Shocking: There Will Be No Prestige Edition Of Modern Warfare 3

mw3-head

If Modern Warfare 3 was to keep with tradition of the last few Call of Duty releases — it would offer a $150 Prestige Edition. However, it looks like Modern Warfare 3 decided to not go all out. Infinity Ward’s Creative Strategist Robert Bowling recently revealed via Twitter that the Hardened Edition will be the only collector’s edition for Modern Warfare 3.

The Hardened Edition of #MW3 will be the only collectors edition available this year.

There you have it folks. Your wallet may rest easy now. Maybe they couldn’t think of a cool extra this time around. I was expecting a prestige edition with a nuke, but it looks like I was wrong. Whatever the edition you get, you’ll be able to get your hands on Modern Warfare 3 on November 8th.

    Wow I am shocked that MW2.5 won't have an Ultimate Epic Hard On Edition. Oh well, off to play some Battlefield 3.

    No prestige edition with a cool toy included? No reason to buy Modern Warfare 2. Oh, I mean Modern Warfare 3.

    They said "this year" in the sentence. Wait till next year. By around February they will release it to get more cash money.

    Obvious Answer: $15 map pack DLCs. Lots of them.

    WOW! I'm really surprised. Maybe they're turning a new leaf, or or could there be something more diabolically expensive on the horizon?
