CoD will eventually die out. Anyone that's been play cod since the first one like me would start to get bored of it. All the games are generally the same. I'd like to see more games with the zombie feature but as for multiplayer...

DeluxeHazard both games deserve those numbers. COD made a fresh new start and Destiny was a great new release for gamers.


I don't believe Destiny should have that amount of players, bad game in my opinion.


Destiny should have been labeled an arcade game.

Half-assed Campaign? Check.
Repetitive as hell? Check.
Forgot about it a month after it was released? Check.

Its unbelievable that people even stand up for it being a great game. Honestly I would rather buy CoD than destiny any day.


Someone that agrees, thank you!


Yeah, Destiny is OVERRATED AF. Seems like a handheld game with console graphics. :

11 Billion dollars, fair play Call of Duty. Takes alot of work to build up something like that. Destiny getting 16 mil is somewhat expected all the same.
