"(...) That need to push their moneybags aside for people once before leaving the house, there is the Prestige Edition. (...)"
I've read this sentence from an online news magazine, and added, I had to smile!
Since MW2 there Activision a Prestige Edition which always have a high price. However, this is so far the most expensive of all. For 200 gets you the following:
- Ghosts game
- Paracord bracelet (. A bracelet which consists of a material, which is used in skydiving I think it is the ripcord)
- 1080p camera with mega Accessories! (More below)
- Digital Bonus content (Patch, card background, Soundtrack ...)
- Ghost Season Pass (4 map packs free)
- Bonus Map Freefall
- Steelbook
Individual ratings:
Paracord bracelet
The bracelet does not look cheap, but is really well made.
In the middle of a COD Ghost logo is incorporated, you also have 3 different ways to close the belt. Depending on how "easy" it is to sit on your wrist.
For my taste, the bracelet is a bit too loosely even at its lowest setting. I do not know whether my wrist now is so much smaller the size as the "standard" in the United States ...; o)
Soundtrack
For lovers of Game Soundtracks a round thing!
Digital Content
Nothing particularly, rather the usual in a MP game. The launch of COD maps one knows for years. The background and the patch can stop the other show, "Hey I got the Prestige Edition!"
1080p camera
At the heart of this edition is certainly the camera!
Admittedly, at first I was very skeptical about whether it will not be such a China toy.
Now I have tested it and have to say I'm really very pleasantly surprised.
The piece comes neatly packed in a very nice COD Ghost Softcase and is very well protected by many foam inserts.
In addition to the camera you can still find the following accessories in the Case:
- 4GB memory card
- USB charging cable
- Various mounting materials for the helmet (head), bicycle handlebars or other flat surface (made possible by 3M Klebepats)
When downloading, there is the manual, and a video editing software. (Can be found at: [...])
You have the choice between a 1080p mode (30 fps) or the 720p mode (60 FPS)
One should still note that the camera always in wide-angle mode Filmt.
Unfortunately also this camera a weakness in dark areas krisselt the image as it is known also by smartphone cameras.
Conclusion:
With scarce 200 the price of this Prestige Edition is already a häftiger chunks ...
For this price, in my opinion, would have been still may be enclosed with the odd goodie.
You get the same content just without a camera in the Hardened Edition for around 120 (as of 06:11:13 - Amazon.com)
Thus, the camera has an extra cost of 75
If you just want to just play Ghosts, the Standart Edition is enough perfectly. The digital bonus content are quite nice for the MP, but there are so many backgrounds and patch unlock that are gathering dust on the CE probably soon. So you get no less content for less money. (As with other games is partially ...)
But if you want to have available a stylish box and the bracelet on the shelf, then you should resort to the Hardened Edition.
For the absolute "top freaks", who are addicted to Collector's Edition and want to have even the "geeky" Special, which remains only the Prestige Edition with a surprisingly good camera that has not turned out to be China plastic bomber.
Conclusion on price / performance
Clearly: too expensive! Although I can understand the 75 free of charge in the camera thoroughly. The stark difference for me is that of the normal to Hardenet Edition.
Normal Edition: 60
Hardened Edition: 120
Edit: I forgot in my price Conclusion the Season Pass involve. If the 50 it strikes you see the price / performance ratio is much better! =)
And that's why I had to smile at the above-mentioned set of gaming online magazine, because actually you pay for here far too much money for what is offered.
As you can see works of the sale anyway, because people like me (unfortunately; o)) exactly belong to the target group ... (Sometimes I think also, "Why only ever a CE ...": D)
Addendum:
I've added a few photos of the camera to Amazon Gallery.
Have fun gaming!
