Try just updating the eclipse.ini check for

-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20130327-1440.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_64_1.1.200.v20140116-2212

then update the -vm option:

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65\bin\javaw.exe

I guess you should redownload the eclipse :( @PatrickLafferty – Alvaro Silvino May 10 '16 at 13:02
Thanks for the advice but I have beaten you to that idea. – Patrick Lafferty May 11 '16 at 08:55

Try adding --clean to your eclipse.ini that seems to solve a multitude of problems.
