    The Steel Book is 80$. So the Prestige has to be at least 100$.

    Wow! That's going to be one expensive edition! I think the NVG are a cool idea.

    Kinda random... I saw some night vision goggles at an Army surplus store that I really wanted to get, but ultimately decided that I didn't really need them.

    Such disrespect for the items :p. I couldn't help but focus on how he seemed to toss everything left and right.

    I must say the Collector's Edition is awesome. I'm guessing the price is going to be in the low-mid 100s, so I won't be buying it anytime soon.

    I heard one source saying the PC may not get it and another saying it would. :confused:
    I wouldn't be surprised if the PC version doesn't get it considering how we get shafted all the time, such as not getting the collector's edition of Mass
    Effect when the 360 got it. :(

    How can this be $149 (confirmed price i think) if NVG are way more than that. These are probably those ghetto ones with green tinted plastic lenses lol.

    NVGs are not really that expensive any more. I remember when they were, but nowadays the average camcorder has nightvison. The one they included is kind of outdated cause of it's size alone. At least for personal use. Some military still uses that sort of design.

    So will there be a PC Prestige Edition then or no? I'd be willing to part with $120 or so for something like this, but $150 is a bit too steep.

    And actually, the cheapest night vision goggles I've been able to find are about $80, most start over $100. So if they are actual decent NVGs, then it might be worth it. Granted they do look cumbersome. At least would look good for a Halloween outfit!
