Upcoming genre blender Destiny, the latest project from Halo creator Bungie, was first demoed at last year’s E3. Sony brought the game on stage at this year’s show with something better than just gameplay footage. Gamers will be able to pick up Destiny along with a Glacier White, 500GB PlayStation 4 upon its release.

The console bundle will give gamers a chance to pick up the popular Sony console along with a game the company hopes will prove to be a hit the size of Halo. Along with the uniquely colored console, matching controller, and the game, the package deal will also include a 30-day trial of PlayStation Plus.

Gamers awaiting entrance into the open sci-fi world of Destiny won’t have to wait much longer. The game heads into beta for PS4 users on July 17. For those who find that to be too far into the future, PS4 owners can try out the alpha starting Thursday June 12 through June 15, 2014.

Destiny will receive a multiple platform release, debuting on both the PS3 and PS4 as well as Microsoft consoles Xbox 360 and Xbox One on September 9, 2014.

When Sony took the stage at CES 2023, PlayStation fans didn’t know what to expect. The company had a history of using the tech expo to showcase new gaming hardware, like the PlayStation VR2, but its plans for the show aren’t ones that tend to leak beforehand. Left in the dark, eager PlayStation fans tuned in to the CES live broadcast to see what the future of PlayStation might hold.

But nobody expected a UFO to touch down on stage.

Memorial Day is coming up, so you're probably wondering what games you should play on your PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5 over the holiday weekend. Lucky for you, a new batch of games were added to the PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra game catalog earlier this week, and it brought plenty of games well worth your time. Three in particular stand out to me; download them today and try them out over the next few days.

The first is a Western from Rockstar Games that needs little introduction and is a must-play if you haven't experienced it yet. The next is an open-world game that kick-started a new series for Ubisoft and turns 10 next week. Finally, a retro PlayStation 1 game that just came to PlayStation Plus Premium offers up a good time if you enjoy sports or racing games.
