Thank you Bungie! As I first saw Destiny I fall in love with the setting, the sound and the whole idea. Than, with the announcement of the Ghost edition I felt like in the old days when you were standing in front of a new LEGO package - A feeling so intense that you are not able to wait any further second and you would do anything to get it. And now, after some days in hopsital, I boot up my PC and all that I´m able to find are some ebay freaks who are selling the Ghost edition for the double of the original price. Is extortion really what you wanted from this edition? It´s like a kick in the a** and I seriously thinking of never buying Destiny now because every time I see a trailer, wallpaper, screenshot or something else I´m reminded that my bad luck for the last months comes together at this really great disappointment! So, I know that nobody cares about this but I wanted to write it down anyway with the little chance that somebody read it. All the best from Bavaria, Germany Your frustrated fan Michael

    Another Nephron said just about everything the exactly the way I would have to said it. If I had A+ in college English essay writing course, that is. It is sad, not being able to get what each of us want. I really understand the feeling of not getting what I want, we all do. But my friend, sometimes you gotta roll with just whatever the life throws at you. Plus, If "Limited" edition of the something was printed/made or sold more then the "regular" edition then it really defeats the purpose of the term limited. right? Although i would defer from the term "trivial as an overpriced toy" despite the fact that i do agree with the description. Mainly due to the fact that to some, the shiny metal casing, stylishly laminated art card, lavishly printed picture on the linen cloth, and last but not least exclusively limited collection item the motion sensor ghost replica might mean more then just physical value, or item to exploit people with. The heart and soul of the destiny is really about it being the awesome MMO RPG FPS that is more of FPS then the RPG, not the collectible item that comes with it. I really wish you can rid yourself of the disappointment, even though it is just about as justified as any other, join us and have fun with the gift itself, rather than the wrapping paper. I hope your health is all well now, and wish you best of all your endeavors.

  • You should buy one of the double price versions. It's good capitalism bud.

    I got ripped of destiny ghost edition if been in a hospital so I now how it feels I wasn't in one wen this happened but i got ripped off to a LOT of people did and no one is complaining i complained im getting the limited edition off amazon only because gamestop has no more for xbox 360 and when i found out about the game the ghost editions were sold out and then the limited edition was still on amazon so i asked my mom to pre order it beffor it was to late and then THEY were sold out to [ because i have to do something to earn it ] and i was disappointed i mite still get the gamestop sparrow because of my uncle getting it off of gamestop pre order so he mite give it to me but i am working hard and then i get ripped of so all i say at least in the future make more limited editions and ghost and make the gamestop exclusive not exclusive but a timed one so EVERY PERSON with destiny can get one but not right away so not every body gets ripped of and the ghost to be a new box to itself so u can buy it yourself without getting a big ghost edition and the exclusive cards that come with it to should be in a tiny box with the ghost to so everyone is happy and not complaining do u agree or disagree

    [b]I'll try to translate OP's post:[/b] I also was unable to purchase the Destiny Ghost Edition. i've been in a hospital before, so I know how it feels, but I wasn't in one when this happened. I did get ripped off though - a LOT of people did. I'm getting the limited edition off amazon, because Gamestop has no more for xbox 360, and when i found out about the game, the Ghost Editions were sold out. The limited edition was still on amazon, so i asked my mom to pre-order it before it was to late, but...no, no, no screw this! I tried guys - I just can't do it

  • Dude, you need to learn grammar. That -blam!- is virtually unreadable, it's literally an eyesore.

  • No, I do in fact mean grammar. Clearly you're too young to be here. Also an "eye doctor" is called an optician. Just so you know, since you clearly need to be educated.

    I don't think not getting a replica of a Ghost is reason enough to not buy a game you were excited for. It's been a long time since the Ghost edition went up for preorder, and Bungie/Activision wanted the limited editions to be exactly that - limited! It's bad luck you didn't preorder the Ghost Edition in time, but it would detract from the limited part of it if more were released for everyone who wants them. A first come first served system is fair, and it's not Bungie's fault that some people buy them to extort fellow gamers out of money. I'm not a fan of that practise at all, but I can't think of anything that Bungie or Activision can actually do about it. I hope you don't let something as trivial as an overpriced toy ruin your potential enjoyment of a game you wanted to play. Hope to see you online! :)

  • In the end bungie has sold as much as it wanted. I'd rather it be rare and sold out and not have the edition sit on a flea market bargain bin because so many were mass produced.
