MojoKid writes "Bungie, the company that brought forth Halo, is embarking on development of a new MMO title called Destiny that is aimed at being unlike any gaming experience we've seen. There are few hard details available, such as a launch date or pricing, but Bungie gave a preview that teases the game and showed off concept art. It's a large-scale MMO set in a post-apocalyptic world, but the gameplay and social interaction is supposed to be far more natural and fluid than previous generation MMOs. There will apparently not be a subscription model, so gamers won't have monthly fees to deal with, either. Bungie plans to develop a complex storyline with Destiny over the course of the next decade. There will be 10 books, complete with a story arc, so it follows that the world will evolve in a manner of speaking even as people participate in activities to change things within it." http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Halo+Developer+Bungie+Reveals+Destiny+ and+Its+Vision+of+MMO+Gaming%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.l y%2FWGW1Xe) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgames.slashdot.org%2Fsto ry%2F13%2F02%2F18%2F157233%2Fhalo-developer-bungie-reveals-destiny-and-its-vision-of-mmo-gaming%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dface book) http://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/gplus-16.png (http://plus.google.com/share?url=http://games.slashdot.org/story/13/02/18/157233/halo-developer-bungie-reveals-destiny-and-its-vision-of-mmo-gaming?utm_source=slashdot&utm_medium=googleplus)

Sounds like it's going to be another micro-transaction riddled MMO that will be on Steam within a year or two of it's release. :/
