On Tuesday, we got the prices for the Modern Warfare 2 Hardened Edition and it turns out that we’re not so happy about the impact these special editions are having on our wallets. And who can forget about the Prestige Edition, complete with night vision goggles, which costs $150.

Fortunately, CheapyD from CheapAssGamer brings us some relief with a promotion over at Amazon, offering $10 store credit for reserving any of the versions.

So, if you’re really planning on investing on those goggles, Amazon is probably the best way to get the game. If you’re looking for even more of a bargain, then you’re going to want to combine it with a 50% off trading promotion, along with Amazon Prime.
