These days, posters and art booklets just don't cut it. If you want to produce a special edition that's going to seriously drive those all-important pre-orders, you need to come up with something special. Last month, the StarCraft 2 Collector's Edition arrived in a massive weighty pack, complete with a book, behind-the-scenes DVD, soundtrack CD, and a version of the first title on a USB card.

Good, but not quite good enough.

Activision has now released details of the Call of Duty: Black Ops 'Prestige Edition'. Priced at £129.99 and only available through HMV, Game and Gamestation it comes with a remote control surveillance vehicle, 'inspired by the RC-XD from Black Ops Multiplayer'.

With a range of up to 200 feet, the RC-XD Surveillance Vehicle has a fully-functioning remote camera that transmits both TFT colour video and audio to its operator.

Hmmm. This package also comes with all the goodies from the slightly more modest Hardened Edition (£49.99), which boasts a custom Black Ops limited edition medal, an exclusive Black Ops Avatar outfit and a four playable co-operative map pack.

So, yes, buy a shooter and get your own miniature spy vehicle. How is anyone going to top that? Give us your suggestions in the comments section...
