legendary Edition on PS4 from launch, the code in the box for the Taken King (the disc is just year 1 destiny without any dlc) expired 15/09/16, I have no idea if it actually did expire on that date or if it will be accepted though.
