    Did anyone go out and get them? Early reviews are better then I expected for them.

    Just got mine this morning, haven't played it yet, cleaning the house so I can sit down and play it in piece.

    Strange thing, only paid €20 for it, don't know what the girl in the shop was thinking but I'm not complaining. And no I wont say where I got it:D

    Will give a review later when I have played a few games.

    I think he was talking about the Night Vision Goggles that came with the Prestige Edition of MW2 mate, not the actual game itself. We all know how awesome the game is. ;)

    NVG = night vision goggles, they can be used in airsoft games at night.

    They just happen to be made in china and given away with a computer game this time.

    /sarcasm mode on

    omg don;t know know this will like define the look of airsoft for the next couple of year !! loadout aeg accessory !! its like the airsoft version of vogue, and the night vision will

    /sarcasm mode off

    have to agree not really 100% airsoft but considering we have had about 3 or 4 thread about these dame night vision lets just get it over and done with :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭Shiva


    Nah Puding.....I'm PMing The Master and KDouglas straight away and requesting a ban for Rew and O1s1n :)

    *ducks and runs*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Considering this game is pretty much going to influence loadouts for the next 12 months, dominate safe zone talk for the next 3 weeks, have people breaking their legs over ****ty nightvision, and giving Masada fifteen more catchphrases to use for the next 4 months, I find it highly airsoft related.

    You get a fake Soap McTavis head and night vision goggles....

    that should be enough to justify it in here. Infact, Im PMing Devore to request a COD6 threar stickied on all forums...Stat!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,818 ✭✭✭Private Snafu


    Was wondering if they were any use myself! Can anyone confirm the prestige edition was limited to gamestop here?

    Has anyone else completed this yet? Its awesome :D

    Right.....listen up, Punks....

    I submit, for your edification, the three reasons why you all need to shut the hell up talking about MW2.

    1. My XBox is away being repaired, and wont be back until Monday or Tuesday so I cant play.

    2. My broadband is down until Saturday, so I cant play multiplayer, even if I did have an Xbox to play single player.

    3. My other half is away for the entire weekend, so if I had got broadband and an XBox, I could have been playing all weekend, but I cant, due to reasons 1 and 2.

    Bastards :(

    The reviews of them I have read seem to be quite good but this one clearly says that the IR LED's on the front light up and are very visable as Masada and my self predicted.

    http://www.wired.com/gamelife/2009/11/modern-warfare-2-night-vision/

    In saying that I would actually like a set of them for ****'s and giggles (but not airsoft)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,099 ✭✭✭Tommyboy71


    Holy crap there huge. That is the first pic I have seen of them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,291 ✭✭✭✭Gatling


    looks like something argos would sell as part of a spy kit for kids


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 8,679 Mod ✭✭✭✭Rew


    Ladies, what part of "ill go smack down" on you if you start on about the game again is dificult to understand? and to the idiot who cant use spoiler tags properly or edit a post to use spoiler tags YOUR AN IDIOT!!

    so i'll just stick to the one i got in aldi's last year


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 617 ✭✭✭k99_64


    Literally just got em out of the box, yep they are big and look a bit strange,but they be light and easy to carry around, 2 modes, long range (IR is seen miles away) and short, stealth, mode. also green and white vision modes.

    For long range u can see targets moving but dear god dont move or else u cant see squat and short range is excellent, pretty good vision out of it.

    will try out with glasses and goggles on later.

    :)

    I didn't read them I just binned them, but now i'm ROTFL on the inside. Go you!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,039 ✭✭✭mcshape


    Anyway, I got the NVG's, And im going to use them, You dont need to use the ring IR light if you have Gucci IR flashlight accesories on your person!, They are a bit big but a damn sight better than the Aldi effort i bought last year that you have to refocus every time you want to look at something and also had permanent 3x Magnification! (not too easy when trying to negociate your way through a forest at night!)

    I get back from a week ban for calling someone 'a clown', and this is basically the first post I read.

    Nice!

    whats a spoiler tag ? im not being smart i don't know......are those my feet?:D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    well i finally put the controller down....many hours spent today, blinds closed in darkness...

    I think the natural blurry eyed night vision I've just developed, is better then the ones that come with Cod4..


    Btw can we just talk bout cod6 here for a week, since **** all else is happening, and atleast theres no cheaters or over the limit guns, theres not even box mags...


    Its a great place, I want to move there...

    Aside from the endless respawning AI in-game which are a complete pain in the ball bag which is making Vet difficulty very very taxing.

    For fear of having to actually having to carry though on the various warnings start banning and infracting people thread closed.

    Spoiler tags are used to hide spoilers like
    this

    Stercus Accidit posted an intesionsly broken spoiler that wasn't actually a spoiler it was a joke, meant to look like a noob accidentally giving away the plot of the game. He didnt account for the fact that as soon as anyone saw it they didn't actually read beyond the first few words (which looked genuine) and then hit the report button. I deleted the posts because they looked like they were posted by a dribbling idiot who was revealing the key points of the game, not to mention this was after people were told repeatedly that this thread has nothing to do with the game.

    Were not having a big discussion about the game simply because there is an off topic thread and a games forum for such things. If we allow this then next thing people will want threads on last nights football match or the latest action flick.
