According to an apparently now-pulled page (via PlayStation LifeStyle) over on the European version of the official Killzone 3 site, Sony intends to offer the game in three different flavors: standard, limited and collector's editions. As you can see in the screenshot above, snagged by PlayStation LifeStyle, it appears there will be bonus content offered -- specifically, the "Blood and Thunder" map pack, a gift card for an unspecified retailer, and a pair of Helghast goggles.
It's not too shocking, considering people gobble up working RC spy cars and statues, not to mention the pioneer in goggles-plus-game bundle, the Modern Warfare 2 "Prestige Edition." But with Killzone 3 incorporating 3D tech, we wonder if these proposed Helghast goggles will work with that? Probably not, but we're still trying to confirm the exact nature of these bundles and if they actually exist. Right now, Google is helping us lean towards this actually being a thing (check out the first result).

I don't even OWN a PS3, but I'll preorder this as soon as I can if this is true.

If the goggles either light up/glow red like the Helghast one's do or actually work as 3D glasses then I'm in.

oh my god, The goggles NEED to be 3D glasses.
Seriously, what a collector's item that would be.. It could be one of the most awesome pieces of gaming memorabilia in like 10 years, when our TV sets don't need the glasses anymore. Please make it happen, Sony!

If they don't have 3D functionality, what about a built-in headset and mic? That would be more useful to the majority of consumers out there instead of appealing to the 0.005% of the population that has 3D TV's right now.

What if these goggles were compatible with the new Sony 3D HD TV =O. That would be epic
