I'm sorry for ranting but it seems like a blatant cash grab by Bungie/Activision to sell more. I've been a PS3 guardian since Alpha. I've spent more than $100 on the base game and now you are making me spend $70 more ( $30 for RoI and $40 for the PS4 rebuy). Destiny is great game and all but this is just pathetic now.
Rant over/.
Sorry for ranting once again.
EDIT: I'm not mad that they are dropping old gen, what I am mad about is me rebuying my content on a newer console.
EDIT 2: If people are complaining about me paying money to upgrade TTK, why is Bungie giving us TDB and HoW?

I had to re-buy the Uncharted collection, Tomb Raider, Ratchet and Clank and God of War for PS4. Why do you feel special?
-
Would it be a bad idea if they at least discounted it because you owned it on the old gen? Then again I'll probably just go to gamestop or equivalent and buy it dirt cheap with the one or two $ warranty and still come out pretty descent. Heck I'll come out even if I bring in some old games to trade. I love it when they give us free games and then take the game I physically owned in for trade. In time it adds up.

2 RepliesBecause you are cheap and should have bought a PS4 a long time ago and now you must make up for your years of frugality.

Its a "10 year" planned game. Did you really not think this was going to happen at some point? Legacy consoles were not going to last another 10 years upon release.

8 RepliesYou people are what's wrong with society.. always wanting shit for free.. what about other games.. people had to do it for most every game on ps4.. stop complaining, you bought a new console so you have to buy a new game.. it's really no different than going from xbone to ps4.. different console, different game

This happens with ANY game you had on a last gen console. Upgrade and you have to buy the new game. Only a couple times have I seen offers to get a free next gen game upgrade if you recently bought the old version, and that was when the consoles initially released. Stop whining it's not bungie commanding you to buy the ps4 version, it's everyone who makes games. And come on most people spend 100 a year on call of duty. So 170 for 2 years of destiny is still below that, and cod players don't whine about it... But that's none of my business... lol

We had to rebuy it for Xbox One also. We had to but 2 copies actually for 360 and then 2 copies for Xbox One since my husband and I both play it.

Just wait till D2.

Look up the terms of agreement. Under the section change to agreement. It talks about any changes to the agreed program and what both parties are entitled to per the agreement. Let me know what you think after reading it.
-
EVERYONE...or at least for the people who upgraded, went through the process. You're not alone but not much you can do about it.

One word... Capitalism...

1 ReplyBecause Activision...$$$$

2 RepliesI understand your frustration. This doesn't sound like a decision that Bungie or Activision made, nor can control. Licensing and license transfered of digital content on PlayStation and Xbox is solely up to Sony and Microsoft. I suggest getting in contact with them. It is also entirely possible that Bungie is working with them to get a upgrade path for those on last gen. It just might take some time. If you are not successful in upgrading from Sony, I suggest waiting till Rise of Iron drops before spending any money. Take care fellow Guardian. The community is behind you.

1 Reply$40? I saw the Legendary Edition on PS4 for $30 last week, IIRC.

Edited by PopsAutismo: 6/27/2016 5:29:30 PMI wish they were easier on the Legacy group. You guys had a great run and this is no way to go. A $30 digital game code emailed to owners of the Legacy consoles would be nice for you guys and they would still make money.

Same reason I had to buy the final fantasy games I already own for ps2 / ps3 for my ps4 and vita. Or the Nathan Drake collection for my ps4 even though I own them all for my ps3. That's life. Different console, new game. That's just how it goes.

7 RepliesSame reason I had to repurchase Final Fantasy Tactics on my phone when I already owned it on Ps1 New platform, new game, new purchase

No ones forcing you! [spoiler]Sorry but someone had to be that guy. [/spoiler]

4 RepliesYou only have the license for the PS3 version. If you want to play it on PS4 you have to purchase the license for that system....pretty standard actually
-
They did this for a big cash grab. If you believe different your blind. When Activision is behind something, you better bet it has to do with money and nothing else.
