The practice of making extravagant "Collector's Editions" of video games is as old as gaming itself, but it looks like Activision is about to kick it up a notch.

When the anticipated Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is released on November 10, its $150 Prestige Edition will include what's surely the most extravagant bundled bonus ever -- a fully-functioning pair of night-vision goggles.

An Activision community manager made the announcement in a Youtube video, where he unboxes and shows off the goggles, which carry the game's branding. The Prestige Edition also includes a head-shaped display stand for the goggles, an art book, and fancy limited-edition packaging.

Modern Warfare 2's night-vision specs will join a proud tradition of crazy video game pack-ins, including Halo 3's infamous cat helmet, The Sims 3's plumbob-shaped USB drive, and Fallout 3's oversized watch and bobble-head doll, which was featured in the game, too.

It'll retail at $150, and considering that even basic night vision goggles easily run over $100 on their own, it actually sounds like a pretty good deal. All the same, as far as we can determine, it's the most expensive retail video game bundle in history, discounting games that came with their own custom controllers.

So if you're keen to play Modern Warfare 2 (as the follow-up to easily the best game of '07, you should be) and you're keen to spy on your neighbors, you'd better get saving.

wow this kicks ass. i hope they are decent night vision goggles and not some crappy ones you can buy for your nephew at toys r us

Hmmmm the quality can't be good, they prob copyed the lens's from those infomercials
You see that you can buy sunglass's the can turn the night to day bla bla bla

Still really cool....

It'll be more cool if they could integrate it with the game

I'm in! Sign me up for a pair..

That games gona be sick.

you'll probably go blind 20 min into the game...

Yeah, one flashbang and you're even more screwed with them on.

Its the same technology in night vision in video cameras. Theres a small camera and infrared LEDs around the camera. You see up to about 30 feet basically, with this set up.

Definately not the same technology as high end night vision
