Activision has confirmed the suggested retail price for the Modern Warfare 3 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-3)Hardened Edition: $99.99, which is $20 more than previous (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/07/14/modern-warfare-2-hardened-edition-will-run-you-80/) Hardened Editions. TheModern Warfare 3 Hardened Edition comes with a one-year membership to Call of Duty Elite, bonus in-game content, a Juggernaut XBL avatar skin, a 100-page field journal and new disc art, all in a fancy steel case.

So far, Gamestop (http://www.gamestop.com/xbox-360/games/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-3-hardened-edition/93178) and Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/Call-Duty-Modern-Warfare-Hardened-Playstation/dp/B005K8LNZI/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1315067210&sr=8-8) have the Hardened Edition listed at $99.99, while EB Games Australia (http://www.ebgames.com.au/search?title=Call+of+Duty%3a+Modern+Warfare+3+Hard ened+Edition&utm_source=webmail&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=ModernWarfare3) is charging $158 for the same package. Modern Warfare 3's jump in price may be attributed to the one-year Elite access alone, which is valued at $50 and bumps users up to "Founder status," which includes an in-game emblem, player card, camouflage and an XP boost. Or, it may all go to pay the air-conditioning bill at the Call of Duty XP Event (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/Call-of-Duty-xp-2011/) -- we hear it's awfully temperate in that hangar.http://www.joystiq.com/2011/09/03/call-of-duty-xp-event-modern-warfare-3-hardened-edition-priced/
