They're very different in terms of quality. But there's obvious nods to Halo throughout the game.

Destiny is way better than every Halo except for the first two...

Reviews would disagree. Destiny is only better than Spartan Assault. 

I don't really care about what reviewers said, I'm speaking my opinions based on my experiences. While I haven't bothered with Spartan Assault, I have played every other entry in the series. With the last 3 entries in the series, I don't see how anyone can claim a big difference in quality.

It would have been nice to say why exactly Destiny is better,  because the difference with you and reviewers is that they atleast give  reasons why they don't like Destiny, you are just here saying that Destiny is better than Halo without any explanation..   

Why is Destiny better than Halo Reach for example? 

Well it is a Fact that I love Halo Reach and it is my favourite Halo game (very unpopular opinion though) so let me defend Halo: Reach compared to Destiny...

Why is Halo Reach better than Destiny


- LOCAL "CO-OP' Multiplayer:    In my early twenties it was custom that me and my friends would go out in the city on saturday but before that we would meet on friday evening  and we all would join in somebody's home and play Halo Reach whole night...   It is really sad that except for COD that no other FPS this generation have local multiplayer.. Welcome to the future

- FORGE: Every week some of my friends would create gametypes and maps and we had a lots of fun, we had maps where one player is infected and has to find the other players in a lybarinth, we had maps with only rocket launchers, we had a map with a big wall and two small rooms at each side and one player would spawn in one room with grenades and the other +5 players in the other room and have to try to survive his grenades that were thrown over the wall..if one person dies he would spawn in the room with the grenades...And you would win if nobody stayed alive after 2 minutes or when atleast one player could suvive two minutes..

We had a map where 4 players race in a circle and in the middle the other team would try to kill them with hitting trash to the other players while using the grifball stick...funny to watch people get killed by cones, elephant sized golfballs, chairs etc...

I can go on with this but in the end we had more than 300 gametypes and 800 maps created or downloaded... 

Local multiplayer and Forge makes for me Halo Reach already a better game than Destiny..

But considering some people may come here and say 'I have no frieds so why I care about local or forge' let me continue with other reasons...


- Spaceschips:  It is so amazing that in 2014 we have the ability to watch our spaceships in loading screens, can not wait till 2010 with Reach where we can fly with them and have battles...... Strange their is only one planet in Reach but you can go to Space but not in Destiny with his handfull of planets..

- Hidden stuff/easter eggs etc:  Basically the first 20 seconds of Halo reach that is playable has a secret that not many know...When you land on the ground their is a invisible Elite who runs away when you land...If you sprint you can catch and kill him and their is this kind of stuff in like every map..

- Multiplayer playlists: Their are a lot of them and if you don't like to shoot, you can also play Grifball (Halo's Football) or Racing or infected and so on..

- Mission structure: Something that is really missing in Destiny,  in Halo most missions have a lot of variety,  you have one level in Reach where you land on a Beach and try to get a base while drop pods are falling down around you,  inside the Base you will get with friendlies to a spaceship, with the spaceship you go to space and start a spacefight, first defend a station than attack an covenantship and invade it..... while invaded you fight around in low gravity, after that you have to get to the control room where most players would try to kill everyone or most in a sneaky way...and then you have to return where you landed in the ship to deffend a small spaceship....     And all of this in one mission..

- Skills/level up system:   Normally I like level up but in this game I don't like it in combination with the gameplay...   Try beating a boss underleveled will kick your ass but if you are a few levels higher you beat it so easy...

and I can go on...

If you like Destiny better better because it is on playstation and Halo not I can understand if something else I would like to know...

Music is something that is hard to discuss really enjoyed the music when a big fight start in Destiny but Halo Reach music is also great...

And yes graphics are for sure better on Destiny but what else? 

TLDR:  Halo Reach is better than Destiny..=p
