I have to get it...I have always wanted Night Vision Goggles....and here they are. As long as it is under $200, I am getting it.

they confirmed that it will cost 150$. Hardened edition will be for 80$.

for people who thinks it is a useles gadget i have only 3 simple words:

PEEPING

AT

NIGHT

150$ for a game and ability to see naked ladies on the other side of street? that's a bargain price. now if it had only xray vision to see through clothes

I encourage you to look into the price of REAL night vision goggles, here I'll start you off: http://www.nightoptics.com/c/NightVisionGoggles/Night+Vision+Goggles.html

Notice something about them? The first generation starting price is almost $500 and it only goes up from there.

Do you honestly think that a gadget with a maximum market value of $100 is going come even remotely close to emulating the cheapest night vision headset around? This is market gimmick thats about as good as a display trophy, expecting anything more than that is asking for dissapointment.

i was joking, but again he said those are REAL NVG so while i doubt it would be like those used by the army, it's a nice present - definitely better than some Ecto-1 keychains or some other craptastic stickers. personally i think it would be good PR if they would release like 500 copies of numbered Prestige edition worldwide with real NVG for 150-200$. of course they would lose like 20-30k on those, but it would be damn awesome.

Considering how much MW2 is gonna make them they could easily swallow a couple of million in promotion like that... but they won't =/ and trust me, that thing is about as good as the SFIV figurine (ie shit). I stop buying collector's edition due to shits like this. I'd rather get 2 game at that price :P I think the last one I bought was Warcraft III and only because I wanted the Artbook (It was big-ass too! Not like those pocket handbook crap)

that's why i'm getting Hardened Edition - for extra 20$ i'm getting Call of Duty 1, artbook and steel booklet.

I see no advertisement for the ps3 version.. mhm could there be something going on?

Anyhow yes this is unbelivebly good, I might get it for 360 and PS3, but I might not get it at all due to the fact im getting tired of countless COD games(FPS's in general)

In the video PS3 artwork is shown, I know CoD 4 SE did not come to PS3, but this one is

pah too big way to much clutter, standard pc addition for me thanks, assuming i even bother getting it.
I am getting sick of FPS. where the hell are the platformers and adventure games from the ps1 era and even the ps2 era.

God sake this is starting to make me sick



Nobody's perfect. I aint nobody!!!

Killzone 2. its not a fps. it a FIRST PERSON WAR SIMULATOR!!!! ..The true PLAYSTATION 3 launch date and market dominations is SEP 1st

How can you compare a figurine to NVG....I mean...Night Vision Goggles look so damn good....definite buy.



nightsurge on 14 July 2009

Lol, this is awesome. And some people thought the $150 Halo 3 legendary edition was expensive! I bet a good working pair of NVG's would be about $100-150 plus the cost of the game and extra content, so this should be about $200 or more....

EDIT:  I see someone said the total package is only $50.  This makes me slightly question the overall quality of the NVGs but it still sounds sweet!

thats pretty awesome :p
