Review: Call of Duty Black Ops Prestige Edition RC-XD

Call of Duty:Black Ops Prestige Edition RC-XD. Coooool!

Ok where are my priorities?! Call of Duty: Black Ops is one of the most anticipated video games of 2010 and expected to top the king of first person shooters, it's predecessor Modern Warfare 2. One of the ways to pre-order the game was the special "Prestige Edition", which along with various other things, comes with a radio controlled vehicle, modeled after an explosive device in the game. Although it doesn't explode, it DOES come with an on board video surveillance camera in its nose which transmits back to the controller.  

I'm not much of a first person shooter fan to be honest-in fact I royally suck at them, but I've had an interest in these games, mainly because there has always been a link between those who see COD as an inspiration for their love of Nerf. This time around though, my purchase of Black Ops has almost nothing to do with the game; my priorities are with the RC car...and that's what I'll be writing about in this post:)

Preview: Call of Duty Black Ops Prestige Edition..sans explosives

I'm really interested in the proposed Call of Duty: Black Ops Prestige Edition. Actually, to be honest I'm easily impressed by any game that comes with a real life toy. Especially one that's as cool as this. Ok, so it's just a radio controlled car that's probably only worth 30 bucks. But it does come with a mad camera and mic on board, and a view screen in the remote. And it is modeled on the RC-XD explosive device from the game. Only it doesn't blow up. Which is probably a good thing:) The game itself is sure to rock- even though the Call of Duty series of first person shooters are ones that I royally suck at.
