News PC Xbox 360 Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

With actual real SAS film.

Activision has told us that persistent Call of Duty 4 fans from the UK have forced the publisher to release a special edition box here - just like we forced it to do a Beta Test here.

And boy oh boy has it got some treats in it. Best of which is clearly the two-and-a-half hours of SAS footage that details the elite soldiers' history from their formation in the Second World War up to modern day conflicts.

There's also less interesting stuff like a "Making of" documentary and level walkthrough by developer Infinity Ward, plus an absolutely spiffing hardcover art book with lots of lovely concept pictures from the game - most you probably have never seen before.

You PC owners will have to download your guide from BradyGames on the Internet, but otherwise everything will be the same.

The special edition featuring an SAS DVD made by actual real soldiers with guns will go on sale alongside the normal game on 9th November. Prices are bombing baddies at around the GBP 39.99 mark for PC and GBP 49.99 for 360.

Cod4 beta was the most fun I have had gaming in years - perhaps since the early days of BF2 - and didn't cost me a penny. Didnt think the game was out til 30th November so now I can't wait until the 9th.

This might be a stupid comment, but I didn't think there were any SAS in CoD4 :/

I guess I just assumed it would be about US Marines.

Of course the SAS are in CoD4, who do you think the blokes with English accents shooting Russians were?

SAS filmy stuff sounds suspiciously like it will be presented by Ross Kemp

It's a good package but I don't have the space for another SE/CE after Mass Effect joins my shelves. It's all DVD cases from now on until I can be bothered to build a new shelf.

I pre-ordered my special edition from Play yesterday.

I can't wait for this - game of the year if you ask me.

I personally think that the MP Beta was better than Halo3 (SERIOUSLY), I cannot wait for this, and finally, Special Edition content that is actually desirable!!!

I absolutely cannot wait for this....

The buy/not buy decision for this one rests on whether or not the name tag colours are changed to a more colourblind friendly pair.

Here's hoping, since the beta was kinda fun.

Sounds good. To be honest though I just want the game! The Beta was the best game I've played for ages!!

@CreepinJesus: Really? I think it's one of the best, by a long shot actually. Beats the holy hell out of MOH.

Though I am more interested in Brothers in Arms, to be honest.

Who actually sits pouring over a book of concept art for a game like this? Why on Earth would you care?

There's room for CoD4 and UT3 I think. There's no Redeemer in CoD4. Or big walky thing.

To promote Modern Warfare 3, Activision will be holding a two day event called Call of Duty: Experience! The official Call of Duty: MW3 site was launched on May 18. It currently has an interactive map that was seen in the MW3 teaser trailers. I'm sure we will see the perks soon.
