Dan Webb

Infinity Ward have been busy it seems and have come up with possibly the coolest special edition I have ever seen. I mean come on, it comes with night vision goggles!! Yes, night vision goggles.

The prestige edition will include an exclusive art book, Call of Duty classic arcade game, and a fully working set of night vision goggles with a custom Soap McTavish sculptured head. No price yet, but who the hell cares ... night vision baby!! 

Check the unveiling out below. Must buy for me ... that's beyond cool.

  • Oh my god, so cool cant wait for this now
  • NICE!
  • wow. actually tempted to buy a special edition for once. just depends how much it is. but seeing as u get a code for an arcade game, which will prob cost bout an extra £10, may just have to preorder it XD
  • LOL wut? And I thought the Halo 3: Legendary Ed. was extreme.
  • I'm very impressed with this. I might talk myself into picking it up now...
  • Cool but I can tell it is going to be costly.
  • Definitely going middle class, loved the original on PC. Night vision goggles are awesome but I'm not made of money.
  • If the arcade game comes with achieves Im all set to buy the limited edition
  • rape!
  • Preorder'd!
  • @#10 - It's an arcade game ... it has to =P
  • Ohhh My God. this is the $h1t.
  • Mmmm just got aroused hehe
  • nicde
  • WOW! HARDCORE!
  • is the collectors edition the same thing as the prestige edition? i have the collectors pre ordered and heres a little tip i read on a website. If you pre ordered the collectors edition, when you prestige you wont lose your weapons !!! but that may be just a rumor
  • probably $200
  • Wow. That's the best special edition ever
  • Looks solid but the Night Vision googles looks plastic as hell xD
  • That's so awesome. Did he say, how much it's gonna be?
  • well if CoD arcade game has achievements it will be coolER but this might be my first Special Edition purchase since Viva Pinata! (I only bought it b/c thats all Gamestop had- dont judge me)
  • If I had this I am pretty sure I wwould lose all of my friends.
  • I guess I'll be going to Gamestop tomorrow. Gotta have me some night vision goggles!
  • i really wish i have enough money for this
  • Sold.
  • I was thinking 149.99. Night vision isn't too terribly expensive, and a lot depends on the quality of the plastic that holds it. What a great promotional item - I'm sure they'll sell a ton.
  • $200 For all this most likely depending on the quality of the NV goggles.. $60 Game $10 Arcade $10 Books and stuff $120 Goggles? lol
  • That's insane! I might get the Hardened Edition. Prestige looks pricey! Those night vision goggles are so tempting to get though...
  • Whoa. Just... whoa.
  • I gotta get one of those!
  • doesnt matter what i have to do for it prestige edition is mine !
  • this is a must buy for all of those cod no lives out there
  • i guess its a nice thing for all the CoD Nuts out there. i won't be buying it though..i'll go hardened myself for that steel box... simply because i see no use in the NVG edition... and because it's clearly gonna blow a hole in my wallet lol but i've got a feeling there's gonna be a lot of grown men running around their back garden at night chasing after badgers and shit with these NVG's on looking a complete plank. nice to see Infinity Ward doing something different though.
  • I can just imagine a whole bunch of little kids running around at night with night vision goggles...
  • This is awesome. I just may bite since bioshock got bumped...
  • Main thing I'm wondering, Am I gonna have to import this from America or will they make it available in UK also? With this price wouldn't be an issue as far as I'm concerned. I really want this, haha.
  • goggles are a nice touch add in an air soft rifle and i'll buy one
  • Lame, ill stay with the standard edition.
  • I'm canceling my preordering of the normal game if this isnt too costly!
  • The real question is... What kind of quality are we looking at with those? I mean you can pick up a good pair of NVG'S at any sports store for a reasonable price. And remember people they're worth nothing, but sentimental value. You will never get anything on your return. Look at what happened to the price on the Halo 3 Legendary Edition. I went into gamestop a couple months after the release and the manager of the store offered me to buy their whole stock of Legendary Editions for a hugely discounted price just to get rid of them. This is a hell of a marketing ploy, but in the long run it's worthless.
  • This is so awesome!!
  • hahahaha I don't know what I'd use the NVG for but I'd like to have them just for the hell of it. I'm probably just gonna go with the mid-range version though. It all depends on the prices, however.
  • @#36 I lol'ed at the grown men chasing badgers bit. xD
  • yes oh yes yes yes yes yes yeah!!! with the delay of bioshock to until 2010 i seriously getting this YAY! A W E S O M E !
  • Sad.
  • dang it i already pre ordered the collectors edition. time to go gamestop and change orders
  • Yes, already have this on reserve have been since it was put on the list. :)
  • @42, I will also be staying with the Standard addition. Collectors Editions, to me, don't seem worth it. At least now people will stop saying the box cover is fake.
  • beast im getting all dat
  • hell yes buy 4 sure
  • This is so unecessary!!! I must have it!
  • Yeah I think it is a creative and original call on infinity wards part. However, either the price is going to be really high or the night vision goggles are a pos. But not gonna lie, good call on infinity wards part, they will probably make a killing off of it.
  • This is gonna be like 200 dollars or so but I gotta get it!
  • Yea i cant WAIT!!!! Maybe not the goggles but the steel book case and art book looks sick!
  • umm yes? XD
  • holy shit holy shit holy shit holy shit....oh and holy shit.....I just jizzed in my pants.
  • god damn this will be expensive. those night vision goggles are expensive by themselves. http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3907.m38.l1313&_nkw=night+vision+goggles&_sacat=See-All-Categories unless infinity ward has some way of making cheap NVGs, then expect to pay a pretty penny.
  • Definitely gonna be $200. NVGs alone can reach $500, but they probably chose the lowest bidder and got the cheapest grade goggles. Still really cool though.
  • OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!!! Now at night i can see when this evil orange cat is sneaking up to eat my cats food and beat it up! YEAH!
  • WOW i dnt care what the price am gettin the prestige edition
  • im sure if you dont get it on release you can wait until the price drops. i still see halo 3 leendary and gta4 limited editions around some stores
  • i have been saving money 4 a year im buying it omg omg omg omg omg i jizzsed adjhgsdhjaJDKHSGB
  • I feel like a chump now waiting in line for Madden when it got released. I don't usually pre-order anything, but man they sure do know how to get me to order early.
  • Badgers???? Orange cats??? I would use them for one thing and one thing only. Looking at your mothers when thry didnt know I was looking!!! If the police catch me I could just say I was testing out my free toy I got with a game. so it aint really my fault, its infinty wards fault!!
  • Ima get the regular edition, maybe the prestige depending on the price. i like the night vision goggles
  • Im hearing 80$ for the hardened and 150$ for the prestige
  • OMFG!!!! I JUST JIZZED IN MY PANTS TWICE!!!! I don't care how much that shit costs, I'm buying day one!!!!
  • the night vision goggles cool but pointless, a couple uses and youll never pick them up again
  • If it's more than a hundred, count me out. I'll pick up the NV goggles on ebay in 6 months for 5 bucks.
  • I think i just messed my pants.. thats the best thing ever to come with possibly the best fps ever
  • And life gets good again.
  • Commence the jigglin'!
  • omg.
  • couldn't help but notice the "hardened edition" doesn't sport the "call of duty" title on it.
  • i already preodered the collectors edition so ill stick with that i mean really what the fuck u going to do wit some cheap nvgs
  • Dont care what it costs...definitely getting those goggles
  • I really don't believe real night vision goggles .. and if they are "real" they are obviously going to be crap. If your going to get something like that it might as well be military spec cause that and only that is the shit
  • Hmmmmmm looks interesting but How much is it going to be???
  • CoD Arcade will be 1.200 or 1.600 points. Maybe that'll be worth the higher price of the prestige edition.
  • the more i think about it, the more i doubt how good the NVGs really are... i mean, come on, it comes with a fucking video game...
  • yeah, if i wanted to spend money on night vision goggles, i'd make damn sure to get a good pair, have fun wastin your money suckas, hey least its better than a DAMN CANTEEN
  • Well hopefully Hardened'll have CoD Classic.
  • Expect like 399 dollars or something for this cause Night Vision can be expensive. XD
  • Sweet! Too bad I live in Norway. No way we're getting this.
  • @#74 The Call of Duty name has been dropped from Modern Warfare 2. Infinity Ward has given the franchise to Treyarch and now Infinity Ward is just going to do Modern Warfare games.
  • well, great editions and all, but i dont really have much money, so probrably the normal edition for me. BTW for anybody whos expecting the XBLA edition on the first COD. they said its for the pc, but it also mentions XBLA and PSN, so which is it?
  • oh my god NO WAY! thats so coooooooool and unlike the canteen from CODWAW they actually function as night vision goggles...IW you have done it again
  • ima stick wit the mid range one, no use 4 nvg
  • Wow, thats fuckin sickkk
  • I'll just get the Hardened Edition.
  • If this is affordable I'll get it for the goggles. I might even be tempted to play the game :)
  • I just hope it's not to expensive.
  • im not even a big COD fan, but man do i want those night vision goggles. they look sick. they dont look like some cheap toy either. they're the real stink'in deal!
  • Prestige edition it is!
  • im gonna play the game with those goggles on
  • #85 - IW has given MW2 the COD label again, as it says in an article on this website. Not sure why though. The full name is Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
  • beyond cool.
  • I do not buy SE but I am buying this. It is just T3H AW350M3
  • Try explaining a pair of nightvision goggles away when questioned by the police at night!
  • This is actually worth buying.
  • 85 no they renamed it with cod, i checked ign cod arcade does come with hardened. i really dont know i know i wont do anything thatmight break the nvg but i remember people reporting useless pipboys with fallout 3 ce, hope this doesnt turn out the same, as for price i realy cant see them goin too much over double the standard versions price
  • Wonder what the price will be, hope it's not to expensive, then I will totally get it.
  • ill just get the hardened edition
  • Not a CoD fan, but that is pretty cool. Will be pricey I shpuld imagine. The fanboys will have to start saving their pocket money! :p
  • Sold... don't care of the price, way too cool to pass up :)
  • Sold, possibly the best CE ever :3
  • If this was true first off the line, wouldn't it be rated M? Just a question and not trying to start a forum fight.. nonetheless very very badass collector's!
  • Instead of RP is what I left out of previous comment.
  • thats just a lame excuse to make 3 times as much money off of every copy of the game sold, and unfortunately people are dumb enough to buy it.
  • Looks pretty cool to me....I shall buy the if yon price is affordable!
  • IT MUST BE MINE!! That looks like such a cool edition.
  • Wow! this is fantastic! this is now a must buy for me, im going game and pre-ordering this!!
  • anybody know if you'll get the code in the hardened edition?
  • were can i pick up the hardened edition in the uk
  • can anyone tell me if you get the original cod arcade game just in the hardened edition??
  • i too think, that the quality of the NV can't be very good. really good NVs can cost from 150$ upwards and i dont think, that infinity ward or activision want to make us a gift neither do i believe, that the prestige version will cost 150$ itself so conclude yourself.
  • hehe..Well "real" night vision goggles will cost you around 3000 to 4000 Dollars. I will buy it for sure, but I just wanted to say, that they will not be thaaaat great! I think the ultimate edition will be 200 dollars...
  • If this isn't too expensive I am definatly getting th eprestige edition. Plus they would be selling the goggles at a loss in price but the amount they make from the game itself would easily cover the cost.
  • I want it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This looks very nice bro!!!!!!!!
  • Wait...he says you get a code to download CoD on PC. What good is that :S So you buy the CE 360 version then get a code to download a PC game? Surely you get the code to get the XBLA or PSN version? Not a buy for me, would never use them they'd just sit collecting dust and no doubt cost a hell of a lot. Hardened edition looks nice though - buy!
  • Hells yeah. Bring on the night-vision goggles :D
  • It will probably cost 3-4 million €, and due to the fact I'm not made of money, I think I'll pass on this one.
  • OMG, i pretty much don't care about the price anymore, that is beyond cool! (now i'm thinking of which LE to buy, ODST or MW2? probably MW2, i already have 2 controllers)
  • yawn. Still renting. #120, Call of Duty was exclusive to PC and was never really ported. He did so it in a rather odd way but he does go on to say it is available through XBLA and PSN.
  • BAM, said the lay-day.
  • Looks good The thing is though if they are already packaging the games does that mean its finished. If so why do we have to wait till november, does it seriousley take that long to ship them out.
  • Hopefully price isn't too much. I want to buy it but it shouldn't be too expensive:(
  • seems like the people at call of duty now know how to drag more money out of us...hold on!! who has been draggin more money out of us for years and now cod is jumpin on the band wagon ?? EA my friends!!
  • Will this be available in Australia?
  • omg Im def. gonna chase the rats, badgers, orange cats, and snakes in my neigborhood! NO ANIMAL OR HUMAN IS SAFE!! LMAO!!
  • I will just get the normal version and buy CoD classic from the arcade using my points i decided not to spend on BF.
  • so will the arcade game come with the hardened edition or just the prestige edition??
  • I wonder if people bought this, they would attempt to play MW2 with the Night Vision Goggles on. That would add a new level on enjoyment.. On the Game though, I stick to the Collector's Edition with just the Hardback. I have a hunch the Prestige one will cost too much.
  • Are these goggles just the cheap sort so pepole go OMG! NIGHTVISION! MUST BUY NAO!, or are they actually the sort where you can actually see and move in the dark?
  • I am interested to know if they make the trademark Infinity Ward NVG sounds as well. :P
  • hmmm don't think the goggles will be great might not even work properly
  • HOLY SHIT BISCUITS, I saw this last night and almost creamed in my pants. I think I may splash out.
  • I'll be honest...it just looks like IW and Treyarch have been trying to compete for the bigger Special Edition...first there was the COD4 Ltd Edt in the standard cardboard box...then WaW came with its fairly bigger Ltd Edt that came with its canteen...now MW2 comes with a huge looking Ltd Edt with Night Freakin' Vision! Though I will be getting myself some NVG...I still havent bothered invested in a canteen *cough*
  • Great i'll be able to watch that girl next door even with her lights out. No seriously if it ain't too much i'll buy.
  • Ahhh shit I just might have to cancel my full pre order at gamestop and get me the NVG!!
  • Gonna get me the Prestige set, But ive read on a Website that this edition is coming out sometime after the release of the game.
  • wow thats crazy, think al just buy the game on its own tho dont care much for the extra stuff
  • i agree with #77, still looks pretty cool though
  • can't wait for the pricing details and the ability to pre-order. Still not listed on GS website.
  • Night Vision Goggles Are Gay. They're Only Cool If Your 5. The Arcade Game Looks Awesome Though : )
  • pre-ordered!! thats the best thing i've seen, the things you could get up to with them............endless :D
  • kool, but im not made of money.
  • Thats bad ass I hate special editions but this is a must have.
  • Hope this comes to Sweden. Don't really care if they're working or not. Just fun to have the head and the googles standing and looking nice in my game collection :D
  • That's going to cost a fortune - though im getting it.
  • sweet I won't have to pee by sonar in the dark anymore!
  • What a waste of money. Cool idea, but utterly pointless if you ask me. I dont need night vision goggles to see in the dark because im usually in a well lit area with other people in the evenings. You know, a house.
  • I doubt it will be as pricey as everyone thinks. Those NVG's looked very cheaply made. Oh well, I'll still have it. Hey, it's better than the Master Chief helmet I have that I can't even wear!
  • "Holy Santa Clause Sh*t!" "You know there...not...that...noticeable...on your face." ~Step Brothers
  • #154 oops..."they're"
  • yup im creaming my pants on this 1 must have those NVG's soldier! btw just put the goggles on ur Master chief helmet
  • might have to get this lol night vision googles would be sweet and #155 i agree about the putting on master chief helmet lol.
  • i wonder how much this bad boy edition is gonna cost on my credit card lol
  • as i watch the unveiling of the prestige edition (chouru) i jizz in my pants lol
  • the night vision goggles shown in this are around the 30 pound mark, cheap and pretty useless....but there MW2 night vision!! so who cares, if got 3000 pound ones to go stalking around peoples houses at night! still buying it even though there prob just bino's with a green lense :)
  • I wonder how old this video is, it's been confirmed that MW2 has the call of duty title on the box art
  • thats just legit right there :D hopefully wont cost a boatload just cuz of the goggles Dx
  • oh sh1t i am going to get this one no matter what the cost
  • OMG, this is a sure get for me. (:
  • Im guessing 170$ if the night vision goggles are not like the Fallout 3 pip-boy watch and break in 2 weeks.
  • I'm calling Gamestop to make sure my reserve will cover this edition. That is if they get this version. Hm...
  • How long will it be for all?
  • I was actually thinking of passing on this game, but after this unboxing, I am going to pre-order the Prestige edition.
  • Just got off the phone with them and they don't have the prestige edition even listed yet.
  • holy mother of mary, ive never seen something so sick!
  • It is great and surely beats Ubisoft's Black & White Edition's of Assassin's Creed 2. Will have to change my pre-order from the CE to the PE if the price is right!
  • im gonna buy it without thinking two times!
  • That's so stupid, it's actually funny. People who get these are either retarded or... no that's about right.
  • this is a waste of money
  • This is sort of like the Legendary Edition of Halo 3, except 100x cooler.
  • I think if Prestige is under $100 I'll get it (not including tax, smartasses...) otherwise I'll go with the Hardened edition.
  • Never bought Limited Edition in my life, Waste of money, your never going to look at the booklet and figures after months.
  • couldnt give a monkeys how expensive this is, NIGHT VISION GOGGLES, unless ur in the army this is a lifetime treat
  • Peeping Toms everywhere are jizzing in their pants...
  • Sick !
  • Where do you go to pre order this
  • idc how mutch it is im still buyin it i love cod
  • This Will cost A HELL of alot
  • Awesome...I can see some kids at night running around with these on pretending they are a special ops team killing terrorist...I mean waste of money and lame.
  • @41 Who cares? It's a novelty...We all love them.
  • Buy Buy Buy!!
  • I want to know where to preorder this one. All I find at the stores are the regular game and the collector's edition. Prestige is what I want!
  • Does the hardened edition come with the? download token?Someone please reply.
  • get rape
  • I love all of you that say your buying it for sure. It's probably going to cost a fortune
  • SPEACHLESS
  • @185 lighten up. This is the best special edition ever! Day one, must buy 4 me.
  • Yes @192, token included in CE
  • I CAME!!!!
  • i herd it will be $160 so thats around £100!! so its a buy for me, world at war was fun for 4 months this will keep me happy for ages and ages!
  • OMG! i want a soap mctavish head!!! lol but anyway ill probably get hardened cuz the prestige will b pricey
  • The best CE/LE since Fallout 3. I am getting a pair as soon as this game hits. Plus we get COD for the PC as well score! I hope they keep it under $150
  • I don't see how they could possibly keep the price under $200. Even $200 sounds pretty cheap to me.
  • Haha I am totally getting this.
  • OMG so getting this. Greatest Special Edition EVER.
  • This is so gonna kill Canadians. 69.99 Normal Game 89.99 Special Edition ???.?? Prestige + TAXES
  • A nice $150 price will probably mean about £120, as the normal edition is £55 here!!! Which is a rip-off anyway, but this game is worth it Oh, and CoD is definitely for XBLA/PSN with full multiplayer, not a PC game (check the IW twitter)
  • Figure it this way... Military grade night visions goggles cost about $200-$300. These are not military grade so about $150-$160. Add on $10 for the art book, $10 for the code, $50-$60 for the sculpture, and $60 for the game. $280-$300 lulz at #202, that means about $320-$340 without S&H :D
  • how much is it? i dont care about the other crap, i just want the goggles. if the price is anything over $110 im not getting it. collectors editions are cool with a bunch of extra stuff, but after about a month or two none of that stuff is cool anymore, just extra money you spent on nic nacs.
  • makes me wanna chase some badgers but still, no buy for me
  • Hopefully these goggles aren't going to be like other "working" things that you might receive from a game or other stuff. If these really work and last a while, i'll definitely be considering pouring money into this. Beside, i'll pay any price just for the game alone
  • Just came
  • Considering that the "hardened edition" is $79.99 at gamestop right now... I wouldn't be surprised to see the prestige edition go for $150 - $160. I really can't see them thinking people will spend $200 on this edition but who really knows. The night vision goggles look like those "cheap" pieces of crap that you can get at your local toys ~R~ us. They look like they could be a simple remodeled version of these: EyeClops Night Vision Infrared Stealth Goggles http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3073332
  • Gimme a break. The goggles are for show...I gurantee it. A setup like that cost anywhere from $2K to $4k US. Much like the Flask in the last game...a POS! If you want to post something like this in your room then go for it. Otherwise you are buying a piece of plastic.
  • OMG!!! AMAZING!!! but i think im just gonna get the normal one.
  • G4 posted that it'll be $150
  • holy crap... how much is this going to cost? pretty sick though i work at gamestop... so def going to get it discount for me!
  • The problem is that in some countries like Puerto Rico Nobody knows if the Prestige Edition arrived. But I would like to buy
  • Hey, I just did some researching and found of the Prestige version will cost $2,500.00
  • I found this with a little surfing from the USATODAY website: http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gamehunters/post/2009/07/68494379/1 Looks like its going to cost you $149
  • I WANT!!!
  • i would prefer this was in Splinter cell conviction!!! imagine: tri-focal goggles!!! THAT would be awesome!
  • no one will use them a week after release
  • wow awesome, problably not cheap but awesome.
  • looks awesome just too expensive
  • he just threw the normal edich away-like him but ffs
