Customer Reviews:
WOW, never been impressed with limited editions until now! By E Money
Let me start by saying that most of the time I am one of the suckers that usually buys limited editions of the games I really want (Halo 3, DJ Hero, Rockband Beatles, GOW2 with Lancer toy, etc.), however most of the time the limited editions are let downs and the trinkets just end up going to storage. Not this time, this has to be one of the best packages I have every purchased!
First the Game: This is a fun game with great single player and multi player modes. I always enjoy the multi player more then the single player and this game does not let me down. You will need a good internet connection to really enjoy the multi player, so make sure you have it otherwise you will get frustrated. Their are plenty of maps and games to enjoy for months to come and I am sure new maps will be available by the time you get sick of the current maps. The new weapons are really cool and adds to the wow factor.
Second the NVG toy: Yes this is a toy, but a very cool toy. Do I need NVG's, NO; however does anyone really need them besides the military. They are fun to play with, they feel really solid and not as cheap as the lancer that came with the GOW2 package. They work well in total darkness and look great on the display head that comes with the package.
You will not be disappointed with this package and not get buyers remorse! Enjoy!Addicting Long Multiplayer, Short Campaign but a Thrilling Ride By M. Keegan
I will just say that if you are a huge fan of Modern Warfare 2 than the prestige edition is the way to go. It delivers nice fully functional goggles that not only can be used but can be displayed on a statue of a head. The inclusion of a download for Call of Duty is a nice touch. If your not a big fan of the Modern Warfare than I wouldn't recommend it. I think with some it will have a personal touch.
As for the game, the campaign is short. I was able to beat it on veteran in under 6 hours BUT it was a great experience. Its an experience everyone should have. The cinematic gameplay moments are directed so well. The game replicates everything that Modern Warfare done so well. The story is decent and great acting. The graphics are a sight to behold that shines through the campaign and multiplayer.
I can't say enough about the multiplayer and how they spruced it up. Customizable kill streaks that unlock with experience can range from Harriers, Bombers, multiple different helos, and so on. The game is set up in a way where it gives you more customization not just from you weapons but through your perks. Everything is revamped in a better way.
What about the customizable avatars? They are there and done exactly like that of Street Fighter IV. It even lets you add icons and every match will show a slow mo of the last kill in a match. Its a lot of these little things added that just fleshed out an already well done multiplayer into something even more stellar.
Now on top of that, there is special ops that let you jump into objectives that can range from just killing a slew of enemies, race down a mountain, or disarm bombs. It is pretty challenging and addicting. Some of the objectives can be done solo or with another player. it is an exciting addition that rounds out a great game. I highly recommend this game. It might be short on the campaign side but the multiplayer adds so much from the standard modes of headquarters, team deathmatch, search and destroy and up to new modes that are placed in third person.
Short Campaign with a cool cinematic story and gameplay, fun addicting long multiplayer, and great single and two player special ops mode. A must buy for fans of the series, FPS games, and those who love good multiplayer gameplay.Amazing MUST HAVE game, only one flaw, poor value for Prestige Edition By Gilbert Garza
This is another installment of what has turned out to be an amazing franchise. If you are reading this, then you must be one of the few who people on the planet who didn't pick this game up from the release date, you should know this is the best selling game of all time. EVER. This game is one of the most visually stunning games in the Xbox 360's stable of games. From the start, you are immersed into the storyline with a nice array of weapons from which to choose. Also, there is a nice set of non-FPS action sequences where you get to have some diversions (mputain climbing and driving various vehicles just to name a few) so that the game won't become tired and monotonous. The controls are nice and intuitive, the is nothing short of what you would expecy from a bame of this caliber, and the storyline once agains hooks you in from the very start and is excellently written.
However, it is in this aspect of the game where the flaw lies. Even though the game has a great storyline, it is WAY too short. Upon completeing the game, which depending on your skill and the difficulty level you choose you should finish this game in absolutely no longer than 8 hours, the game feels incomplete. Like most huge franchises these days, it is no secret that this game was made with the intention of there being a third installment.
So bearing that in mind, this game is still great. A+ on graphics, controls, multiplayer, sound, variety, and storyline. D minus on length.
As far as this particular Presrige Edition is concerned, yes, you get a bonus download of Call of Duty, you get an art book and a "steel-like" game case and a special "making of" DVD, and yes, last, but most certainly not least, you get the infamous night vision goggles. One word on the NVGs. They work and they work semi-decently. You can see perfectly on front of you almost anything within 10 feet. Outside of that, things start to get fuzzy and not so clear, with probably an extreme mazimum limit of about 40 feet. They are constructed more as a kids' toy, like a "my very first set of NVGs" Tonka toy. They are all plastic, and to be honest, not very well-made. The design for them is more suitible for that of a child, which is ironic, because this set is EXTREMELY delicate and if it were to fall into the hands of a child, it would be broken by day's (or night's, as the case may be) end. The switches contained on the set are: on/off, green/black and white, IR booster on/off (an invisible infared "flashlight" so that the goggles can see farther and make an existing area brighter), a rotary dial for focusing, and a rotary dial for adjusting the viewscreen so that both eyes can properly see one image. The headgear is also very poorly designed and anyone with a head larger than an adolecent will have serious truble making them fit, if at all.
My review for this set is thus: The game is wonderful and obviously a must buy. The download of CoD is a really nice added value. The steel case, the bonus DVD and art book are okay, but not worth spending more than $5 extra. Finally, the NVGs are honestly a disappointment and do not justify the purchase of this package. My recommendation is that you save youself some serious coin and just buy the game all by itself. You can download Call of Duty from Xbox Live, if you really want it, for a little more money. The rest of the items do NOT justify the $80 premium, even including the MW1 download.
