Military Equipment bundled with Modern Warfare 2

Criminals and terrorists beware! Expect a rise in citizens arrests after dusk this fall. Reason? Video game publisher Infinity Ward bundles a Night Vision Goggle (NVG), typically considered military equipment, within their limited "Prestige Edition" of Modern Warfare 2 (MW2).

Infinity Ward's much-anticipated first-person shooter is bringing out the big guns, rather big 'nods' (military terminology), on November 10th this year. Gamers and military gear-heads alike may purchase the NVG equipped limited "Prestige Edition" for an unbelievable price of $149 announced Infinity Ward, compared to an approximately valued $3,000 military issued AN/PVS-7 NVG at OpticsHQ. MW2's branded NVG reliability and usefulness remains unclear, unlike the tried-and-true military issued.

What's included within the "Prestige Edition?"

• Modern Warfare 2
• Limited-Edition Steel Book
• Limited-Edition Behind-the-lines of MW2 Art Book
• Token to download original Call of Duty
• Night Vision Goggles branded with MW2
• Sculpted head for NVG display or storage.

If $149 burdens one's recession-effected wallet, the aforementioned goodies are available without the NVG's for a $79 "Hardened Edition." Watch Robert B., Infinity Ward's Community Manager, unbox and describe each edition. What say you? Will you purchase the "Hardened" or "Prestige Edition?"
