No Prestige Edition for Modern Warfare 3

4.7
Modern Warfare 3 will not come in a Prestige Edition, Infinity Ward creative strategist Robert Bowling tweeted. The Modern Warfare 3 Hardened Edition is priced at $99.99, $20 more than previous Hardened Editions, and includes a one-year membership to Call of Duty Elite as its major selling point. Perhaps without the distraction of making augmented-reality scuba goggles or one-size-fits-all MW3-branded combat boots, Infinity Ward and Activision were able to focus on making the actual game as great as it can be. Perhaps.

laofuhmous I think they make a 5 dollar profit from it. knowing the elite is 50 a year. and map packs are 14.99 and most likely its 3 maps a year - 45. unless theyre giving out exclusive content besides maps.

Hey man there are going to be 12 map packs 1 every month.Elite is $50 and the game is $60 and they're selling it for $100 I don't see the profit here but its a bargain.If you dont beleive they talk about it all during the cod xp event

There's going to be DLC every month, not map packs. DLC can be things such as themes, new weapon camo's, new game modes, OR new maps.
incorrect They are releasing the game with only 6 maps on disc there are a total of 25 to 30 maps to be released... there will be a map pack every month.

DrPhil321 I never understood why people pay extra for a metal case....it's not like you say "OH EM GEE GUYZ LUUK AT MAH SHINEY METAL CASE!!!!" If you do..........no....... The only thing that should matter is the game. I'd take the disc in a paper bag if it meant paying $50.




We don't only pay for the metal case. We pay for 1 year elite, avatar outfit, metal case and artbook thingy.


Wow an avatar outfit!!!! and an art book!!!!!!! That's soooooooo impressive!!!!

to all the dipshits it actually works out cheaper to buy the hardened edition because you get all the map packs for it+a 1 year elite membership
*enter comment about not getting map packs because theyre going to be *****
^ if thats the case then stop talking about it


We don't get the premium edition to CoD: elite. They are giving us a special membership but we don't get access to the free map pack downloads.

We get Founder Status on Elite, which can only be gotten with the Hardened edition or buying standalone premium before Nov. 13. So we get Premium and Founder status.
