what's up Internet Kevin here on Tod we're covering all the biggest games to come out this year and unboxing any collector's edition that we can get our hands on and today we have the newest installment and one of the biggest franchises to come out every year the prestige edition of Call of Duty ghosts so let's go ahead and rip this thing right open and see what we've got so here it is the prestige edition noticeably smaller in size than we've seen compared to most collector's editions from the Call of Duty franchise especially compared to last year's with the care package box for black ops 2 on the front side we have the game's title with the ghost symbol and on the back we get the usual advertising and game info with pictures of all the goodies included in this edition ripping off the plastic and taking off the cover we get a simple black box that we have to put on its side and pull open to reveal its contents now first off we have the game itself in the customary steelbook case for collector's editions depicting some of the members of the ghosts inside we not only have the game itself but also some DLC sheets including the season pass which gets you access to all future map packs for the game normally priced at 50 bucks on its own and the additional bonus content for the prestige edition including the free fall map the digital soundtrack and some in-game cosmetic items like a player patch player card and background featuring the ghost symbol putting a side next up we've got a big box with a fairly small item in it a paracord strap now for those of you that don't know what a paracord strap is because in all honesty I didn't even know until we unboxed this thing a paracord strap is a tightly braided length of parachute cord aka paracord which you can wear around with you so that in case of an emergency you can unravel it to get a good length of high tensile strength cord normally used as a nice little accessory for wilderness survival scenarios and of course to continue with the theme this one does include once again the ghost symbol now all the stuff we've shown so far is also included in the games Hart Edition which goes for 120 bucks and the main reason why this one jumps up to 200 is the next and last item in this collector's edition the tactical camera now usually the prestige edition includes some kind of item that's a reference to some big new mechanic or gadget that you can use in game like the RC car or last year's little drone and this time around it's a reference to the dog that you have in ghosts who can see through the eyes of thanks to the use of a GoPro style camera just like this one it includes a couple different including a swivel mount with an adhesive bottom a handlebar mount a curved amount that you can use with a strap normally meant for helmets and a little L bracket so you can turn the camera 90 degrees there's also of course the case it comes in a USB cable for charging and moving data and a four gig micro SD card so you have something to record too now we grab some footage using it and as you can see it's a really wide lens and while it does work it's not exactly the highest quality really blurry looking at times and everything kinda has this faded quality to it so the question is always is was this one worth it well at 200 bucks this is one of the most expensive collector's editions to ever come out of the call of duty franchise and honestly I personally just don't see it as being worth it the camera itself isn't very high quality and much more gimmicky than actually useful something you might mess around with because you've got the collectors edition anyways but not something you'd want to intentionally buy this edition for now you'll notice that the hardened edition for this one is also more expensive than it has been in prior years the modern warfare 3 hardened edition came with the same stuff - the paracord strap and was a hundred bucks a whole twenty dollars less and considering the fact that paracord straps go online for about five or ten bucks it's just really not that worth it you're paying more for the same stuff overall this collector's edition was a cool idea and concept but just not worth shelling out the extra hundred and forty bucks for $90 extra even if you're already considering buying the season pass either way the hardened edition isn't as bad of a deal just note that you are paying more money than you have in the past for the same amount of stuff so there's our unboxing of the Call of Duty ghost prestige edition if you guys want to grab a regular copy of the game for yourself or try and get a hold of one of the collector's editions check out the links in description for pricing and availability now just like we did with Batman Arkham origins while we did the unboxing here on tald I'll actually be doing my first look and full review on the PC version of this game on the other channel I'm on tech of tomorrow which you can check out right here now as always guys if you've been enjoying all this holiday content make sure to let us know by hitting that like button and if you're not a subscriber yet you should be because we've got a lot of great content on the way including unboxings and checking out the next gen consoles later this month and that is not something you want to miss till then I'm Kevin for TLD and we'll see you next
