More Early Reveals For Bungie’s Destiny
Leaks seem to be de rigeur for Bungie’s new game, codenamed and possibly titled Destiny. First, court documents relating to legal disputes involving new publisher Activision revealed some of the general parameters of the game and the intended products, platforms and publishing schedules.
Now, apparently a third party employee forgot a flash drive at a restaurant, and supplied the gaming press with a few more documents and a few pieces of what appears to be concept art. In response, Bungie appeared to acknowledge the leak as legitimate, and replied with a bit of concept art of their own.
Since the leaked images have all been watermarked from hell to breakfast so that sites like IGN can stop other sites from stealing their “found footage” so to speak, I’m only going to take a close look at the shot Bungie actually wanted us to see, as well as the text quoted by some of the leak stories, and only describe the other images to try and back up some interpretation of the text or the official image. If you really need to see those other images, I’m sure the Internet will find a way to accede to your wishes.
Between the official image and the quoted portions of the text, it’s possible to build up a few tentative ideas about what to expect from Destiny, and the kinds of ideas and themes the new game might share with past Bungie works.

Master Chief and Cortana – Halo 4 Fan Art
From shadow-of-insanity:
This was VERY experimental and one of the most time consuming things I’ve done so far. One of those things you start doing months ago and every so often go back to do a bit more. I was really happy with the initial line art, not sure I pulled off the coloring on this, though. I tried to get the MJOLNIR armor as precise as possible, so hopefully I did it at least some justice. Hope you like it!

The Gym – A Halo 4 Map for Training Skills
From Schooly D:Similar to The Gym from Reach, The Gym v2.0 is a place where you and your friends can practice your Halo skills. “Focus” is the watchword at 343 Industries and in keeping with that spirit, we’ve set up a number of stations to focus your training efforts for maximum benefit. It’s the perfect place to warm up before an upcoming night of matchmaking, or just to idle around listening to the soothing sounds of waterfalls and far-off explosions. If you’d like to download the map, it’s on my File Share (GT: Schooly D) along with the “Training” game type for optimal use.

Community Member of the Week: SilentA98
Every Monday, we feature a community member who does one or more of the following things: routinely goes above and beyond for their fellow forum members, is a positive and active member of the community, and/or sends me mass amounts of cat pictures. This week our Community Member of the Week is SilentA98. Read a little more about this particular person below, then hit their profile to learn why size doesn’t matter!
Gamertag: SilentA98.
Origin of Gamertag: Well, the first part of my gamertag comes from a derivation of things. I always think stealth is the best weapon, but for my original name it didn’t work. SilentbladeA98 didn’t fit, which was my original gamertag before I had LIVE. It’s mostly resemblant of my favorite attack, a quick back smack with a sword. The latter part of my name, A98, was my Service Tag in Halo 3 that my friend gave me. It just kinda stuck. Also, for those who read the Star Wars novels, you may remember A98-Nate as one of the Clone Troopers.
