    If you read the contract between activision and bungie I believe. It states the Destiny Game #1 to be PS3, Xbox 360, and possible Xbox 720. Then listed under Destiny Game #2 it stated PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox 720, and PC. So it's possible that because they have a 10-year development window after the release, they may remake the game for the next gen consoles and port it to PC as well.

    As for the game its so early days its im sure all this will change. As info is released

    I was actually speaking with a Gamestop rep today, he said theyre going all big throughout their store about advertisement. He said its Xbox/Playstation only and will be cross platform. (Howd hell they get cross platform where Defiance couldnt though is beyond me)

    It's not cross platform. Just watched the Destiny livestream debut on IGN. On a side note, the game looks very interesting and from what iv'e gathered from the stream this game is going to be something nice.

    Yup, I watched that too and I'm pretty sure they mentioned that the consoles won't be able to play against each other.

    It's somewhere in that video, don't really remember when.

    Also, Gamespot says:

    At this point, the only two platforms Bungie and Activision have confirmed for Destiny are Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Is it coming to PC? No comment. Is it coming to next-gen systems? No comment.
    So it might come out on PC too, eventually. I doubt it will be anytime in the near future though. Shame, it looked pretty interesting, even if it's not actually an MMO. ;)

    From what I can tell here at work, it looks like it was only just announced...I would hardly call something that looks like info was released so recently you could damn near lick the ink off the screen "The Elephant in the Room". More like the Elephant that just entered the city. It may or may not be armed.

    Agreed, though even if it may compete with Defiance when it releases, most of what I've seen is that it won't release till next year.. by then Defiance will have a strong player base i feel;

    Bungie doesnt belong to MS anymore, Destiny is Activision Blizzard project, and one of the biggest ones along Titan. Bungie signed 10 year contract with AB back in 2001. Its big thing for AB, no doubt we see mega marketting.

    I suppose theres hope Titan is fantasy if this is sci-fi. One can only hope about Diablo MMORPG. Let Wow be for kids, and make another more mature/dark/horror fantasy MMORPG could make sense.

    Destiny is a Bungie project, they have supposedly been working on it since ODST days as there are rumours of some Destiny related images hidden though out the game.

    As far as I am aware Activision does not own any share in Destiny, they are just under contract to publish the games
