Default Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Prestige Edition announced

http://www.fourzerotwo.com/2009/07/1...stige-edition/
http://www.joystiq.com/2009/07/13/mo...-night-vision/ has photos.

And it's ridiculous
Night Vision Goggles

No price seems to have been announced yet, guessing it's going to be rather expensive.

At risk of NokkonWud calling me 'negative nancy' or something, it's not called Call of Duty any more is it?

Night vision goggles are pretty epic, I can see that weighing in at a lot of money

Why just why? I can understand a figurine as they can be quite cool. Even the metal tin you have to question as it will sit on your shelf just the same as the normal version. Not unless they are going to be putting in some DLC for free in the more expensive versions? But even then the DLC you could just get separately.

Iirc the Call of Duty name got added to the title again the other day. Sure I remember reading a news story. Don't really care either way as everyone knows what I'm talking about and I've yet to see anyone other than a Press Release call it Modern Warfare 2
Bit like RE5 when the 'zombies' were infected, they still got called zombies even by the PR guys

Ah I see. I suspect they were too worried about people not knowing wtf it was

edit = quick look around and the cheapest NVGs I can see are about £270 - this is going to be one expensive collectors edition unless Activision take a massive hit on each unit!

I'll admit right now, I'd be tempted. I'd be like the Terminator. Driving around with nightvision but with no lights on (does it work, if there's enough twilight?)

Imagine the possibilities of having a proper pair of NVG.
